Randy Orton vs Del Rio – One Step Up
I really just wanted to add this section to put over the match between Orton and Del Rio from Monday. It was excellent and PPV quality. Their feud is still lingering, but the meat of it is over, which is why I think we got that match on free TV.
ADR's stock might not be what it was a year ago, but he is still a valuable talent. Even losing as much as he is, he remains relevant and is one of WWE's best put-over guys. I still wish he would have done more as a main event title contender, but I'm glad he's still finding success in other areas.
Randy Orton may want to be a heel, but the majority of fans respect him too much at this point of his career to make that an easy decision. It will likely still happen eventually, but might not be anytime soon. In either case, Orton still has a lot to offer at the top of the card and it's nice to see him leading toward that.
