5 Reasons Sheamus Cashing In Was Best For Business

3. Sheamus Is A Top Performer

It may have been forgotten over the last year or so, but for a while Sheamus was, at one point, one of the WWE's top in-ring performers. His feud with Daniel Bryan in 2012 may be defined by the 18-second monstrosity that was their WrestleMania opener, but it is often forgotten that this was followed by some of the best wrestling matches the company put on all year, no mean feat when you take into account the main summer feud saw Bryan squaring off with CM Punk. If there is one thing Sheamus has proven over the years, it is that he is as good as anyone in the business at taking a believable beating and giving back as good as he gets. With Sheamus as champion, hard-hitting main event matches are guaranteed, as when he is motivated the man brings a genuine big-fight feel and intensity to everything he does. This can do Roman Reigns a world of good as well. Reigns is another who doesn't mind being stiffed now and then, and a Reigns/Sheamus series of battles could provide some unexpected classics.
