Steve Austin offered a critical assessment of Randy Orton's character performance during an interview for the latest issue of Power Slam magazine.

When asked to name which wrestlers he believes can evolve into "money-drawing players" for WWE, Austin said of The Viper, "His promos need work, and right now, he's a little one-dimensional. The crowds are digging him, but there's still another step on the ladder for him to climb to."

Orton responded to Austin's remarks this evening on Twitter.

He wrote, "Austin is right, there is still room for me to move up the ladder. And I will. Watch me."
