There is talk backstage (only talk, nothing confirmed), that Randy Orton and those close to him are becoming fearful that he may be made an example of due to the SI story from last week. In other words, he may be fired.
Orton had the hardest story to try and explain what with him having six different kinds of bodybuilding drugs, although he did nothing illegal per say because he had prescriptions for them.
Considering that there were worse stories going around about Orton last year at this time, nothing may come out of this at all, but it is a fact that this is beginning to once again make the rounds.
The worst i see happening to him is a fine and a suspension. Do you really think Vince would make Orton a free agent with TNA chasing wwe? They wont let the guy they have been building up a fair bit for the last few years go then appear in the rival promotion a few weeks later.
Well it's a tricky situation.......on one hand, he's a great young talent, who has the potential to be the next big heel for years to come, the next "HHH" even, but they cannot let him off with breaking their new "laws" and expect all the other talent to respect it themselves.
On the other, if they let him go they would let everyone know and realize they aren't always safe and able to get away with everything even if they are pushed to the top. Vince, and everyone else can bring him down quicker than Yokozuna's ass on a toilet after eating sixteen McDonald's double cheese burgers, but yeah, TNA would grab him right away.
Before, maybe last year this time, I would fear him going to TNA and the company to actually give WWE a run for it's money, BUUUUT now? I dunno'....with what they have, they should be much better.
Orton won't be let go because of the fear of what he would be able to bring to the table with TNA. If Vince will go out of his way to not allow Monty Brown to do what made him famous in TNA like he has and basically waste his talent to not give TNA any kind of notification... they won't let one of their top names go.
