"where's everyone's anger and rage at Stone cold for beating up his wife?"
It was there. You know. FOUR YEARS AGO. No one condoned it and many were quite pissed. But Austin hasn't been shoved down our throats regularly, over-hyped, and put over much better wrestlers every show, either.

Taker carried Orton at Mania. SummerSlam was ok, I just saw it, and besides the TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE, NONSENSICAL ending, it was good.
He worked one singles match with Foley. It was a garbage match with some good spots. Anyone in Orton's shape with that build-up could've done it, IMO.
Angle carried Orton to an OK match at ONS. Angle pretty much decimated him before that in some OK matches. Angle was the focus and really dominated the Mania match. Didn't see Vengeance.

"Orton's 100 times more entertaining that Cena."
Cena's promos may suck, but they have a POINT and he doesn't trip over his words and mention his "destiny" (despite jobbing for MONTHS), like Orton does.
His matches have been better in 2006.
