I'm curious to know, what are you guys' thoughts on the 'All American American'? I see a few people on Twitter constantly saying how amazing he is & can't tell if they're being genuine or trying to be ironic(Some of them clearly are but won't admit to it). He isn't bad in the ring, don't get me wrong - but I just don't see him as anything special. His world title run was a flop & he doesn't have that much personality, in my eyes. I rarely take notice of him. Best suited in the mid card, at least for now until he proves me otherwise. For the record, I don't dislike Jack & I'd love to see him succeed, I briefly took notice of him and got behind him when he returned in early 2013 with the Real American gimmick but after he got ed for weed or whatever & his push ended, I went right back to where I was with him before.

Perfect midcarder.

When he first showed up on ECW, I was actually a fan of his. Liked when they put the ECW TItle on him, but once they tossed him onto Raw out of no where, it began me not really caring about him. He's just too boring, and I hate how they gave him the ankle lock for a finisher. His World Title win was also a clear cut case of trying to get a guy over by putting the belt on him, instead of building him up to make him believable as champion. I also thought it was stupid, how as soon as he won the title, I'm talking the instant he won it, they had him go all serious. Prior to that there was always the grin, cockiness, then his hand's raised, and he's got the blank serious look. The beginning of the reign made it seemed like they were trying to turn him into serious Jericho.

He could be doing a lot better than he is. He's great in the ring. I'm not saying give him the belt, but do more with him.

Swagger is underrated. It sucks that he got busted for drunk driving and having weed in his car since he was on his way to getting a big push with Zeb as WHC. I'd love for him to win the WWE World Title one day.
Right now he needs the US Title. Have him hold onto the Title for a long time and put him in actual storylines for once, along with Zeb that would bring a lot of prestige back to the lame US Title.

Talented and under utilized.

Love the guy, but any lack of push he gets will be his own fault after what happened last year. He had a golden ticket. An amazing new manager and gimmick, an Elimination Chamber win, and a match for the second biggest title around that he was probably going to win, at WrestleMania no less.

I like Swagger. I think his gimmick could go through something as it was with Kurt Angle, an Olympic athlete amateur. I didn't know this weed in the car thing. He's a jobber today and this must be because of weed. It's a shame because he has talent to go further.

Ideal US Champ. He should never have been World champion.

it looks like it hurts to be in the ring with him at times, and it hurts to watch him at times...i don't think they protected him enough on his rise so he got into a form of his career being in arrested development.

I love the guy. I felt like his first WHC run was a total joke, but then when he was paired up with Zeb, I thought he'd get another shot. I know he got in trouble & it is what it is. I just don't want to see him fade into oblivion.

I'm a Swagger fan, and I feel he's very underutilized.
But, he shot himself in the foot last year with his arrest.

He's amazing talent who is still young. WWE just needs to repackage him. He could still be a major player.

The cocky ECW champion was awesome. He botched his legit push chance when he got caught with weed. So he should have a nice spot on the roster as a mid carder or tag team worker.

Personally I like him and think he could do well. Unfortunately I think he lacks the passion and desire to make the most of his career and he has already reached his peak years back.

One of the few big guys that can go in the ring. He needs Zeb by his side as he suits Swagger perfectly. But unfortunately, I believe Swagger already reached his peak.
