Here's another, 'did anyone else notice' thingy.

Sheamus seemed to dial up the Conor McGregor vibes during his backstage promo after attacking Lashley. He's obviously Irish (not telling anyone anything new there!), but the way he said words like "tonight", for example, just seemed different than the normal way Sheamus pronounces them.

Was this a concerted effort to make Sheamus more like McGregor? Perhaps. His accent was even thicker than it usually is.
