I know the whole "snap/badass submission machine" thing is a very beaten dead whore around here, but this could honestly work for Swagger.

At the very least, as I've stated elsewhere, they need to repackage him as something other than a blatant Kurt Angle clone. Change up his look. Have him keep the 5 o'clock of a guy on a losing streak, have his hair all ragged, (important) have the announcers put over his losing streak and his frustration, ditch the singlet and the patriotic color scheme, and give him an edge.

There is something to having him be able to take the piss out of Ryback and yet not be able to "beat" him. Could give him and Skippy something to do in the way of a program.
