#8 Sheamus
As someone who has never been the biggest Sheamus fan, it’s strange for me to admit this, but I’ve been calling for The Celtic Warrior and The Deadman to lock up for years. In my mind, it made no sense to do two years of Shawn Michaels matches followed by two years of Triple H, who had already wrestled The Undertaker at WrestleMania in 2001.
During the 2011-2012 time frame where Triple H took up two of those WrestleMania matches, Sheamus wrestled Daniel Bryan in a dark match one year and then in an 18-second match the next.
Top name doesn't want to enter the WWE Hall of Fame. More details HERE.
Mind you, this was also around the time he was still a main event talent who had accomplished many things, so he wasn’t some fresh to the scene jobber working his way up the ranks.
Sacrificing one of those Triple H matches for someone like Sheamus and giving us a full-on Celtic Warrior entrance against the dark wizard Deadman would have been a spectacle that launched Sheamus into the stratosphere.
