The Celtic Warrior is in desperate need of some freshening up and a heel turn could do just that. A little attitude to wash away the smiles and jokes that have become beyond stale over the last two years would be greatly appreciated. A program with CM Punk, a man he has never had a defined storyline with, would do wonders in cementing that heel turn and at the same time, result in some tremendous matches to keep workrate fans happy. As a heel, Sheamus was a relentless and aggressive competitor who ruthlessly and violently assaulted some of the top babyfaces in the industry to make a name for himself. The beatings he dealt to John Cena and Triple H helped established him as a top star and since he turned babyface back in 2012, he lost a lot of the edge that helped him standout among the other competitors of the time. Without it, he has become rather one-dimensional and the crowd's reaction to him since returning from injury indicated their boredom with the character. Punk's ability to make every opponent better would help Sheamus regain momentum and ascend back to levels he has fallen far from over the last year.
