20 Most Popular Wrestlers Of 2014 (According To Google Metrics)
13. Randy Orton, -12.0% Decrease From 2013
Randy Orton's decrease of 12% might be a worry to the star and the WWE. The thing is, Orton has actually been far more featured in the first eight months of 2014 than he was in 2013. He had four months at the start of the year as WWE Champion. Even after losing the belt in the main event of WrestleMania, he still remained a heavily featured headliner in matches with Roman Reigns and The Shield. It's ironic then that searches for him have actually dropped. It looks like a case of familiarity breeds contempt. Newer stars like Reigns got pushed on TV and their google rank went up, but with an older star like Orton, his push has only subdued searches. The message to WWE is that we've seen enough and got bored of Orton.
