#3 Will a heel turn do anything for Cesaro?
Much less of a surprise was the heel turn we witnessed at the end of the Raw Tag Team Title match between Sheamus and Cesaro and the Hardy Boyz. There has been little bits of animosity building between the teams over the last few weeks on Raw, and if anyone were going to turn heel here, it would have to be Sheamus and Cesaro.
The only worry for Cesaro fans is that this seems like a bit of a demotion. People love to cheer for Cesaro, and most think he deserves better than the tag team title scene. It’s hard to see how a heel turn is going to help him reach any higher on the card than he currently is. Instead, the next few months will see him in that awkward limbo phase where he’s trying his best to come across as a villain but just gets cheered wherever he goes.
At the moment fans will probably be more behind the Hardys, and Sheamus will be able to soak up most of the heel heat. But when this feud is done, there aren’t going to be many on the roster that are more liked than the Swiss Superman. It all just feels a little unnecessary, but let’s hope I’m wrong.
