Get the pints in, because Sheamus is back.

WWE aired a quick vignette for the Irishman's return on Monday's Raw after 'Mania. It didn't give much away, but it does look like Sheamus will also play some part in the upcoming Draft. There isn't much left for the guy to achieve on SmackDown unless he's finding a new partner and warring with old stablemate Pete Dunne.

That's defo an option the writers should explore someday (same with Sheamus vs. Dunne in a singles; that'd be a banger), but he wouldn't be out of place on Raw either. In fact, here's a quick suggestion: Spring a surprise by putting Sheamus on NXT for a while, and see what he can do there.

That wouldn't damage his aura, and could actually lead to some excellent bouts vs. fledgling stars on the developmental brand. Failing that, bring him to Raw and put him against Sami Zayn for the Intercontinental Title. Sheamus is one of the most versatile workers WWE has, so he'll thrive regardless.
