I agree however I think the criticism at the start was justified. When he first started he wasn’t ready to be on WWE TV, he wasn’t good enough in the ring, he didn’t look like a pro wrestler, he hadn’t earned his spot. He’s now improved his in ring work cuts great promos and they have found a way for his character to make sense to his strengths and his flaws.

Did everyone just collectively forget about The Bar's existence? Sheamus and Cesaro kicked ass as a team, and it was that run which started making people change their minds about Sheamus. For some reason when people discuss him earning the fans' respect they tend to forget that part.

Maybe my memory has failed me but I feel like Sheamus was over and wasn't thought of as untalented before then. Granted it pushed him on and he has become more respected since then, but he'd had several title reigns, high profile feuds and big PPV matches. I think this list is more about wrestlers being written off from day 1, not 8 years into their career.

Still, that program with Shin in the Fed🤢

Sheamus' good will with fans honestly started around the time of The Bar forming. There he was having bangers before he made it his catchphrase where he and Cesaro/Claudio held up the tag division on either show they were on. But him as a solo act did start to pick up steam around the time of his matches with Drew.

The Cena US Open Challenge-era was so damn good and a testament to that is how often WWE (and other promotions) have tried to recapture its magic. That said, Miz (for me) should have been #1. The dork in the dorky hat with the lame outfit and even more lame finisher should have been a flash-in-the-pan, especially after the locker room turned on him too. But him persevering, honing his craft, establishing his act, and (after a brief stint as The Calgary Kid) getting serious, set him up for life. When you have the ability to be slotted into any position on the card and make it work, you are valuable, and Miz is priceless when you couple that with his knowledge of how to handle media appearances, etc.

Anyone who wants to disparage Miz would do well to take a look at the clip from that 2004 Tough Enough where he participates in a "Body Slam Challenge" from Big Show. Of that entire contest lineup (including the future Ryback), Miz was the only guy who knew how to take a body slam CORRECTLY - you see him "post" to help Show stabilize and control the momentum, he bumps properly, he SELLS it properly, and he rolls out of the way. Everybody else either didn't know how to do it right or deliberately tried to sandbag Show (which led to a few of them getting rather painful receipts from the big man). Bottom line, Miz knows what he's doing, and he always has. And he works his ass off. The only guy who's ever had more "do whatever's asked of him" work ethic is Cena. Die mad about it.

Excellent vid but I don't agree with the sheamus one I'd say he's been over since the bar days him and Cesaro changed themselves around with their storyline

I just can't get over how much heat Dominik can generate week after week. On pure crowd reaction, he has to be one of the greatest heels, possibly ever.

Awesome job on the video Adam 👍

I would say that Sheamus really started getting over as The Bar with Cesaro. They were super entertainimg as a tag team and honestly, "WE DON'T SET THE BAR. WE ARE THE BAR!" was a great catchphrase.

One slight disagreement I have here is that saying Cena pushed at the expense of other more popular wrestlers and not qualifying that with "internet fans", is not really accurate because was definitely the most popular with kids and probably women.

@jackwells8107

Жыл бұрын

And honestly, I loved Cena when he first appeared - that match he had with Angle was incredible. I think Cena started okay and was pushed to be unpopular.

The Undertaker was told from the head ups in WCW that NO ONE would pay $$ to watch him wrestle. He walked into the future as the character of The Undertaker and NEVER looked back.

Also The Rock, JBL, Batista. Die Rocky Die is so famous it's in every video about wrestlers who overcame bad gimmicks. JBL went from mid card tag teamer to main event overnight and no one thought he had 'it' but he did. And Batista started out as Deacon Batista as the 2nd fiddle to Reverend Devon. But I get it, you had to limit it to 10.

"I am Irish and I like to kick people" seems deeper than most WWE stars we get nowadays.

Miz definitely for me. I HATED him as a singles guy, but when he and Morrison teamed up he really won me over. Dirt Sheet was AMAZING as well. Always loved it when Morrison would start the show with some silly random fact about himself, and there was more than one occasion Miz looked like he was gonna walk off set and roll his eyes in disgust over whatever ridiculous thing Morrison had said. It was hilarious.

Sheamus in the bar is criminally underrated, he was so cool

2:25 I loved when he debuted and used a hanging choke

I personally loved Sheamus the first time I saw him wrestle, which was at a house show the night before he debuted on the main roster.

Still left to be seen, but currently I'm feasting on humble pie in regards to Dom.

Sheamus was always my favorite, from his ECW debut till now...i did doubt him when he changed his look 😅

5:38 I honestly didn't see much of a big deal from the Hangman when he was recruited to the Bullet Club in 2016 and became part of the Elite. It was when the Elite had their inner civil war, BTE bits, All In, the rise of AEW, and the Cowboy Sh*t arc that Adam Page grew on me and saw everything in his story until he finally won the AEW World Championship at Full Gear ⚙️ 2021.

You forgot about the Dwayne "the Rock" Johnson. Remember Rocky Maivia? Many people forget. But hey. He became the People's Champion. Do you smell what I am cooking?

When i think of this question! Miz, and cena come to mind automatically

Finally miz getting some love on a video

Good on ya Dom Mysterio who've showing people how good you are really good as a heel and as a wrestler so 😊

Dominick just isn’t technically strong in the ring. At this point in his career he’s better leaning toward his strengths doing character work as a sleazy heal that doesn’t need his actual mat work to be that good.

I've been a fan of Dom from Day ☝🏽

The Bar is the reason Sheamus got over with the fans.

Aj said Vince didn't know what to do with him after his Royal Rumble appearance but thank God Vince actually got Aj coming to WWE right

Sheamus definitely had turned around the best of 7 series with Cesaro. It happened a few years ago instead of just 2020.

I get nobody was a big fan of Sheamus but he has always been my favorite.

People are starting to realize Dominik is reliving the Eddie Guerrero X Chyna run with Rhea Ripley...

No The Rock? The dude who went from “Die Rocky Die” to biggest name in the business within 6 years?

Hey, I think you’re wrong about Shamus, I think it was his tag team in the Bar that made people think differently about him

The only people I didn't believe in was Hangman, Bryan, and Strowman. All the other guys either I was too young to think for or I never thought they were bad.

Saying Dominic has made it is being very very generous. I don't think he has proven much of anything in the ring. Outside of the ring a little bit yes. But not in it.
