The July 15 episode of WWE Raw saw Sheamus on the receiving end of an attack from his former teammate Pete Dunne.

With Sheamus facing Bronson Reed, the Celtic Warrior would be victorious, celebrating the moment until Pete Dunne made his presence felt.

Footage from the encounter can be seen below this news story, with Dunne initially topping Reed attacking his former Brawling Brutes teammate.

Dunne would return to the ring to strike down Sheamus, leading to chants of “you suck” from the fans in attendance.

In a WWE Digital Exclusive that can be seen below, we heard from Sheamus after the match where he addressed the issues with Dunne, saying:

“Jackie, I don’t get it. Why has Pete Dunne got so much beef with me, huh? All I’ve ever done is try to help that lad out and lift him up.

“He’s got so much beef. For a vegan lad, he’s got more beef than anyone else and I don’t get it.

“I don’t get why everyone’s got beef with me. I don’t get it. Maybe you should ask Pete Dunne what his problem is because I don’t know.”

This marks the second time that Dunne and Sheamus have been at odds, with June 8’s WWE Raw seeing the former Butch backing away from a reunion.

Dunne is currently without his New Catch Republic tag team partner with Tyler Bate currently sidelined through injury.

Over in WWE NXT, Pete Dunne recently had words for Ridge Holland over his decision to join Chase U.
