I don't care if he's good in the ring, he's boring as hell.

i think he's a dull wrestler, dull gimmick.... they need to let him go and give someone better a chance to prove themselves.

Just wondering, what does a contract mean in WWE? Is it guarenteed money or like the NFL which is totally worthless.

A WWE contract means basically they own your rights and can release you anytime they want but you cannot just leave (unless you request and are granted a release). Then after you leave you cannot work for another wrestling company for 90 days. So its really not a NFL/MLB/NBA type contract as they all have clauses for both the team and players.

I remembered that Orton's already had 6 or 7 world title reigns and he's only 29. Triple H didn't have his first until he was about 30... Orton's already a mega star, and the next decade might aswell be his for the taking. How do I react? Why not? He deserves every minute of it, his (in my opinion..).. superb wrestling skills and mic skills, make him the best heel in the WWE at this moment. He enjoys making people hate him, I mean... he brought it on himself, he used to carry matches all by himself before, making them really really good matches (2007 etc..), then all of a sudden he decided to limit his moveset. This is a perfect decision for a heel like Orton, a bad one for a face like Cena. Orton mark I may be, but I'm not a kid who's misguided enough to stand in his way in order for him to get angry.
