When you think about Randy Orton, you don't necessarily think of factions that he's been part of because of the long and illustrious career that he's enjoyed. But then again, he's been a part of some of the best heel units that WWE has ever put together, in my opinion.

I mean the first name that comes to mind is Evolution, with Ric Flair, Triple H and indeed Batista, a faction that is guaranteed to go into the WWE Hall of Fame someday very soon. But then there was also The Legacy, a team that some of you may remember with much fondness and derision based on what you thought of it.

And then there was also The Wyatt Family, a group that Orton was a part of for a brief period, leading to his eventual match with the eater of worlds, Bray Wyatt at WrestleMania. Who can forget his alliance with The Authority, something that dominated WWE programming in the company's modern era?

Is it any surprise that Randy Orton has been cast in a new group, this time as the leader of the faction at long last?
