So I was watching a little RAW last night and found out the thing that has been missing for a while an dragged down the show, factions. Professional wrestling works best with factions in my opinion because you have groups that can be relied on to come down and make matches interesting and make real story lines. Plus it allows WWE to get more people involved in one storyline instead of creating multiple stories that inevitably get talent lost on the back burner.
Randy Orton forming a faction with other second generation stars like Manu, Cody Rhodes, Sim Snuka, and Ted Dibiase, Jr. is a great hook. Many of these guys are second tier stars (and judging by Manu's in ring performance last night I see why he isn't wrestling much but has just been around as hired muscle) but together as Legacy (they repeated the name about 12 times during the final match last night which tells me this is the official faction name) they can all be something. Evolution made Batista and Orton into the stars they are today. D-X made Triple H. Factions work and its good to see the WWE bringing them back. Now they just need to teach John Cena how to sell a good beating in the ring and they'll be all set.
