Sass 0 Report post Posted December 29, 2005 No, I'm just asking. When's the last time Chris Benoit ever acted like an asshole to someone? I don't think I've ever heard anything about him trying to attack fans at house shows. Randy Orton on the otherhand is still just a little boy. He's growing up fast though.

When was the last time Chris Benoit tried to veto someone's title shot? He forced Muhammed Hassan to pay bar tab for every wrestler that was at the bar when he didn't take any advice from Sgt. Slaughter earlier this year. I don't hate Benoit, but that was still unprofessional on his part. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Exslade ZX 0 Report post Posted December 29, 2005 How can anyone side with Orton. Believe it or not, the best way to respond to an insult ISN'T calling the guy a cunt and trying to fight him. Isn't Orton 26 years old? Real mature - definitely better than just letting the insult roll of his back. Fuck that. Especially if it's something personal. Let's say, your mom was murdered, and you get a job in which you are a "celebrity". If before a show some guy is constantly jabbing at you about your dead mother, and how she was killed, are you really gonna let it 'roll of your back'? Whether it's professional or not. More then likely you're gonna be pissed. And yes, I realize they are two different situations..but fact remains a personal matter is a personal matter, who knows how hard Orton takes the AWOL thing. No, I'm just asking. When's the last time Chris Benoit ever acted like an asshole to someone? I don't think I've ever heard anything about him trying to attack fans at house shows. Randy Orton on the otherhand is still just a little boy. He's growing up fast though. But everyone loves Chris Benoit. He has no reason to act like an asshole to someone, since there are far less people acting like an asshole toward him in comparison to people like Orton...or other hated wrestlers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sass 0 Report post Posted December 29, 2005 Orton fucked up though. He broke kayfabe. Dick Murdoch would have done the right thing. Find the guy after a show and try to kick the shit out of him then. Orton needs to know when to pick his spots. The heel can never break from character. Orton failed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cameron chaos 0 Report post Posted December 29, 2005 Orton has driven two women out of the WWE, staged a fight with Stasiak for the Hell of it and now after all the WWE's efforts to "support the troops" he's going around saying "fuck the military" and using staff security as an aide for him to start fights with so he get away scott free.

If somebody told Orton "Hahaha your mom is dead" I would take his side. Drawing a comparison between those two insults is insane. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What more do you want from the man? That said, the security guard, on the other hand, was way out of line. Trying to make the situation ten times worse is pretty unprofessional.

buffybeast 0 Report post Posted December 29, 2005 Orton could be found covered in blood with a dead hooker in the other room and if the WWE was pushing him there wouldn't be any effect to his career. Meanwhile, if someone they aren't concerned about pushing steps on an ant, they'd find cause for dismissal. Vince would work the incident into a storyline where we'd find out HHH kicked Orton's ass after he found Orton screwing the dead hooker, who was Katy Vick's sister.

haVoc 0 Report post Posted December 29, 2005 Orton has driven two women out of the WWE... When did this happened? What is the story here? The one was with Bradshaw's stable for a short while. She had dark hair and the name "Joy" is ringing in my head, but I don't think that is right. She actually wasn't that bad and was one of the better women they keep around from that Diva search. They were on a plane and Orton walked by and purposely dumped his drink all over her. "Oops! I dumped my drink on her tits" type deal. Lame Anyway, she quit and WWE was lucky she didn't sue. Can't remember the other. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was Amy Weber who was in JBL's Cabinet. The other diva didn't compete in the Diva Search in 2004, but she was a generic model that WWE hired. There was a story a while back about Randy Orton saying "Screw Canada!" to her and shitting in her gymbag, but she said in an interview that Orton actually spilled lotion all over her gymbag (I think) and then quit WWE because of it. Her name was Rochelle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And how that is a negative thing is beyond me; he worked the marks that were eating chinese food that night. It's stupid and irresponsible. Both were recognisable figures on national TV who, just for kicks, pretend to have a fight for the sake of a few marks. If the owner of the place had called the cops, registered a public disturbance and the two had got picked up it could have been a much more unpleasant situation. They pretend to fight in their careers, you'd think they'd be able to restrain themselves in public. I doubt if two guys in any other line of work who publicly embarass their company by pretending to fight each other in front of prospective customers would have kept their jobs or stayed in managment's good books. The place to work marks is in an arena where people have paid up to participate, not a restaurant where some guys are eating noodles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Quik Report post Posted December 30, 2005 Yeah, fuck the military! Bring back Randy (Undertaker sent him to hell or something, right? Or did he bury him alive? I dunno, I don't watch Smackdown) and pair him up with Davairi, reveal him as one of the terrorists who attacked Taker, restart that feud, and then let the Undertaker kill him off. Then he can go to TNA and be used correctly... or Japan. Randy Orton would be AMAZING in Japan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
