YOU WILL RESPECT MY AUTHORITAH!!!!
It's no secret that a lot of people have wanted Orton to turn heel for quite a while. Orton himself has, reportedly, been wanting it to happen for quite a spell also. I have a feeling that it's going to happen fairly soon at some point over the course of the summer.
My reason for thinking this came about as a result of last night's announcement that Randy Orton will take on Dean Ambrose on SmackDown!. It seems as though that Orton isn't done with The Shield, which leads me to believe that Orton & Sheamus will ultimately go after the tag titles held by Seth Rollins & Roman Reigns. I think that Rollins & Reigns will either interfere to prevent Orton from winning, resulting in a DQ, they'll provide some sort of distraction to allow Ambrose to pick up the win or Ambrose will come away with a clean win. At the end of either of those outcomes, I expect The Shield to beat Orton down, only for Sheamus to come to the rescue, thus starting them down the road to a tag team feud.
As usually is the case when it comes to big singles stars who've formed a tag team, the ego of one or both will get in the way of their getting the upper hand against The Shield. Frustrations over the inability to get the job done against Rollins & Reigns will begin to mount, other issues might compound & add onto the frustrations & clashing egos and, eventually, Orton simply snaps by turning on Sheamus during a point in which it looks like they've got The Shield right where they want them. WWE could also go the route of simply having Orton snap & turn without a lot of build up in the hopes of taking most fans by surprise. If Team Hell No doesn't get another rematch against The Shield, then Orton & Sheamus might be the ones to take them on at Payback.
Maybe I'm simply reading into something that's not really there or maybe I'm just projecting something I'd like to see happen. I dunno, I just have a feeling that Orton will turn heel pretty soon, or at least in time for SummerSlam so that he & Sheamus can have a match.
