WWE: 7 Ways To Reinvent Randy Orton After WrestleMania 30

7. A Face Turn

This one seems like a bit of a reach, but as a veteran performer that's a top guy, it's definitely possible that Orton could go back to that babyface role. The reason is that WWE likes to use veteran babyfaces a way to elevate the heels. Look at Big Show and Mark Henry as current examples of that. The difference with Orton is that he was in the babyface role for about three years before he turned and in going back to his heel ways he's shown that he's clearly better as the bad guy. In terms of his promos, his babyface work wasn't that great. In fact, they didn't even let him talk that much because he doesn't really exude the kind of charisma you want to see in a babyface. When he's a heel, he's able to show off his cocky demeanor more and it clearly comes more natural to him. That doesn't mean that he's a natural jerk. It just seems like he is more comfortable in that role. It's very possible that Orton will be a face one day within the next couple of years. Most likely it won't be this year, but in WWE you never really now.
