Whether helping Cesaro flatten an entire den of drunken idiots or needling a recently rehabilitated Jeff Hardy over his prior vices, Sheamus has proven himself to be fairly comfortable in a pub setting.

Much like the Celtic Warrior himself, this forum could split one of two directions depending on the guest of honor. In one scenario, we could end up with a candid sit-down discussion over a pint with Sheamus donning his best formal vest. In another, it could be the prelude to an ass-kicking akin to the bar fight we saw with Jeff Hardy over the summer. Or, as is the most likely of outcomes, it might start with the former and end with the latter.

Whether out of necessity or out of experimentation, WWE's recent willingness to go all out on cinematic matches proves that their talk shows and interview segments could be doing better. A few elaborate set designs and immersive atmospheres can work wonders for a character.
