Brady Wants WWE Match ๐
I am glad to see Orton back in the ring and not making 12 Rounds: Reloadedโsalvaging movie franchises that Cena couldnโt make successful. I like watching Orton and Del Rio go at it.
Their feud is entertaining. These two guys donโt like each other and are both willing to do whatever it takes to winโwhich for Del Rio means cheating.
The dynamics of this rivalry are slightly awkward, a heel versus an anti-hero. Orton will never be the โfaceโ that the WWE once wanted him to be.
As for the match, I think that Del Rio will have a good run, employing some tactical methods of cheating at some pointโsurely Ricardo will be involved. But, for all of the effort that he may put into this match, I suspect Orton will prevail. The Viper will finally strike with an RKO to end the match. Iโd like to see another one of those infamous counterattack RKOs.
Winner: Randal Keith Ortonย
While Iโm excited Orton is back in a program with someone, Iโm not a fan of this feud. Iโve never been a Del Rio fan and would much rather see the โfeud that never wasโ between Wade Barrett and Randy, but alas, we have this.
Like Michael said, the feud is kind of awkward between two bad guys, which puts a bit of a damper on this match. What happens when someone (Randy) gets the win? They both move on and forget it ever happened? I just canโt see a logical payoff from this feud unless Wade Barrett gets involved at the end of the match.
Donโt get me wrong, both guys can go in the ring, so Iโm sure weโll have a solid match at HIAC, but I canโt imagine Del Rio will get the victory. I see Randy Orton out-heeling Del Rio, evading the usual ADR tactics (Ricardo), and using his own to get the win, probably handing out at least three RKOs in the process.ย
I just canโt wait to see how Randy Orton turns an armbar attempt into an RKO.
Winner: Randy Orton
I like this feud. I like this feud a lot. Alberto Del Rio is coming off an awful program with World Heavyweight Champion Sheamus and anything looks great when compared to that.
I agree with Michael in that Del Rio and Orton donโt like each other. Itโs a lot easier to buy into their dislike because Orton isnโt the happy-go-lucky babyface Sheamus is.ย Although, I canโt see Orton winning like Michael can.
I think itโs too early in their feud for the babyface to be getting a win.
Iโd like to see Del Rio reestablish himself after that feud with Sheamus by locking in the Cross Arm Breaker in the middle of the ring and getting a decisive submission win. The more likely scenario is that Del Rio gets the help of Ricardo, though.
Whatever happens, I think Del Rio needs this win. Itโll give him some credibility, and itโll give Orton something to really fight Del Rio over.
Winner: Alberto Del Rio

I swear weโve seen this match a thousand times over the last few years.
However, with the
three consecutive title matches against Sheamus, Iโm alright with Del Rio taking on Randy Orton
if it keeps him out of the title picture. Though, he is in dire need of a gimmick change. Maybe
some time off will freshen up his act.
Randy Orton will be World Heavyweight Champion again, but it wonโt be any time soon. Iโmย still surprised that he barely missed any time while filming his movie. Nevertheless, he wasย definitely needed back because the main event picture is very thin. Orton will go over here onย his slow return back to the top.
Winner: ย Randy Orton
