Well he isn't exactly Cena or Rock on the mic. Although that's obviously due to his gimmick.

Orton is the future of WWE along with CM Punk Cena and Miz.

wasnt he ranked by pwi as top wrestler in the world a couple years ago?

Agreed, although I still believe he was bland on the mic before his viper gimmick. He doesn't bring that charisma, where I think the Miz excels at in the modern roster (makes up a little for his inferior technical ability).

I think the RKO is a great move, very quick and decisive. His "voices" theme suits his character well too.

the voices theme is one of my faves

Definitely. I remember reading some fans who cringed when they first heard it, but they soon changed their opinion when they saw how well it fits.

I much prefer it over his older theme.

Yeh I didn't like it at first too but now it's one of the best themes around.

Anyway in terms of tough enough, Andy Leavine won. He received a slap by Vince and a stunner from Austin.. didn't really sell the stunner well though.

That Katie Vick storyline was beyond crazy, it was quite disturbing. I don't think they've ever come close to that level since.

having vickie guerrero with edge doing all that crap, almost made me pull the trigger back in 08.

I was hoping Cena would get stunnered on RAW.

It's been a long time. I think the last stunner happened when Cena was just starting out. I can imagine the reaction if it happened again now.

Moment of the year for me so far.

My favourite Stunner at 7:35. Quite the good segment, back when Austin was carrying out his investigation.

by Grande_Milano Tue Jun 07, 2011 12:55 pm

I hope they dont screw up R Truth and Alex Riley development, but they can

by Onyx Tue Jun 07, 2011 12:57 pm

I hope they develop the younger guys as well though, R-Truth is 39.

I find it funny how so many don't remember him as K-Kwik and think he is one of the "new brigade".

by Grande_Milano Tue Jun 07, 2011 3:04 pm

Drew Mcyntire (spelling), Zac Ryder, Alex Riley, Corre, Sin Cara, Kofi.

So much talent around, and yet we get Cena winning championships.

Plus, getting back veterans like Goldberg, Angle, Booker T (?), Hardys, Dudleys would not be bad. They all around.

by Onyx Tue Jun 07, 2011 3:46 pm

CM Punk and John Morrison too.

There's one guy I can't really figure out. Ted Dibiase.. I felt like he was going to get a push a while back but it's died down. I still feel he can be more than just a mid carder.

by The Madrid One Wed Jun 08, 2011 1:59 am

dibiase? that guy looked like a great heel in the making, whats up with cody rhodes?

he up to anything?

by adnyana179 Wed Jun 08, 2011 1:59 am

IMO Punk is great on the mic, while Morrison has pretty good technical ability. Combine them both and you'd have a certain main eventer.

Rhodes is in a dark and disturbed character at the moment. It was funny at first, but now it's dragged on a little. As I said earlier, he's one who I see great potential.
