Heel Cena will be cheered right back to face Cena. He was only booed because his act got boring and it was forced down our throats instead of giving us the choice.
Well look at the Cena thing this way. Heels always get their heat until they go up against who...Cena. Then the heat is overpowered by Cena hate and the heels get cheered. With no face Cena to go up against it's almost a mystery of what would happen to Cena's reaction. He could possibly get the desired heel reaction or he could get the polar opposite of people wanting it so bad he ends up getting cheered like crazy.
It seems to me that Orton gets very stale as champion - long matches don't necessarily suit him all that much. That being said, I did find his Iron Man match entertaining - probably because of the no holds barred rules allowing some flexibility.
The face turn, as it was natural, has actually been good. I don't think he'll ever be a complete 'true' babyface ala Cena or whatever, as it didn't suit him a few years ago and won't suit him now - especially with the tattoos. However, as a tweener he is going to be cheered by large sections of the crowd. Keep him in that position and he can face heels and faces - the crowd can decide who to cheer for then.

Having a tweener go up against a face is never a good idea. You either fuck up the tweener or the face.
Keep him going against heels....The only reason he should go against a face is if they are going to turn that face heel.
From the looks of things, it going to be Batista vs Orton vs Cena battling it out. I would have preferred Batista retaining and going one on one with Orton. As it stands now, the crowd will be split between Orton and Cena. If they are really serious about Orton's face run keep him away from Cena for a while.
Yeah, you're probably right, but the propsect of a NEW tweener face is just extremely interesting to me after all these years. And it says a lot when I say RANDY ORTON is interesting now again.
The followers easily determined that they were getting behind Orton. The turn came so fluidly it was ridiculous. His feature has not altered at all, he's still a psychopath in the ring, only with the capacity turned up to 10. As I've said in numerous other gist, WWE would be wholeheartedly insane not to run like angry with this one as it's their best shot at loading the anti-hero face gap Austin left broad open.
