First off, wow, there are so many marks in this thread.. it's quite unbelievable. I'm not going to go quote every single moron that has posted in the thread, instead i'll just address certain things and put you idiots in your place.
It's insanely funny that the Orton haters thought they had something on the guy with this interview video that turned out to be just a shoot, just reading your comments it's obvious how excited you people were to think that Orton fucked up. Well, reality took it's hand and smacked your pathetic faces, now didn't it?
This thing starts out as "Orton is an asshole, heres the proof that he hasn't changed", then turns into "well fine, I was wrong, but he's still an asshole. Once an asshole always an asshole"... cuz yea, people never change right? But now, oh my gosh, poor Kennedy got fired because of Orton. Yes, Orton has that much pull that a few comments he made got the dude fired. Y'know what? If someone you were in the ring with, was constantly injured and fucked up a move that could have injured YOU, then I think YOU would do the same and address that situation. You have to figure, Kennedy was going to be put in a storyline with Orton, they were going to feud eventually as it seemed like that was being what was built up from Kennedy's short lived return. So, knowing this, Orton probably was concerned with having to fight the guy during the feud as he ALREADY made a mistake on HIS FIRST NIGHT BACK. I'll say it again, his FIRST NIGHT BACK!
If someone is endangering your career, by being sloppy in the ring, then you would voice those concerns as well. Especially if he almost reinjured your shoulder that would have put you out of action for quite some time. Is it just a coincidence that Kennedy keeps getting hurt? Maybe. But i'd say thats quite improbable, no i'd say the reason would be that he's just sloppy inside the ring. He doesn't take spots well, doesn't know how to wrestling very well, and puts people in harms way when they are in the ring with him.
Now, lets talk about Orton's "attitude". Sure, i'll admit he does have a jerkish attitude, but it has improved vastly from what it once was. I mean, what kind of immature asshole things did YOU do at the young age of 24? If you were thrust into fame and fortune like that, at that young age, what would YOU do? You can't judge a man that you don't know, all you hear is the things he's done or see him on tv in character. So, keep your judgements to yourself, because Orton isn't the first asshole in the WWE nor will he be the last.
You people, especially Wes, are pathetic moronic Kennedy marks. You hold a grudge against this man because you think he got your little wrestler-crush fired. Well, fuck off, because you don't know the story in it's entirety. Only Vince does, he has his reasons for firing him. But as I said before, don't blame a guy for voicing concern over a sloppy opponent, this is their life afterall.
