The Sacramento Bee ranked Smackdown as the 7th worst TV show on 2007. They wrote, “Doesn’t matter that it’s fake, let’s look at the messages: use steroids, cheat, taunt, get revenge and violence solves everything. Then there’s the massive misogynist steak. This isn’t a TV show, its a civil rights violation.”
Believe it or not, Randy Orton has the rep backstage of being someone that doesn’t take crap from Triple H and Shawn Michaels. Apparently Orton has that attitude HBK used to have in that he think he’s untouchable.
