If someone thinks Sheamus is being booked well as a champion...
 
Please explain to me how? He's won exactly two matches (a fluke and a dq) against main eventers. Every win he's had is against jobbers or midcarders. I do not see him as a threat to anyone above the midcard, yet he's holding the fucking title.

Londoner 02-03-2010 06:03 PM

I can't take him seirously either.

Gertner 02-03-2010 06:04 PM

He's doing better than I expected him to, I'll give him that.

I don't hold this against Sheamus himself. I think he's a great talent and could be main event material if he was built up well. But what he has going right now is just pathetic.

Juan 02-03-2010 06:09 PM

I don't mind him at all tbh. After 2 years of Cena as champion, another year of Cena, Orton and HHH trading the belt, this is a breathe of fresh air.

As we saw with Randy Orton, heels just aren't booked as dominant anymore. Which is a shame, but that's just the way it is now.

Savio 02-03-2010 06:11 PM

I never even see sheamus on raw really

GD 02-03-2010 06:12 PM

Reminds me of Rey Mysterio's World title reign.

Rey Mysterio jobbed numerous times as champion. Sheamus hasn't, he just hasn't been booked to win any clean matches. Very different.

Londoner 02-03-2010 06:13 PM

And Rey was on the show alot more than Sheamus has been.

Good point there Senior Juan :kiss:

The Franchise 02-03-2010 06:17 PM

He hasn't had the best booking but it's probably not priority #1 right now with the Bret/Vince, Cena/Batista and Taker/HBK/HHH storylines. WWE seems to focus on the really important stuff and doesn't care too much about the rest of the show (which IMO is a major reason for the decline is quality their product has seen in the last few years).

I'd rather see Sheamus as champ if only for the fact he isn't named Randy, John or Hunter.

ron the dial 02-03-2010 06:17 PM

it's good to see them not considering their main title as "really important stuff"

He has the title. He's the #1 priority.

Give the Fucking title to Orton!

Clearly not, but I think that will change once the Sheamus/HHH program for Mania starts

Xero 02-03-2010 06:19 PM

Kayfabe-wise, he's #1 priority. There's no way around that, no matter how badly the title has been booked.

ron the dial 02-03-2010 06:20 PM

if the guy with the title isn't the #1 priority, then what does the title "really" mean?

The Franchise 02-03-2010 06:20 PM

Yup, it's bad but it wouldnt be the first time they have done this (Battle of the Billionaires hurt the Cena/HBK feud IMO and Vince/HBK hurt Cena/HHH the year before... although that feud wasn't really even a feud. It was just a name calling)

Juan 02-03-2010 06:20 PM

In my personal opinion, a 2 year long John Cena title reign is about as bad as it gets.

He should be I'm just saying that to the WWE Bret/Vince is the #1 priority

The title has changed hands about 20 times over the past 3 years, so not much unfortunately.

There is no fucking way I want to see Triple-H main event and by main event I mean to be last on the card at Wrestlemania.

Yeah isnt that nuts. Especially since in 2003-2007 we had lots of 6 month+ reigns.

WWE needs to learn balance

I don't think he will be??? Edge should be the last match since he won the Rumble. Now this doesn't guarantee the last spot on the card since 2006 (the 06, 07 and 08 Rumble winners did not main event) but I'm pretty sure Edge/Jericho or whatever they've got planned for him will main event over Sheamus/HHH.

I'm just saying, there's a good chance HHH and Sheamus will main event at Mania, so if you don't want to see Hunter in the main event, then don't watch it.

Juan 02-03-2010 06:28 PM

Also, I think the word you're looking for is Seņor. Senior means old

Not gonna happen.

I bet you 20,000 tipsters points it wont.

Well, I did say there's a CHANCE. Didn't say it WILL happen. It's been rumored, so there at least a possibility. Plus, Sheamus is advertised as Champion at post-Elimination Chamber house shows, so that's a clue that he wont be losing the title at EC.

Can't see him winning the chamber though, that just wouldn't feel right.

I have a gut feeling that Edge will main event the show and HHH will be somewhere in the mid card or be a part of one of the 3 main events.

I hope he does. Wouldn't make much sense to give him dusty wins at two PPV's only to lose the belt 2 months later.

Would make even less sense having him face HHH at WM only to be buried. I say have him lose the title in EC as it would be understandeble, then have him be in MITB....

Juan 02-03-2010 06:38 PM

Cena will most likely be wrestling Batista at WM, so he's not winning. Ted DiBiase is not winning it. Orton is most likely going to wrestle DiBiase at WM, so I don't see him winning it. Highly doubtful that Kofi will win. Which leaves only HHH and Sheamus

Does anything about his run make much sense?

Or maybe WWE will actually follow through with Sheamus' push. Just a thought. I'd say that even if Sheamus looses to HHH at Mania, being in a match of that caliber would do him much better than losing the title in a multi-man Elimination Chamber.

GD 02-03-2010 06:41 PM

It's kinda stupid but I was really happy when Sheamus won the WWE Championship cause he used to be an IT pro like yours truly.
