It's weird how things like that come to be. The audience popped huge for Big Red, like they knew he was a face all of a sudden.
I'm really happy to see this, as I've been wanting him to work face for a long time. He's a badass, with a different look, and a cool accent, the fans want to get behind people like that.

As long as he doesn't end up dancing a merry jig with Hornswoggle (and given the fact that he's stuck in the dark purgatory that is NXT for the forseeable future, that ain't happening), this face run will be great.

It could be huge, but they have to make sure they KEEP HIM A BADASS. If they don't, this will flounder.

Orton punting him was the best thing to happen to his career. When he came back after that, he became consistently badass.

Keep Hornswoggle out of this and face Sheamus is destined to be huge.

I might be in the minority, but I'm looking forward to some Sheamus/Hornswoggle shenanigans.

Ive said it elsewhere, but if they keep him a no nonsense badass (think Bikertaker) this will work

I'd say he is. And if like has been mentioned they keep the core of the character, only now he fights heels; he'll be huge.

I know I said in the past that Sheamus could be their next big face. I still think it... Now even more. I marked RIDICULOUSLY HARD for Sheamus tonight.

Just look at him, he looks like a cartoon character, and it's all natural too. Remember when they had Diesel kiss babies and how much of a pussy he was once he turned face? Expect the same. |

He's already smiling and making Cena-ish jokes. 450 pounds of crap??? I hope I'm wrong.

Now, any chance we can get him the face paint back?    He looks like a damn demon. |

I'm fine with him and Hornswoggle being a temporary one-off team if and only if he uses Hornswoggle as a bat.

I have a bad feeling about this. He comes out and thanks Teddy Long before taking the mic and making a really crappy joke while smiling the whole time.
Don't get me wrong, face Sheamus is a great idea...on paper.
However this is WWE. A badass Sheamus that does not smile, does not laugh, does not suck up and say please and thanks to authority and who does not make silly jokes could work. But I have a bad feeling WWE will take the more usual well worn road with his character. The one where we will see him smile and be friendly and lose everything that made his character cool in the first place. I hope WWE prove me wrong.
