I'm doing this topic just to see where everyone is when it comes to this feud. Simple question. Are you still interested in the feud between Christian and Randy Orton?
Personally, I am. Well barely. I'm slowly starting to bridge over the "end this damn feud" line, but I'm starting to get very annoyed at Randy Orton dominating Christian throughout the feud. I understand he is the golden boy, but does he always have to come out on top? it is very hard to for me to get behind a guy that is ALWAYS coming out on top. Christian has gotten barely anything out of this feud. He lost to him three times. Yes, he lost in a controversial way on the third time, but that was also the same time Orton had a concussion. The feud feels WAY too one sided and it is making it very uninteresting.
On top of that, this feud seems ass backwards. They're trying to have Christian overcome the obstacle that is Randy Orton, but he is the heel? Shouldn't it be the other way around? I mean, if you're going to book it like this, then you might as well have kept Christian a Face and turned Randy Orton heel. He is the underdog in this feud and, under any circumstance, fans usually feel the need to get behind the underdog more. In a typical feud, the HEEL is supposed to put over the babyface. I wouldn't be so upset about this if Christian was made to look a lot stronger and Orton wasn't dominating most of the feud. At this point, this is turning out to be exactly how the feud between him and CM Punk went. All Orton, barely no CM Punk.
If Orton wins at MITB, they might as well end the feud there. Christian could win the title at Summerslam and it wouldn't matter. Yeah, he would have the title, but he got it after losing four times in a row to Orton. They can always turn it around by having Christian beat Orton and then beat him again at Summerslam, I suppose.
Idk. Maybe I am overreacting. However, I am a huge fan of Christian and I really do not like the fact that he is look pretty damn weak right now. What are your thoughts?
