A couple thoughts:
- Orton's injury is probably a good thing for him after losing to HHH again. He can come back as a fresh challenger.
- They will probably do some cheap cop out to the Taker angle, like have Vince come out on Smackdown and continue the "ratings" thing he has going, saying that Taker brings in ratings and Vickie has no power to fire him, firing Vickie like he did Regal.
