9 Wrestlers AEW Will Sign In 2024

9. Sheamus

Sheamus desperately wanted to win the Intercontinental title, or at least do something after failing to win it, and has expressed disillusionment with WWE more than once after Clash At The Castle in 2022.

Speaking to the Daily Star in August of this year, Sheamus - who in the aftermath of his Cardiff masterpiece woke up more than one library of a WWE TV crowd when in the form of his life - was "really bothered about the creative after that". He said, rightly, that WWE did nothing with him - and even went to the candid lengths of saying that WarGames was "sh*t" last year.

Did he dislike the babyface advantage?

Judging by comments later captured by the Daily Mail, perhaps the Bloodline is the cause of his discontent: he bemoaned the fact that the saga gobbles up so much TV time at the expense of the roster. Comparing the Trial of Roman Reigns to 'The Young & The Restless', he was disgruntled when the segment went over by 20 minutes. His subsequent match with Austin Theory was rushed into nothing as a result.

He loves a scrap, and a stiff one, and there are plenty of AEW talents he could indulge that with when his WWE deal - per Fightful - expires next year.

Sheamus Vs. Rush could be unbelievable.
