DISCUSSION - If Legacy is destined to split it, should ORTON be the one to turn face?

Here is why I believe that Randy Orton, as opposed to Ted Dibiase, should turn face.

1) Orton is by far the bigger star. The marks will always be more inclined to get behind a 'big name.'

2) Dibiase doesn't have the personality as of yet. Yes - Dibiase will get a nice pop if he turned face against Orton, but afterwards? I believe that Ted's pops will die down considerably once his program would finish with Orton....and he'd become a bland face (think: Test from 2000).

3) I think Priceless would be better served by sticking together. Let them further enhance their identities. Priceless turning on Orton, if played off correctly, could be similar to when D'Lo Brown/Mark Henry turned on The Rock back in the day.

4) Orton is not the same guy that he was in 2004 when he turned face. When Orton had his last face run 5 years ago, he played the role of a 'happy go lucky' pretty boy that kissed the fans ass. This time around, things would be different. Orton would be a complete badass (similar to how he is now), and the fans would be far more receptive.

So in conclusion - I think it would be better for the WWE to turn Orton face, as opposed to Dibiase, when Legacy splits up.
