Orton and the Female Demographic

**el bobbo** · 04-13-2010, 01:04 AM

We all know that Randy Orton has gone from cowardly heel to a bad-ass anti-hero in the past couple of months.

Because the WWE is trying to target more women, is this an underhanded marketing tactic? If you take a television drama such as House or Law and Order SVU, the main male character is an attractive yet damaged and unstable craftsman dedicated to nothing but perfecting their craft and getting what they want at any cost. Randy Orton seems unapologetic about everything he does and I am willing to bet that the women watching will turn on Cena if Randy is built up correctly in the next couple of months.

With the WWE trying to cater to women (and let's face it, the Diva's division is a joke to both sexes) will Randy become the Dr. Gregory House or Eliot Stabler of professional wrestling?
