More natural, yes... but are you telling me if you saw him walking down the street, you would think 'Holy shit, this guy could kick my ass'? I don't get that impression from Orton.

Ehhh.... shaved head, black and gray tattooed sleeves.... decent muscular build... he could definitely be imposing to someone who doesn't know him. Plus, the way his character has been depicted, not being freakishly bulky doesn't hurt him. Plus, in the age of UFC and MMA, you'd have to be damn near retarded to acquaint bulk with that terror type feeling that wrestlers are supposed to evoke.

If you saw BJ Penn walking down the street you wouldn't necessarily think "Holy shit he could fuck me up," but BJ Penn most certainly could (unless you're Frankie Edgar), and he was the main event for a sold out UFC 118 so the fans obviously don't think that way either. Hell, usually the most jacked guys are the biggest pussies.

Sorry (well not sorry) but you're fucking retarded. Seriously, you are one of the reasons these guys think they need steroids.

Randy Orton is about 240 pounds if not more. I'm sorry, but any world you're from, that's a big guy. He's a little leaner than he was before but if you saw him in person you'd shit yourself.

God, internet fans are such twats.

I hardly see why that was worth a neg rep and such a hostile comment, but whatever, I can take my lumps. I admit I'm in the wrong about a few things, for example, BJ Penn is a perfect example of 'judging a book by its cover' and being wrong. He just looks like an ordinary guy you'll see in the street. I'm glad to be corrected about that.

I'm not saying every wrestler needs to look like a gorilla, veins bulging and ripped, but I am saying they should have *some* definition. It's a sad fact, but when I go to independent shows here, I see some sorry excuses for 'wrestlers'. Guys who look like a breeze could knock them down... these same guys have the nerve, for lack of a better word, to do press slams, guys who obviously don't take the time to go to the gym and at least get in shape (they're probably 240 pounds, but they're more wide than big). I look at those guys and think they have no place in the ring.

Now... as for Orton, yes, he's a big boy. I'm not taking away his build, his height or his weight. Yes, he obviously looks after himself and isn't a fat slob. Randy looks like a killer in the ring to me, but the area I come from, I could get a dollar a dozen for every crew-cut tattooed guy I encountered on the sidewalk. That's why his 'style' does nothing for me and I wouldn't blink an eye if I saw him walking down the street, shirt on. If he got pissed and removed his shirt, getting ready to throw down, then I would second-guess myself.

It's my belief that a wrestler has to look larger than life, he has to look like the world's toughest son of a bitch and either his body or his ring work has to show that. If I can't buy a guy as a threat, he's an ham-and-egger. That's just my belief and I'm stuck in that mindset. I'm hoping that clears it up a bit and explains my 'fucking retardness'.
