Drew McIntyre shows more than Sheamus

[stormwrestling]

Yes completely agree.

That's not supposed to sound sarcastic, btw. You pretty much said everything that needed to be said so I just agreed ;D

[Tapout]

Facial expressions are definitely better, but I don't think he's there yet in terms of body language. He still looks kind of awkward out there. They also don't really let him go at it in the ring. His moveset kind of sucks and the Stevie T is a terrible finisher.

McIntyre speaks even more quietly than Sheamus. Both men need to holler more.

[Schattenjager]

At least Drew has a last name. It's still a stupid name, but it's actually a name.

I like his finisher. But yeah, I do agree that they both need to emote more, especially McIntyre - the first time I heard him promo on SD! it sounded like he was mumbling. I'd be surprised if half the crowd couldn't hear him.

Yeah, when Smackdown was here last Septemeber, it was really hard to hear Drew. It even drew a "What?" chant, IIRC.

And normally a double armed DDT looks completely lazy (see: Foley, Mick), but he does his fluidly, fast, and impactful. It actually looks devestating to me. IMO, probably the best finisher out of the crop of new guys not named Ezekiel Jackson.

Look, fella...

Sheamus always calls someone a fella and Drew keeps rambling on about Parties. They have a lot they can build from with that.

Sheamus would way be better if he hollered all the time, and generally by being louder and angrier. And possibly having access to a time machine.

Also, whenever he's not on-screen, all the other wrestlers should ask "Where's Sheamus?"

I'm just hoping he doesn't have to leave because his home planet needs him. He might die on the way there!

Watch Micheal Cole try to tell us that his full name is actually She Amus.

Yes Drew McIntyre is better then Sheamus imo. You can't blame him for his body language, he has a really disproportionate body.

[Legion]

I can't say I'm a Sheamus fan. It's big and pale and can do power moves. So is/can Knox. Where's that got him?

Drew 'I look like a big Kendrick' McIntyre on the other hand is just plain awesome. He better go far.

Yeah, but not-big Kendrick was just plain awesome too. What's that got Drew?

[Deleted]

Personally, I think McIntyre is a complete joke in every way while Sheamus has a bright (pale?) future ahead of him, but difference of opinion.

[Bubble Lead]

Sheamus has a unique look, but thus far that is all he has going for him IMO.

As someone else said, so does Knox and that hasn't gotten him anywhere yet. In fact, Knox is way better in the ring and on the mic.

McIntyre is all right, but beyond being a lot younger I dont see what he has over, say, Stevie Richards [and I am not saying that just because of his finisher, they have a similar look and build and whatnot]. At this point he is above Sheamus in ability and mic skills but I dont get the whole FUTURE WORLD CHAMPION deal or why he got a PPV match above all the other people that could use that spot.

[Krimzon]

I honestly have no idea what people see in McIntyre. He hasn't really shown anything. His matches & movepool aren't interesting, he doesn't really stand out, and isn't much to write home about on the mic either. His music is vastly generic as his look.

Sheamus, on the other hand, has a great look, finisher, & has tremendous music. His accent is also a lot more awesome. Unlike Drew, he's actually accomplished something in destroying Jamie Noble beyond repair. He also has a better match library than Drew at this point. Hell, Sheamus' feud with Goldust is better than anything Drew has ever done.

Niether of these guys are that impressive to me right now.

By Thor's hammer, if one of them doesn't say "There can be only one!" or "You wanna get outta here - talk to me!" Pretty soon - someone's going in the damn thunderdome!

I'm forced to agree.

They need to start letting Drew McIntyre have actual matches more often. The "so vicious he can't even work a match" gimmick is a horrible one. Who had it last? Nathan Jones?

Put them against each other like in RQW on the wrestling channel and watch the money roll in.
