The clip hit home because that moment when cena beat nexus after the concrete ddt, I thought did harm to the product, creative and especially wade's career. Wade has the look and the mic skill to be a top guy but has been given jack shit to do, is there hope for him in your opinions?

I got a good vibe from the trio of wade ,sheamus and russev al being foreign and can play legit tough characters beyond cartoonish bullshit. They cant drop the king gimmick fast enough though

I honestly feel all three of Barrett, Rusev and yes even Sheamus are beyond saving now. Take each one in turn:

- Barrett: He was unfortunate with injuries but with changing his gimmick so many times, I really have no idea what direction he's going in and I don't think WWE know either. The length of time he has now been in WWE I find it disappointing he has not been in the WWE/WHC picture nor has he had a reign. I can't see how he can be put into it given a pecking order appears to have developed: Lesnar again at some point, Cena will break Flair's record, Ambrose, Rollins if he can get his shit together, potentially Bray Wyatt, heck in a moment of lunacy should he return from injury they may even give Sting another shot or a run. The issue is with TNA pretty much nearing the end (it will be gone by the end of 2016 I think) where else would he go? ROH? The new GFW? Japan?

-Rusev. Allowing Rusev to lose to Cena at WM was the biggest mistake they could have made. Up to that point the character was interesting, parading as a Russian, rubbing it into American noses, unbeaten. He imo should have gone on a lengthy run potentially culminating in a WWE title reign. It might have reeked of Goldberg streak-esque but Goldberg was almost 20 years ago now. Since then the character and storylines are a joke. A perennial midcarder maybe the odd title shot if it's elimination chamber or something but nothing more.

-Sheamus. I hate the heel gimmick and stupid look and new music etc. The old music was so cool. Even with the briefcase I don't see him winning the title and if he does it wouldn't be for very long. I just sense he doesn't seem to be connecting with the fans this time around.
