    I'm not one of those people who think he shouldn't have won the World Heavyweight Championship when he did. I think it was a good move that would have worked if he had a better gimmick or improved on his gimmick. The "All American American" character would definitely work better today because WWE focuses more on character/gimmick than just storylines and sometimes wrestling. Hell the gimmick could have worked back in 2013, all you gotta do is have Zeb Colter be a coach like Bob Backland was to Darren Young.

    Not decent, he was always really good in the ring. It's his mic work and charisma where he always lacked, Zeb Colter filled that void with "We the People" which was really huge, almost as much as "Rusev day" if y'all remember. Once the Bell rang, he was athletic enough to put great Matches, and out of everyone besides Chad Gable and Jason Jordan, he had the best opportunity to be the next Kurt Angle. They should've have given him a manager to begin with in his ECW days and Swagger himself should've been involved in his character development behind the scenes, based on his early run, it seemed he never got involved with anything backstage, which he should've. As for "We the People", had potential, he fumbled it himself, could've been wayy better.

    Jack Swagger had the the in ring ability and aura around him to become a main eventer but since his cash in his charisma was gone and replaced this generic gimmick. I remember his insufferable bully jock gimmick but he was so green with his charisma. I can see why Cena didn't put him over.
    He's We The People run had great potential and was the right man to dethrone Del Rio for the World Heavyweight championship but off field scandals ultimately ruined his push and was stuck in mid card hell, never to get close to the main event ever again. He never really formed a proper character and improved on his charisma to get fans over. Jack Swagger is "What could have been" wrestler had he improved on his character and charisma though his in ring ability is undeniable.
