I don't like Randy Orton because he's an average wrestler in an above average spot, just like I don't like JBL for generally the same reasons.

Orton is bland on the mic and if you really listen to some of the shit he says you'll realize that. He's BORING on the mic. He's got a good voice, a tad bit of charisma, but he doesn't say anything particularly funny or interesting or intimidating.

He's unbelievably average in the ring and it shows anytime he gets in there with someone who isn't Benoit, Foley or Edge. He's been carried in every great match he's ever been in, and his move set is ridiculously small. Clothesline. Cross body block. European upper cut. Dropkick. Inverted neckbreaker. RKO. Anything else? I can't think of any. For a guy with such great athleticism and youth, he has the move set of Kevin Nash.

So yeah, I hate Randy Orton because he's incredibly bland and boring and offers me absolutely no entertainment value.
