I think Cesaro's in a nice place for it, I know how come people feel in regards to the IC title's relevance (understandable due to recent years) but it is still the most prestige title in the company now after the main title, which now it's unified is growing back to what it once was, that step up title before the main title picture, which I think Cesaro is incredibly capable of, him having the IC title would not only bring back this relevance a little more, it would certify Cesaro's way to the top a bit more, which is what he needs and would be great for, it pretty much works favourable for both Cesaro and the IC title itself.
Yah, I do agree that it still has some prestiege, I do think this could end up just leading to the same Miz/Kofi Kingston feuds he had with the US title. As long as we see him mix it up and feud with upper tier opponents, I think it could be good though, I'm curious to see how it plays out.
Part of me wouldn't be surprised if they just keep Sheamus in that Sin Cara type of role, where he just squashes mid carders and from time to time feuds with upper mid carders and beats them, but he's kept away from any big storyline and the titles. From what I've heard he's actually in the top 5 for merch sellers (or possibly top 10)... I think it boils down to, his character is stale, but I don't think anything big would come from a heel turn, the biggest thing would be him getting fed to Cena or Daniel Bryan. It's a weird situation with Sheamus lol... the guy IMO is actually really good in the ring, but it just seems like people are indifferent to him.
I completely agree with this. I'm not sure what Sheamus' thing is meant to be at the minute other than being a stereotypical Irish guy that says "fella" all the time. I don't know what they could repackage him as but i think he certainly needs something. I just can't take an enormous pale, ginger that looks like he can't go outside with a baseball cap and sunglasses seriously.
Right now he wouldn't, his character is completely bland at the moment with little interest on a whole, I like Sheamus but he seems stuck in a rut at the moment.
Yeah, he could just have a complete new look and gimmick and come back with aggression, I have no doubts Sheamus could pull this off, he works well in the ring and he can bring that aggression, just right now he just seems 'there' so to speak, even when he came back from his time off apart from the initial pop, it doesn't seem to have made any difference, it's as though he was never gone really which isn't a good sign really as he there was no excitement or character investment on his return.
Yeah, i know exactly where you're coming from. He came back, looked fairly strong in the Rumble, making the final 4, then was kind of just one of the "other guys" in the EC. Since then he's kinda just been on TV not really doing anything. Like he's just there for the sake of being there. I think some sort of aggressive heel type gimmick would really help him out...maybe a spray tan wouldn't hurt either. But i have no issue with his ring work. Just he is completely stale. I don't think the whole Christian feud helped. But maybe something like the sadistic aggressor that Austin had during the Power Trip type thing. He has the tools, he just needs something other than the tedious stereotyped gimmick that he has now.
Aah no manIt feels like this thread exists just to hurt my feelingsThough I suppose if anyone should take the strap off Big E it should be Cesaro at least he's credible and not a smiling ginger douche or an old pothead
, Big E just needs that major involvement in something I think, he could be a big player like the way Diesel was in the WWE that they could involve him in more things along these lines.
I understand what you're saying (and I appreciate your kind words there), but I just feel as though I'd like to see Barrett get this personally (I feel he deserves it, I'm loving his new gimmick, I think he's been solid in the ring in the past and he recently put on one hell of a match with Ziggler, alongside how it was an unfortunate injury that stopped him obtaining the MITB briefcase which Ziggler replaced (Though a great choice!!!) ... however I'm not sure if Barrett would bring as much to the IC belt (at the moment) as much as Cesaro would with his strong booking and impressive work lately he's given, I think he is probably the strongest mid carder that could solidify the IC title a little more, does that make sense?
