10 Problems With Sheamus As WWE World Heavyweight Champion

4. He Lost To The NXT Champion During The European Tour

When WWE went on their annual autumn tour of the UK earlier this month, they touched down in Ireland and decided to pit two Irish stars against each other in a feature match. It was MITB winner Sheamus against the NXT Champion Finn Bálor.

Bálor would go on to defeat Sheamus after a competitive match. The issue with this is that those fans in that arena who have the WWE Network saw The Celtic Warrior losing to the developmental champion, a guy who isn't even on WWE's main roster, and now are supposed to take him seriously as the top heel in the company, the man to beat.

There€™s such little continuity to the booking in WWE at the moment that we€™re now in a situation where the man who headlines the next couple of pay per-views as the top heel was losing to NXT stars just a few weeks ago. This is just one of the many problems with Sheamus as WWE Champion.
