I was merely speaking in terms of elevating new stars. No single performer is going to walk out of a program as the new Hulk Hogan, no matter how hard they are put over. Speaking of which, saying that the Ultimate Warrior is a failure because he didn't draw as well as his predecesor is not only unfair, but it is also a lazy, tired argument. Doesn't that mean that pretty much every other World Champion is a failure as well?
And the Foley-Orton feud was a big step in elevating Orton. I guess that we could discuss the burials that he underwent at the hands of HHH and The Undertaker, but that really doesn't have a thing to do with the aforementioned Foley program, which was easily the best thing that happened on the RAW brand in '04 (which isn't saying much).
