#3 Randy Orton attacks Tye Dillinger
Well, this week featured Tye Dillinger clashing with Shinsuke Nakamura in what seemed to be a random match at first. However, The Viper Randy Orton came out of nowhere to attack Dillinger, much to the crowd's amusement. Where this potential feud goes is anybody's guess.
The Legend Killer last feuded with the Charismatic Enigma, Jeff Hardy, and is currently one of the best heels of WWE. I mean who could forget his epic encounter with Jeff at Hell in Cell?
On the other side, Tye Dillinger was a top babyface on the NXT roster and was crazy over among fans. His in-ring work has been nothing short of phenomenal. However, as of late, he seems to be lost in the shuffle.
Thus, WWE did a great job to have him feud with Orton. Given The Viper's experience and stature, he could bring the best out of Dillinger. And, this feud may prove to be the breakthrough for Dillinger. Also, it would be interesting to see how WWE creatives plan their feud.
