Randy Orton Vs. John Cena: A Double Turn?

Another thing some wrestling fans are bringing up as it relates to the feud between Randy Orton and John Cena is the possibility of a double turn. Randy Orton will turn face and John Cena will finally turn heel. Cena will align with The Authority, while Orton will start feuding against them.

The honeymoon between Randy Orton and The Authority didn't exactly last long. Triple H helped Orton win the title from Daniel Bryan at Summerslam. A few weeks after that, they already started teasing tension. There have been times when they would turn back around and make it look like everyone was on the same page. That never seemed to last long. They once again teased the tension on Raw this week. That is a storyline reason right there for Randy Orton to eventually have enough and turn against Triple H and Stephanie. I would hope this inconsistency would lead to some good swerve or development.

But how likely is it that John Cena would turn heel? That is probably the main issue. Personally, I think his feud with The Rock was the best time to turn him heel. There is still a good chance that the WWE might pull it here. It should cause a lot of drama. If they do turn Orton face, that would just leave The Authority without their own guy to be the "face" of the company. Kane doesn't fit. It would create a strong possibility for Cena to turn heel. And are they already planting the seeds for Cena to join the group? Cena has not exactly entered this feud on the platform of ridding the WWE from The Authority's tyranny. It is about the titles. If a heel turn does come, it wouldn't come out of nowhere.

Do I want to see this double turn? It would be a change as far as Cena goes. Orton was a face just a few months ago. Does he need to switch back so fast? This heel run has not been too great. Instead of building him up to be a top heel, they do more to tease tension. It makes him look bad at times. Orton was his best as a heel when he was in Evolution. I liked his character best then. His time leading Rhodes & DiBiase could have been better. This current heel run could have been a great opportunity to make him great again. I would rather see him be a true top heel now, but if that does not work, turning him face isn't a bad idea. And that should pave the way for another top heel to take his place. Cena? Don't tell me CM Punk is going to side with the status quo!
