It seems to be like everyone has already written off Orlando Jordan as wortless in the ring. I've heard he's good in the ring, but he just hasn't had a chance to show us.
Right from the get-go, Orlando Jordan was overshadowed by JBL. We only got ONE promo (by JBL I might ad) about why Orlando Jordan joined him. It is no secret that Orlando has had a tough life, so why not join up with a man that can make it easier? Why not have it revealed he sends his second paycheck from JBL to his brothers and sisters? Try and give the guy a character, a personality. Sympathy is a great asset for heels, so why not try and give it to OJ?
At least have Benoit come out and say he knows what Orlando's trying to do with the US Title. Have Chris tell Orlando he's realised he's trying to hold that belt under the radar, and not defend it so the division wears out. Then at Summerslam have Orlando come clean and say that he was trying to be discrete with the belt, not because he wanted to have a long reign with it, but because he wanted the extra paycheck that comes with holding the belt, so he could send it to his poor family members. Try and breathe some LIFE into OJ. It is possible.
It seems that Orlando Jordan and Sylvain Grenier are very similiar. Both guy show obvious talent, both in and out of the ring, yet both guys are given shit for being "green". I wonder if that has anything to do with both being trained by Rocky Johnson?
