Randy Orton is the "face of the WWE." He's also someone that since dropping the World Heavyweight Championship at Wrestlemania has been floundering as a character. Maybe its time for the "face of the WWE" to lose to an up and coming "New Reality" era star ready for the spotlight like, say, Dean Ambrose. Of the three Shield members, Ambrose has the least going for him at-present from a creative standpoint. Ambrose as the thorn in Orton's side that he can't quite remove could make for exciting television. Of course, once Ambrose defeats Orton, the "New Reality" can claim a superstar being made which certainly would speak volumes for it as a company-wide movement.
