Sheamus gets a bad rap for his world title runs and the 18 second thing. Very underrated as a performer. Total physical freak, and charismatic in a bulldozer bully type of way. Was he a top guy the way WWE wanted? No, but they could have chosen far worse people to be champion...and have.

I would hope the injury gets resolved.


I have mixed feelings on Sheamus' world title runs honestly. Hardly anyone saw his first reign coming cause he was fresh out of ECW and was still clobbering low carders before getting a match with Cena all of a sudden. Second reign was okay, but despite being WWE Champion, Sheamus was overshadowed by the Nexus angle during said reign. Supposedly Bryan had a slight injury around WrestleMania 28 and they didn't want to take the risk at the time, hence the 18 seconds. Sheamus' third reign (his longest) was not that bad, the only problem was seeing Sheamus vs. Alberto Del Rio on way too many occasions.

The only world title reign I didn't like of his was the 4th and most recent one. First off, Sheamus never should have won MITB in 2015. Then WWE ruins the whole idea of a tournament by having the winner lose the belt in 5 minutes after said tournament ends. At that point, Sheamus was just put in a bad situation with The League of Nations and feuding with Reigns. The good? A good portion of fans cheered for Reigns for at least 2 weeks when he finally took the belt off of Sheamus.

But 2 final things to end this on...
1) You're right, WWE has picked worse people to hold a World title than Sheamus. Most notably and recently Jinder, but there's definitely others too.
2) If it's the same injury as Edge and Austin, I hope nothing but the best for Sheamus. I'm still amazed Edge wrestled the types of matches he did after said injury for the final 8 years of his career.
