Sheamus Heaps Praise On ‘Incredible’ WWE NXT Star

WWE’s Sheamus has heaped praise on an ‘incredible’ WWE NXT star following their match at a recent live event.

A number of WWE main roster stars were recently announced for a series of NXT live events this week, which includes Sheamus.

Sheamus faced off against Je’von Evans on Thursday’s show, with him then facing Trick Williams on Friday and Saturday’s events.

Speaking on Busted Open Radio, Sheamus commented on his match with Je’von, praising him as ‘incredible’.

He said:

“I got to work, I wrestled Je’von on Thursday. The kid’s awesome man, he’s awesome.

“He did great, I tested him for sure. I brought it to him and he brought it back. He was pretty physical, he’s put a bit of meat on as well since I first seen him.

“The thing about Je’von is he’s been a wrestling fan his whole life, he told me after we had the match, he said ‘this has been a dream for me, you don’t understand, you were the first thing I saw when you were 5 years old, you were wrestling’. I was like you’re making me feel old, what was it? ‘When Triple H Pedigreed you through a table’.

“But he’s great, not only can he do athletic things, he looks like he’s bouncing on the moon, he’s got anti gravity boots on. He took a beating and gave it back, and you can see he’s just so excited to be there. He’s 21 years old, incredible.

“He’s put some muscle on, bulked up a bit, and it hasn’t effected his athleticism or the stuff he does. Also he’s always smiling, he’s just so happy to be there. He’s got a match with Gunther on Monday, and I’m excited for him.”
