• Sheamus Could Be Forced To Retire From WWE
It looks like the WWE career of “The Celtic Warrior” Sheamus (age 41) could be coming to an end.
Sheamus is currently out of action with a concussion, but that’s not the only issue he’s dealing with. Sheamus has spinal stenosis (the same condition that led to the in-ring retirement of Edge & Paige).
Word going backstage in WWE is that people are impressed with how Sheamus can still go in the ring with such an injury, but people are wondering how long he will last (given the fact that spinal stenosis is a serious issue and WWE takes no chances with serious injuries).
Below is what Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful had to say about Sheamus:

“I had heard last year that there were a lot of people that were surprised that Sheamus could still wrestle as effectively as he could considering some of the injury issues and the pain that he had been in.

The thing I was told by one wrestler was that if he got through WrestleMania [35] that would be really awesome. Not as if they were hoping that or the company was hoping that, but that wrestler personally was hoping that Sheamus could get through this WrestleMania and he did and that was about it.

A bad neck and then you get a concussion on top of that, that’s not hot.”

Let’s hope his career is not over yet. However, if it is, he’s done enough to secure a future spot in the WWE Hall of Fame.

Below are Sheamus’ accomplishments during his 10 year career on the WWE main roster:

– 3x WWE Champion
– 1x World Heavyweight Champion
– 2x United States Champion
– 4x RAW Tag Team Champion
– 1x SmackDown Tag Team Champion
– King Of The Ring 2010 Winner
– Royal Rumble 2012 Winner
– Money In The Bank 2015 Winner
– 4x Slammy Award Winner

I wasn’t a huge fan at all. His heavyweight championship runs were boring af but I felt he really came into his own in The Bar. I liked them as a team. Hope he bounces back from this
 
He had a nice run. Really good move set for a big man. Looks to be a really good shape even with the injuries

Damn he 41??

Yeah he should retire. Not worth the long term risks. I'm sure he can do other things w/n the WWE outside the ring.
 
Sheamus‘s has a youtube channel where he does other wrestlers workouts. it’s pretty dope if y’all are interested in trying out different workout routines

Sheamus also seems to be a cool guy. it’ll suck for his career to end like that but you can’t play around with that kind of injury
 
How Braun Strowman Caused Heat On Himself After Botching WrestleMania Spot

Last updated May 13, 2019
Braun Strowman can reportedly be his own worst enemy backstage in WWE. This was amplified by the fact that he botched spots at WrestleMania and now he seems to have even less of a direction in the company.

Vince McMahon was upset about a botched spot from The Monster Among Men during the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal on the WrestleMania kickoff show. This could have gone much worse if Harper wasn’t involved.

Fightful reports that the botched spot in the battle royal involved Harper who wasn’t happy at all about this mistake. Braun Strowman reportedly “forgot his spot and Ali ended up hurt in the match.”

Ali later confirmed that he was okay after taking a scary bump, but it was not in the plan for him to take such a risk.

Strowman hit Harper with a stiff kick as well which didn’t help things. Also, while Harper was trying to catch Ali during his dangerous fall the former Wyatt Family member hurt his “back and/or shoulder trying to keep [Ali] from flying out of control.”

It was also reported that Braun Strowman later thought that he did nothing wrong. This also caused a bit of tension backstage that further escalated the situation.
 
I think it's a wrap for Sheamus. If Edge/Stone Cold had to retire early from the ring Vince will probably force him to do so as well.

If I'm WWE, I'm not putting him back in the ring b/c they are playing with fire. I do feel bad in a way for Cesaro b/c he should at least had 1 World Title reign during his WWE run. With the creative mess that WWE is now, he's going to be lost in the shuffle.
