15 Things We Learned From Sheamus On Talk Is Jericho

2. 18 Seconds With Daniel Bryan

Jericho says he wants to know when he and Daniel Bryan found out that their WrestleMania 28 match was going to be an 18-second squash, and he replies that they knew a few days before. He talks about how their US title match from Mania 27 was also changed not long before the show into a lumberjack match on the pre-show which would turn into a battle royal, a revelation that devastated both men while still trying to make the most of it. Sheamus says he knew the backlash was going to be huge for the 18-second match and says that that was the moment when the tide started to shift against him, crediting Bryan for embracing it and running with the momentum from it and now he has the chance to do the same. Jericho says his match with CM Punk from the same card was originally planned to end in a DQ after 8 minutes, and the only thing that changed Vince's mind was the fact that the Bryan/Sheamus match was already going to be a short bout.
