Randy Orton: 5 Awesome Matches And 5 That Sucked

From a Dead Man to a Hardcore Legend to an Unfortunate Big Red Monster....

It's hard to believe that Randy Orton has been in WWE for over 13 years and is only 35 years old. The Viper has been a pivotal part of WWE programming from almost day one and he might still have the better part of a decade left to have more great matches and create yet more memorable moments. Third generation star Orton debuted on WWE TV in 2002 as a white meat babyface but he didn't find his groove until he became a part of the Evolution stable in 2003, joining up with Triple H, Batista and Ric Flair. He would go on to win countless championships and the Royal Rumble, headline WrestleMania and have top class matches and great feuds on a regular basis. In his time in WWE, the Legend Killer has stolen the show with hardcore legends and brought out the best in the Dead Man but, on the other side of the coin, he's been forced to battle The Giant when people wanted Bryan and he's headlined WrestleMania in a match that didn't come close to delivering on fans expectations. When he's good he's great and when he's bad he sucks. Here are 5 Randy Orton matches that were awesome and helped him gain the reputation he has as such a great worker, alongside 5 matches that stunk up the joint and aren't fondly remembered. From The Viper to the Legend Killer to the leader of Legacy, we'll be covering everything here...
