It just occurred to me that he's in the fight, and with them mentioning on SD tonight that Sheamus wants to unify the titles, and with them seemingly taking the WHC out of the picture on Raw, I can see him winning it so he can retire the US title.
The hilarity in all this is that WWE2K15 is rumored to focus around WCW, and the two titles that trace their legacy back to WCW probably won't be around on TV for it.

Sheamus doesn't need to win it really. If they want to unify the titles then they should do it at Summerslam, make it mean more. Having them just be unified after a guy wins a battle royal doesn't seem like a big deal to me. Granted, neither of those belts is exactly a big deal right now, but I think it would better to hold off on that moment until they have a bigger venue.
Maybe have Cesaro win on Sunday and then him and Sheamus can face off in a title unification match at Summerslam. No doubt those two could have a Hell of a match together, and when all is said and done you might have a title that means a little more than the previous two did before. And if you have Cesaro win, well, then that might just undo some of the damage that's been done over the past few weeks.

Cesaro is my pick. They've been setting up too much for him to do in the time after as well as conditioned people to see him as a loser like every other IC Champion lately.

I hope the Miz wins this. 100% serious.
Wade Barrett is presenting the title to the winner. With Miz doing the "not in the face" gimmick first perfected by Rick Martel and HBK, it could set up a great face turn for Barrett.
"Miz, the only reason I have to give you this belt is because I hurt my shoulder...congratulations. (hands Miz the title) (Miz turns and acts like a jackass) But, I'm afraid I've got some bad news. (hits Bullhammer) My Bullhammer arm is still 100% healthy!"

I'm so hoping for Sheamus. This might be one of the few times that people are clamouring for Sheamus to win, because holy balls, do they need to unify those titles. The last thing they need is another guy to always lose while Champion.

I hope he does. The WCW relic titles need to go away for good. If they want another midcard singles title, bring back the Hardcore Title and do some more fun segments with the 24/7 rules.

I'd be OK with him winning the title if it meant ditching the US championship

Sheamus wins the belt.
WWE decides to be cute however, by somehow having Sheamus lose the US title earlier in the night.

I don't think Bo is ready to be IC Champion. I feel like he will be exposed the moment he has to start working with people higher up the card like Ziggler, Sheamus, RVD, Del Rio and Miz. He'll look out of his element next to them and due to the nature of his character, he can't use heel tactics to compensate for that. Bo is fine as he is as a lower carder who actually gets to win matches. I can't see him moving further than that unless he improves in the ring or tweaks his character a bit. Maybe if the IC and US belts are unified and a dedicated lower card title is introduced, Bo can win that title. |

Jesus, I do not want to see Sheamus win. If you want to unify the titles, have someone better win the IC title then beat Sheamus for the US title at Summerslam. I'm personally hoping for Bo Dallas, but Cesaro or a swerve from BNB would work, too.

Yeah at this point have Sheamus tease it but come in 2nd at the PPV, then challenge the winner to a unification at SS. Might as well go with Cesaro in that role, though Miz is actually getting more screen time of late.
