It’s no secret that Sheamus is a long-time fan of Liverpool F.C. so naturally, the events of March 5th made him a very happy Celtic Warrior indeed.
Heading into the game Liverpool were coming off the back of a 2-0 win over Wolves, as they attempted to rebuild their season and get into the Champions League places. Meanwhile, Manchester United were flying high after winning the League Cup and following up with a win in the F. A Cup 5th round.
Although many expected a close game Liverpool ran out 7-0 winners as United crumbled. The defeat marked the Red Devils’ heaviest loss in the league since 1931.
Unsurprisingly, Sheamus thoroughly enjoyed himself and the celebrations were well underway long before the game was even over.
Is The Friendship Between Sheamus And Drew McIntyre On The Rocks?
After spending much of the last few years engaging in a series of increasingly violent matches, the pair got back on the same page ahead of Survivor Series in 2022 to battle with The Bloodline. Since then, the former World Champions have teamed together regularly, even challenging The Usos for the Undisputed Tag Team Titles. However, that partnership could be coming to an end.
On the March 3rd episode of SmackDown Drew McIntyre came to the ring, and called out Gunther, challenging him to a match at WrestleMania 39. But it wasn’t the Austrian who answered the call, it was Sheamus, and he wasn’t happy.
Sheamus has been on a quest to win the Intercontinental Title for months given it’s the only WWE championship he’s never held. So he wasted little time in dressing down McIntyre, claiming that his friend had gone behind his back.
It has been announced that Drew McIntyre, Sheamus, Kofi Kingston, LA Knight, and Karrion Kross will meet in a Fatal-Five-Way on March 10th to decide who will go on to face Gunther at WrestleMania 39.
