And nothing of value was lost. Just a goofy looking hoss. This. I don't know how anyone can see him and not want to punch their tv. He's like one of those things you squeeze at the bottom and the eyes and ears bug out up top. I hate to look at him and do not miss him in the slightest.

Glad in a way, as long as he comes back and gets a better name than Skip Sheffield.

I think he earned a lot of goodwill by virtue of his sudden badassery in The Nexus beatdown, but outside of that he is a bit generic.

I see Skip as a poor man's Batista. Probably not a future nine-time World champ or anything, but with a little work he could be very useful in an upper-midcard position. There's no real reason why he couldn't be a Batista with the right booking. He's got the look, some charisma, can work a bit, and can talk a bit. He's actually a little better than Batista if you take all that into account. Batista was just a generic hoss until he was given the Evolution storyline.

Sheffield and Tarver both look genuinely crazy, that added a dynamic to the Nexus that they cant replace

They are crazy to take Skip out. He added to the intimidation factor of the group. I would be more willing to fight the entire Nexus group in a dark alley than fight Skip Sheffield. That is intimidation.

strap a rocket to Sheffield. feud him with nexus for the title and have him demolish nexus. dont give him the belt but show he can destroy nexus and you have a new main eventer on your hands Great idea

Without those guys (and removing McGillicutty and Harris from the equation), it just looks like Legacy, Version 2.0. Another college fraternity group of guys, with Wade playing the role as the older, wiser Professor; almost like Giles in Buffy.

He was a legitimate monster and it was obvious that WWE wanted to keep him in the group and not Otunga.
Nexus has been lacking since their Seven Deadly Sinners days.

Reminds me of the guy from The Nanny. Too bad he can't use his real name. Ryan Reeves is like something out of a comic book.

They should still be seven strong and we should still be making Black Cena jokes

I paid waaaay to much for this flat-screen to just be putting my fist through it. B.) For some odd reason, I have this feeling that if I even thought about him negatively, Skip Sheffield will know. Then he would come looking for me. They should follow the Batista model and just call him Sheffield. The Skip part is goofy. Still not good. Reminds me of the guy from The Nanny. Too bad he can't use his real name. Ryan Reeves is like something out of a comic book. "Ryan Reeves" reminds me of... So...I guess you're right.

New Gimmick: Terminator Skip Sheffield.
Have him just come out of dark rooms, grabbing Superstars and tying them to chairs in said dark room.
