The Sheamus problem
- Thread starter R=G
- Start date
Nah, man. I think the fans would cheer Lesnar over him easily.
Kids like him but when he's around a legit face in a real spot, fans go against him big time. This has been going on since WM 28.
Sheamus has been in a lot of stellar matches. Against Morrison, pulled a great feud out with Big Show, good one with Henry, had a really REALLY good under the radar match against Tensai, and more. But he's fukking stale. He's a guy that can go out there mechanically and never actually have a "bad" match, but look like he's having one because no one gives a flying fukk anymore.
The guy was stale BEFORE his injury. A turn was said to be in the cards for Mania against DB before Punk left and blessed us by forcing the WWE to react. He needs something new like...yesterday. I got over Cena not turning a long time ago. Its understood. But Sheamus? It frustrates me to no end. I like the guy, but enough is enough. But as was said before, WWE can't book down the past the main event anymore.

Problem with turning him heel is, then what? Who does he feud with and what makes him stand out from the rest of the heels?
All the heels nowadays are just content with getting a reaction in general. I don't know if thats management making them say that in interviews or how they really feel but its nonsense. All the heels just kinda come off the same..mean mug and insult crowd and have matches against babyfaces. Its the bare minimum of booking and damn near everyone including babyfaces are being booked as such.

I feel you, man. Very few play the role well. Rollins is entertaining me with Ambrose, Rusev's 2 dimensional USA chant baiting schtick is good for the dusty old, tried and true gimmick it is...and after that....how far down is the best heel? fukking Tyson Kidd on NXT? I could've said Bray if I could excuse the naming of the city and the fact that people instantly pop and throw their cell phones up for him. I dunno, man. I know we have an era where the bad guy is cool, but you can still script strong villains who don't pander. Sheamus as a heel would probably just end up teaming with Cesaro and fighting Ziggler or whatever random stop and started face has either interchangeable, meaningless midcard belt.

Cripple H proved he was overrated in 2002..made it painful to put up with in 2003. And the only reason he seems valuable in any form today is because he's spinning off of a loved cat like Bryan..that's where his heel run this time generated from..because fans were sick of him by the Sheamus WM match. He was getting carted out to Goodbye chants like a jabroni
Rollins is a legit heel..he's on fire and carrying the show
Henry is gonna get cheered more often than not no matter what...
Big Show? Nah..it makes sense for him not to lose and be heel most of the time but that's it.
Jericho overall has been a good heel throughout the years but struggled during the Punk run in 2012 before Mania and the follow up
Harper is already getting cheered over his ring ability
^^ This, you fukk. All wound up for nothing. You wasted time and passion with that shyt.

Why turn him when booking is trash. Creative needs to step the fukk up, period. Sheamus & Cesaro put on a classic at NOC and they respond by keeping them apart
it wasn't a classic, but it was a higher quality a-typical raw style ending meets wwe lets them have a bit more leeway ppv match.
on a pisspoor bait and switch card, for a ppv.
so, it stood out above all the other waste of time bookings on that show.
