Sheamus isn't even more over than Orton right now and he's in neutral. Fact is dude is getting the superman push and doesn't connect with the crowd nearly as well as a heel/tweener D Bry with half the push. Their reactions aren't so far apart to be making a statement about it. He's not nearly as over as he should be and I kinda like dude.

:cheers: That is why Orton isn't a heel yet.

You mean before he got a title push?

No, I mean during the title push and while he held the title. Up until a few weeks before Mania, Mark Henry was THE heel, and Bryan was in a supporting Ziggler role. He didn't take off until after the WM debacle.

Sheamus was getting "what?" chants not too long ago.

So has Bryan, and Punk, and Vickie, and Cena, and Vince. What is your point?

The thing is that a smark moment happened at Mania where the crowd repudiated a WWE created fukk up. That moment happened nine months ago. But since the IWC doesn't get many moments of that magnitude you all aren't content to just let it be. Now you have spun a legitimate moment into a myth.

The way the IWC tells it, Daniel Bryan is a massively over guy who can be put into any situation and make shyt into sugar and it's always been that way. He came into WM as a MASSIVELY POPULAR champion and Sheamus was getting X-Pac heat.

The reality is that five to six months prior to Mania, Bryan was getting reactions that Tyler Reks would :heh: at. Two months before Mania he was getting mild but inconsistent heat comparable to what Dolph Ziggler is getting now. After the mindbogglingly stupid booking of the WM match, the already catchy YES thing took off in an open rebellion against WWE stupidity. Sheamus got booed (but not out of the building and the Brogue Kick heard round the world even got a big pop, it was after it was over the crowd realized they got fukked over) in the aftermath but all of that peaked within a few weeks. Unconfirmed reports of sign tampering and sound editing were taken as gospel, despite the fact that a YES shirt went on sale the next week and the same dirt sheets reported the WWE was planting YES signs for crowd use.

Bryan reached new heights yes, I take nothing away from him. He ate that burial like a Scooby Snack. And that's amazing. That's a great moment. So why taint it with exaggeration? And why omit key facts? The main one being that Sheamus became a face in the first place because he was also getting cheered as a heel. They then took what got him cheered, tossed it in the :trash: and gave us the Sheamus we see today.

Bryan on the other hand is pretty much a face now and his character change has been minimal. He's still the same eccentric, geeky, a$$hole YES/NO screaming b*stard that got over huge post WM. This ridiculous tag team with Kane allowed them to exaggerate those traits the crowd loves and made the transition to a face much easier. So yeah, he's gotten "half the push," but that half has been written and plotted better than Sheamus' whole.

For Sheamus to be over at all is amazing and the fact that he's so over that you all still try to downplay it months later is downright hilarious. Bryan's character was tweaked for success, Sheamus' was tweaked for failure. So, instead of saying, "Imagine how over Bryan would be if he got Sheamus' push," we should instead be asking, "How much MORE over would Sheamus be if he not only got to keep the character traits that forced his face turn, but had them expanded upon?"

Seems like some of you are talking about who's more over right now at this moment, and others are talking about who was over more in the past year. Which is it? The latter makes this debatable I guess. Right now going by pops alone I will side with D-Bry, but am no way saying Sheamus isn't over - you'd have to be deaf to say so. I'm confused as to why a poll was created as I've yet to read anyone in TSC say Sheamus is not over - they'll clown him for other shyt, but that's it.

this is all due to bias.

im no fan of sheamus but wwe turned him face and the crowd has ran with him ever since. stop referring to a smark crowd at wm to base your judgements..

he has no catch phrases or anything and is over the natural way, the fans accepted him when he turned face without a push at the very start.

they pushed him strong after they saw the reaction. sheamus is a real champion and will be many times, who knows if db will even get another shot.

bet the bank shame taking that belt back this sunday and db laying down for ambrose.

Fella is his catch phrase and he's the only guy that can still say "ass" in every promo because of his accent.

Its funny how you Sheamus guys seem intent on trying to write off smart crowds and their opinions and instead care more about what 10 year olds like. :heh: Odd

the E would be out of their mind not to put a strap on DB after Hell No is done if the crowd responds to him like they have. But the crowd was dead in teh beginning of his match with Rey until he woke them up by crossing his arms and yelling no.

At times the building electrifies upon hearing his music reminiscent of RKO, whereas Sheamus is less deafening but more consistent.

Sheamus is shaky on the mic at times and got booed against a heel Punk in their confrontation before their match on Raw a couple months back.

I can't call it cuz on any given night one could be more over than the other

"Fella"

"Arse"

and DB will get another shot. They got this dude potentially main eventing a PPV as a Tag champion. Sheam will probably curtain jerk and contend for a heavyweight title that barely gets relevant tv time on RAW.
