#4 Randy Orton
Trending
Randy Orton was destined for greatness, and the platitudes that John ‘Bradshaw’ Layfield frequently throws his way aren’t undeserved. The Viper truly is what you would get if you built a sports entertainer from the ground up, a man who understands his character and puts on better matches than people like to give him credit for.
Orton is a future Hall of Famer, regardless of what happens for the rest of the career. But until he joined forces on-screen with Triple H, Orton was nothing more than a generic enhancement level create-a-wrestler, even to the point where he used the Overdriver (or as he called it, the O-Zone) as a finishing move.
Orton was someone who had the tools but was almost entirely lacking in momentum, purpose or credibility. These intangibles came to his only after he joined Evolution. Orton joined Evolution and his road to becoming a major star began. The number one guy in Evolution? Triple H.
