>>5151474It was fine but I was/am an Orton mark and I always thought Orton deserved the shot over him. I understand Orton went on to have the belt way more but back then it felt like he was never going to get a chance again after they turned him into a babyface that held the belt for a month and then moved on. Triple H was easily Batista's best opponent in my opinion and their matches always felt like they had a realness to them, but I never expected anything special from Batista. Not to say Cena is a fucking workrate machine, but his matches always felt like a bigger deal and they felt like they delivered moreso than Batista.
