Yes, but he also has a generation plus before him he's never wrestled. And as a pure WWE guy, he's got a lot of unique matches with guys who are currently making their name elsewhere or who have had their primes in other companies. I've come around a lot on Orton, especially recently as he's seemingly matured a ton and is enjoying his time in wrestling. And I also say that as someone who has enjoyed some of his heel work in the past. But there's some great potential matches for him in something like this. Orton/Sting. Orton/Steamboat. I even think something like Orton/Omega could work in the right situation.

Good points all - and to be clear, Mayhem's early roster is exactly perfect for that, so he made a great pick. (Sting, Adam Page, Bron, and Penta). It's more that by the time I get around to considering Orton, I've picked a lot from his eras in his company.


Edited to add short overnight stats:

1) Christian Cage officially hits the all-time low we've been waiting on - from 93 in Pun's 17 to 104 this year. (Randy Orton narrowly avoids tying his all-time low from the very first draft in 2008 - 118 there).

2) Wendi Richter hits an all time high of 109 - I bet I'm behind on some early drafts, but the prior high I have down is 358 in Pun's 18 (she had a higher 315 in WarGames).

3) There is one more guaranteed low on the board. Six more guys with lows between now and 150 though, so I suspect it won't be the last.

Helluva good pick. I was going to take Paige with my last pick but remembered/realized she already had history with Becky. Still one of my favorites.

Knew I was blanking on someone but had no idea who. It was Paige.

132. Trish Stratus

[Chris Eco]

It was a close call between Trish and Asuka.

This is going to be a bizarre comparison, but I think Trish is the Hogan of modern women's wrestling - took a very simple style and just dragged the audience into caring with top-shelf crowd and promo work. WWE treated the division comically poorly in the gap between her and NXT, but I'm also not sure any woman in that gap in WWE (even wrestlers who are personal favorites) carried a mic like she did.
