Crayo said:He was a sadistic heel, it's hard to book that as a face. How can you logically book him punting a random face in the head for no reason? Plus, WWE have no idea how to book a face other than "Smile at the crowd, do some silly jokes and win all the time". Orton is horrible to watch now.
Well, Orton isn't allowed to punt anyone in the head anymore, so it's a moot point. But more to the point, it's possible to show at least borderline heel characteristics even if you're a face. Imagine someone wronged Orton and he showed up at their house (like HHH did to him) and attacked them in front of their family. Their family would be innocent and would hate to watch said heel get a massive beat down (this could also be booked to happen at the arena as well, if said heel's wife or girlfriend or whatever was in the audience) but Orton would deliver it to them anyway. It's not impossible to book Orton as a face and not have him be boring. Considering some of WWE's heels are/were boring as well, it's not like him going back heel would automatically be the answer to making him interesting again.
