You have two completely different characters who have completely different motives. The only similar quality is that they're not your prototypical, fan-pandering face. Other than that, from in ring style to mic work, there are limited similarities.

Austin was good on the MIC? Please... I'd rather have listened to George Bush speak..

Just another redneck.

He got fame for rebelling against McMahon/faces/heels and being edgy.

Ortons done the same. Can't trust either of them.

Both are assholes in real life which helped their on air character TREMENDOUSLY.

I think my generation remembers Austin for the beer truck, the monster truck, or the countless acts of vandalism in the back. Not some great promo like The Rock or Cena/Miz is use to doing.

There is one clear difference between Orton & Austin. Orton can actually wrestle.
