Randy Orton to Shawn Michaels

[Jordan]

Shawn Michaels recently compared Randy Orton to himself in an interview, I don't know where the interview is so you will just have to trust me. He was talking about his attitude mostly though, how Orton is cocky like HBK was when he was young.

I used to be such an Orton hater, I hated his mic skills and ring skills more than almost anybody on the roster. One thing you can't deny is his look, and presence. Recently he has gotten a lot better in the ring, just tighter, and his mic time hasn't been wretched.

Anyway I was just thinking about that interview and the comparison and its so true. Obviously their out of the ring attitudes are basically the same, they think they should be on top. Now take HBK around 1994 and compare him to Randy Orton. Their mic skills, in ring abilities, and persona are basically the same. So basically I have realized that Orton has a ton of room to grow, but is a great wrestler as he is now. Hopefully he could one day be as big as Shawn Michaels.

And Shawn still does just as many rest holds as Orton.
