I am actually going with Sheamus here. I really enjoyed his first title reign and Bob Backlund's second title reign was only a one nighter.

I didn't watch any of Backlund's reign but I'm voting for him because if Sheamus makes it further than Austin I'm going to go on a strangling rampage.

Didn't even watch any Backlund matches, I'm a huge Sheamus fan so I went Sheamus.

Sheamus was my choice, liked his first reign way more than any of Backlund's.

The people selecting Sheamus need a history lesson.

Not better than Backland's first reign surely? Sheamus is one for the future, but Backland takes this one for me.

Sheamus will never get my vote, unless he was up agaisnt Jeff Hardy.

Not that I find Sheamus to be rerrible, there's just something that annoys me about him.
