I expected that from TJ, not you. And tits are always a win. Well, not always there is Mae Young.
I sorta disagree. Look at Morrison, he tries this method as a face and fails horribly, has no charisma as a face, imo.
Yeah, but look at Jake Robert's promos. Orton is quite possibility most similar to him in the viciousness aspect and Jake really made it seem like he was going to kill his opponents and made his promos more intricate and thought-striking.
Yeah, I did say that and I thought about it as I was typing, but remember my wording was this:
I imagine it's like, John go out there and say some mega inspirational speech about how you are who you are and you do it for the WWE fans. He'd probably do the rest and I mean, he DOES bring some raw and legit intensity and passion to his promos, but it's just so dragged out, if you get what I mean.
I can't really argue Morrison, as I like to know what I am talking about before I set off and argue. Less chance of looking stupid that way. lol.
Has Orton's viciousness ever been in question? I think that is one thing he has always been really good at getting across. Which makes me wonder exactly how good of a face you can really be while punting people in the head. Hmm, more on that later. But, like it was said, with his sociopath persona, promos weren't really a focus point. If he turns face, he may really need to work on that.
Yep, and you saw me say in the SB, 'that was probably Orton's greatest promo yet.' THAT is the intensity I'm talking about. And yeah, I know it gets the job done, that's why I said we'll wait and see. Sometimes you need to defy realism to keep people's interest. While it makes sense, you need to keep people entertained, you know? When shit starts picking up with his character, people start getting interested and cheering. Coincidence? Nope.
Agreed. I HOPE that this Orton thing continues and is a huge success but nothing is for certain in the WWE. Well, disappointment is
Randy Orton and John Morrison should be tweeners imo. They both have that heel feeling, but they are also good for face pops. Neither of them should always face heels, or always face babyfaces. When John Morrison was just turning face, he still did heel-ish things, but he also did baby-face things that was REALLY entertaining. Randy Orton is in this stage now and I think we all can agree that he is more entertaining now, then he was two months ago.
Good point. But, I don't know that either of them have what it takes to sit on the fence and hold their own while waiting for those moments to come along. When it comes down to feuds, it always makes more sense to have a good guy and a bad guy. Who knows though, it may be easier that way to pit them against a variety of other people, see how the crowd reacts and who meshes well and go from there. But then, that makes sense, so it'll never happen.
