16 Things You Probably Missed From WWE SmackDown (Feb 19)

6. A Nasty Landing For Sheamus

We'd like to say both Sheamus and Tommaso Ciampa were selling like champs during their tag match on SmackDown, we really would. We can't. That wasn't selling at all, it was genuine pain. Sheamus landed full-force on Ciampa's left knee during a slightly-botched Sunset Powerbomb spot out of the corner.

Ouch.

Immediately, both rolled around in agony. The commentators did mention what happened, but they didn't spend much time on it. No wonder. It wasn't supposed to happen; it'd be pretty foolish for any worker to let a 275lb dude land flush on their leg from the middle turnbuckle.
