Guess who won't be the "Franchise Player" of anything for a while? Randy Orton has been suspended again for doing drugs. He is running out of strikes, much like Rey Mysterio. Considering that Orton's feud with Jericho was already screwed up, Orton didn't really have anything too major to be a part of. What did he have to look forward to? Miz? Ziggler? Nothing that would really draw any major interest. And there is really not too much need to worry about who will fill in for him. Sheamus is still around. CM Punk can show up on Smackdown more. Christian returned. John Cena, needless to say, will never leave. Sin Cara just came back. That is a guy I can definitely see them using well now. It is a shame that this happened to Orton, but I don't feel things will be hurt too much for the WWE right now.
Worst-case scenario, Orton strikes out again or wants to leave to a place that will allow him to take whatever substances he wants. What happens? He ends up on the same show as Jeff Hardy? He goes to TNA? That would be a huge gain for TNA, but they don't know how to take proper advantage of anyone to improve their product, so they would probably screw up with him too.
