1. Sheamus! WarGames! MASS HYSTERIA!

Let's just say that Sheamus' comeback went over well with the live crowd in Indianapolis.

WWE had production problems with his mic, but that couldn't detract from the majesty of the moment as Sheamus led his Brawling Brutes troops into battle against Roman's Bloodline. They then got overwhelmed before Drew McIntyre ran out to even the odds and tease what's coming next at Survivor Series.

Sheamus, Ridge Holland, Butch and Drew vs. Roman, The Usos and Sami Zayn/Solo Sikoa is now all-but-nailed-on for WarGames. That sounds lovely, and so does the fact that WWE could probs spin out of the double cage effort into a 'B' pay-per-view title challenge from Sheamus to Reigns.

There are certainly worse ideas than that one. Sheamus proved himself all over again during those bruising bouts vs. GUNTHER, and he'd relish the chance to go hammer and tongs with Roman on a supershow early next year. Maybe at the Rumble?
