Right now one of the big complaints about Sheamus is his lack of characterization. Other than his Slammy speech, wherein he stated "Cena, I putcha throo a table, took yair titool, and blanked yer maithir with moy enormous Irish weenis! Daaaaa!" he's mostly a generic bully(character wise, not look wise) that mauls guys much smaller than he is and backs off from Cena. What do you want him to be to make him more interesting?
It's a bit late for this, but I'd like 2 things from him: 1) He says he'll be a fighting champion, but will only defend against guys who haven't had shots at the title(calling the current main eventers all "undeserving") whereupon each week he'll go up against someone like Jack Swagger or Kofi, with the idea that it'll be interesting because it will be fresh matchups AND he might loose at any time. He'll be forced to go against a "true" main eventer by some guest host at a PPV and go over that guy clean(HBK would work well for this) to legitimize his title run somewhat.
2) Either some kind of crazy Irish druids gimmick to add to the "Celtic Warrior" stuff(right now he just says it but doesn't make it any different from most other generic heel actions over the last few years), or make him be a fullblown Irish Catholic that comes out and tells everyone he's the goddamn WRATH-A GOD~! here to punish all these unrighteous bastards.

Though it's still also one of the funniest terms for penis I've ever heard. |

So Cena is now either "Born of a Virgin Father"(ouch) and some kind of Anti-Jesus, or was birthed from a test tube. Or maybe he's a homonunculus. Any of which makes him more interesting. |

The Celtic Warrior stuff is gone, off the table. He's been built up as a remorseless monster heel with no concept of honor. It doesn't make sense to book him as a proud son of Ireland, even though he still acts like that because he has no clue how to act in character. If you rewatch his "you're never gettin' it back, dah." speech again, you'll see he's smiling like a giddy young babyface who just won a beauty pageant, because that's clearly how he felt. Despite what any Irish newspaper prints about him, in kayfabe he's not a babyface and needs to stop acting like one.
As for what he should be, he should just act like a monster heel. He should look pissed off 100% of the time. His promos should be way, way shorter (very brief or just one-liners) and they should all be yelled in a very angry voice. (If they wanted him to go full-on heel, he'd turn his back on Ireland in his promos, but he just doesn't have the verbal or acting skills to pull that off.)
He NEEDS to drop the grinning babyface strut he uses when he comes to the ring, which makes no sense for his character. He is an evil scary monster heel and should look pissed off and frightening to small children. He also needs to continue to look pissed off as he walks back up the ramp from a match/beatdown/interference, since that camera shot has become one of the most important ones in WWE. The blank stare has to go.

My wife says Avon has a cream that will make him look darker. I want him to visit an Avon Lady.

Fits his entrance music. Have him say that he's come to the WWE because they've ruined the sport of Kings because they're a bunch of cowards and lowlives. Have him hate the Divas, especially hate Jerry Lawler, and keep the whole "give other people a shot at the title" thing. |

Keep Sheamus like he already is. I might be the only person on this board that is really high on this guy. He has a hell of a lot of potential and I would not be upset if he was still champ come Wrestlemania. I hope the IWC warms up to him more like I have.

I think his grin is the best part, I think it really gets the crowd upset at him, because he's such a mean person and totally loving every second of his mostly unmerited success (when he's not crawling away from a superior foe that is). Sheamus is, to my untrained eyes looking at the product for the first time in a very long time (due to Bret), the best thing they have going if they handle it right, and let him hold the belt for a long time despite clearly not being up to beating his challengers in any way fairly (ala Yokozuna or Honky Tonk Man). Sheamus is no Dibiase on the mic, but remember that he basically came in right at the top as well. Watch those crowds, they hate Sheamus, but that might just be because they like the Cena guy. Time will tell.

Sheamus is a malevolent, amoral force of nature. Sheamus breaks the land, raises the sea, and makes the wind rage through the burnt up sky. Sheamus laughs a hearty laugh and smiles with a mad gleam in his eyes as he cripples men and ends their careers for the sheer hell of it.
Sheamus will destroy whatever's in his path, 'cause he can.

I'm crazy about Sheamus myself, and I think despite all the internet back-and-forth over his push, the guy is really good. I don't mind the austere character he has now because there's time for him to grow into something else when necessary. It would be a lot more disappointing to me if he were completely one-dimensional instead of just a blank canvas (heh heh) for the moment.

I want him to be Sheamus: Ginger Avenger. Picture The Legacy picking on some poor ginger kid who wanted to go backstage and meet the Superstars, only for Sheamus to come along and save the day. Of course, that would require him to turn face, but it might work considering everyone hates gingers. Flanderize him to the point where all he can say is "DAAAAAAAAAAH!!!" Or this. |
