Top 50 Greatest Wrestling Heels of all time
13. Randy Orton
Randy Orton has been the most hated man in pro wrestling during the Ruthless Aggression Era and PG Era.
Orton has been 14 time world champion and he called himself ‘The Legend Killer’ during his time with Evolution.
Orton formed a faction named ‘Legacy’ with Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase having his back at every turn, he started the year off by punting Mr. McMahon, the Chairman of the company, straight in the skull. From there, he made it his mission to put every member of the McMahon family in a hospital bed, and over the course of the next few months, he was successful at doing just that.
As WWE champion, he dominated the Raw scene for the better part of 2009 and similar to Seth Rollins, he had The Legacy as his insurance policy. Fans wanted to see his rivals get a hold of him and give him his comeuppance, showing his strengths at being a bad guy.
He was so fantastic at playing the heel role that it ultimately turned him into a fan favorite by the spring of 2010. Although The Apex Predator is currently endearing himself to the audience, don’t be surprised to see him return to his villainous roots down the line.
