i wouldn't necessarily have a problem with their relationship with orton if they were stronger, but they do a wishy-washy tweener thing in general. mostly they've been heels (and i was a big fan of HHH's character initially) but sometimes they do weird cheap pop stuff that kinda sorta works. it's really puzzling. they seem to be making it up as they go along. obviously they've been doing the same for the storylines, but for characters it's super annoying. pick something and stick with it.

my guess is bryan will be the only one who beats orton in the gauntlet though. i can't imagine team letting orton lose to christian, cesaro or sheamus. maybe cena, but that wouldn't affect much since he's already beat him twice.
