Barrett, Sheamus, Morrison & Ziggler

It really did seem like the "fresh face" movement got stifled a bit. Even Miz was an afterthought to the Rock vs. Cena feud.

However, if we're being absolutely honest, those guys weren't going to be the ones who put the butts in the seats. People paid to see Rock, Austin, HHH, Taker, Snooki and Trish's boobs/ass/thong.

Morrison, Sheamus, Ziggler and Barrett... not so much. I do believe that Sheamus vs. HHH and Barrett vs. Taker could have been done and done well though.

The way the Taker vs. HHH match went with Hunter dominating throughout and then getting caught in Hell's Gate could have easily been replicated in a no DQ match between Barrett and Taker. The history was there too considering it was Barrett directing Nexus to bury Taker alive and if it was no DQ you could have Taker fighting off the Corre as well or even have the Corre get taken out in a 6 man tag squash by Kane, Big Slow and Kofi.

The history was also there with Sheamus and Trips.

Morrison and Ziggler were probably best served in the roles they had.
