- Vince McMahon said at the WWE investor call this morning that the company is on an upswing in terms of the talent cycle lately. Vince said that early indications from the Royal Rumble show that a talent shift is already happening but he expects WrestleMania 27 to be a major launching point for new talents.

- Vince was asked if WWE fans were buying into new characters yet and Vince said he feels the new stars were really getting over and that he was proud of that. Vince noted that fans' reactions at live events are a good way for officials to judge.

Vince was asked who the next big WWE Superstar is. Vince joked about WWE talents possibly listening to the call and then praised WWE Champion The Miz. Vince noted that Miz has been with them for a long time and fought his way to the top of the company. Vince also named Alberto Del Rio and Randy Orton (of all people) as "new" characters on the rise.

Don't get Orton being mentioned as a "new" character on the rise but good for ADR and Miz getting praise from Vince.

character change from The Legend Killer to The Viper

That transition been made like 2 years ago so it's not really new. I guess maybe he is talking about the Viper character being a anti hero but it isn't rising though.

When I read that my first thought was maybe Orton's change from heel to face. Possibly something that will stick for a while?
