| 2009 Cody Rhodes |
Riley Orton never wanted her name to mean anything, but the Orton name makes sure people decide who she is before she ever opens her mouth.
Reluctantly pulled into WWE as part of Legacy alongside Randy Orton, Ted DiBiase Jr., and Cody Rhodes, she steps into a world she never intended to be part of, under the watchful control of a brother who trusts no one near her.
Ted's persistent, borderline clueless confidence mixed with being paired up on screen has him convinced there's something between them that really only exists in his head.
And Cody's calmness unsettles her in a way she doesn't fully understand...
On-screen and off-screen, all anyone sees her as is Randy's little primadonna sister with a sharp tongue and even sharper attitude, but underneath it all is a girl scared to let anyone ever see the real her, scared to let anyone see through her act... until the one person who starts to see through it is the one she never expected to let close.
