Sheamus Admits He Thought His Career Was Over Due To Injury

WWE Raw star Sheamus has admitted that he thought his career may have been over due to a concussion suffered in 2019.

After WrestleMania 35 in April 2019, Sheamus was off WWE TV until January 2020, and he’s now opened up about what happened during that period of time.

Speaking with ComicBook about whether he thought that was the end of his career, he said:

“Yeah, I did mate. I did. I’m not going to lie. I had a really, really bad concussion, and I had some other issues going on. But, I went through the physical therapy. I got myself in great shape. I went to the dietitian Jerry Ward so I could get fast and carry the ice out. I was determined to get myself in the best shape possible. Not just from a cardio perspective, but also physical and to also fix what’s going on with me. I worked really, really hard to get back in the ring. I’ve never felt better. I feel better than 10 years ago when I debuted, just because I know a lot more about my body. I do a lot more dynamic stretching. Ask any of the guys in the locker room. I’m there doing all these mad stretches and rolling around. All these dynamic movements and stuff. Just warming myself up and it’s definitely… Since I’ve been back, no problems whatsoever. I literally feel better than I did when I debuted though, which is crazy.”

It’s a good thing he’s recovered because Sheamus has been one of WWE’s standouts this past year and has had plenty of great matches since his return.

In fact, during the same interview, Sheamus said he believes he’s currently on the best run of his WWE career, which you can read about at this link.
