Also it occurs to me that this may be the result of fatigue on the part of the writers with the current characters. It seems like WWE is only at its best when dealing with someone new that NEEDS exposition and introduction
WE also have noted multiple times, almost every program Orton has been in since turning face hasn't been ABOUT him, but rather uses him as an unstoppable force for the heel to struggle and fail against. Which is strange to say the least.
The only feud hes had since turning face I thought had potential was him vs. Punk but they didn't really go anywhere with it beyond it being Punks justification for revenge. I felt like that mightve been a good opportunity to really write more about his character, but i guess in that situation how DO you book it in such a way that doesnt make Punk look like the face and Orton the heel?
Orton NEEDS to be a heel with his current character but I think theyre afraid of growing his character to be more facelike and messing up the appeal he has for a lot of the fans.

edwardsdv and swordz9 are basically the comedy heel tag team of this topic, why would people be taking them seriously?
