Randy Orton has been very vocal about turning heel and it appears that WWE will try and make him happy by turning him heel as soon as possible. Orton is currently filming 12 Rounds: Reloaded. When that is complete and WWE officials feel that Sheamus is strong enough to carry the SmackDown shows as the top babyface, they will do the Orton turn.
Orton once again made it known that he prefers being a heel over his current babyface persona. When asked on Twitter Sunday about his favorite gimmick or storyline of his career, he stated, “Where I’m a HEEL.”
We reported last month that Orton is desperate to turn heel.
