Alberto Del Rio Vs. Sheamus: Take 2

Alberto Del Rio will once again be getting a title shot against Sheamus. He had earned a title shot a month ago. He got it, but so did Randy Orton and Chris Jericho. This time around, unless the WWE plans to throw in Santino and Ricardo, this will be a 1-on-1 match.

Before the WWE inserted Jericho and Orton into the last PPV World's Heavyweight Championship match, I was wondering how they planned to make this match between Del Rio and Sheamus more interesting. Their answer, as I just said, was to add in two more top workers. And now, I am going to wonder the same thing all over again. How will the WWE make the feud between Sheamus and Del Rio more interesting? So far, they have been doing more with Del Rio, Ricardo, and Santino than Del Rio and Sheamus. In all honesty, it would probably have been more fun to just run with the former storyline, not the World title feud. So what if it led to Del Rio winning the U.S. title? Or even Ricardo? It would be better than running a boring title feud between Sheamus and Del Rio.

Nevertheless, the WWE has options to make this feud good. No Way Out will be a gimmick PPV. So what type of match will this feud lead to? Better yet, since they have inserted Santino in this, they can run with that a little further. A tag match between Del Rio/Ricardo and Sheamus/Santino would be an obvious route. But it can also make for some more good comedy segments. Important thing is, they have to bring Sheamus in more. That is how you make this more than just a basic title feud.

Finally, I would say that Del Rio should win the title this time. If they are ever going to put the title back on Orton, it pretty much should go to a heel first. Sheamus vs. Orton? Face vs. face? What I really don't like there is that this feud has already happened for a major title, although both were not faces at the time, obviously. Del Rio vs. Orton? That's fresh. The WWE obviously wants to go to this path eventually, so why not now?
