    Randy Orton VS Sheamus….

    I hope Randy shows him a real fight unlike John Cena did.

    Age of Orton will rise at the royal rumble again..

    Wait, wasn’t there a story a few months ago about Vince practically stroking out when the match between Legacy and Jerishow wasn’t getting any reaction whatsoever from the crowd because it was heel vs heel? It’s good to see he hasn’t learned. I mean, I’d rather see Sheamus wrestle someone I know won’t win but could at least put on a solid match that would get the crowd going, as opposed to that match where the crowd will turn Orton face by default because they actually care about him.

    Dear god………..PLEASE let Orton WIN at the Rumble! We need a REAL World Champion in the run-up to Mania, not an over-pushed mid-card act.

    Fans will cheer Orton at the Rumble….and Vince may have to consider turning DiBiase HEEL, not face…fans cheer and and respect Orton too much to boo him in this situation.

    Sheamus is a real wrestler… And Randy is a better real wrestler… Yeah, people gonna cheer for Orton… I hope this fight can be a good fight, with wrestling, with Sheamus looking like what he is: a wrestler. Cause with Cena, he looks like an idiot, like anyone else who is vs Cena in a match…

    Thank you, WWE, for putting Orton and not Cena in the match…

    Unlike most of you I actually hope orton loses not because I want sheamus as champ but because I don’t want to see the same matches AGAIN!

    this is smart
    WWE is realizing that there will be a lot of people
    who would be upset if Cena won the title back, so
    they decided to let Randy do the dirty work and take care
    of Sheamus. GOOD!!
    Orton to win the title back!!
