3 Reasons why Sheamus could be WWE’s greatest European Superstar of the 21st century

#2 Defeated legends

The Celtic Warrior defeated John Cena at TLC 2009

Sheamus made an emphatic debut in 2009 and fans were truly impressed with the Celtic Warrior’s dominant aura. His first World title shot came against John Cena in the same year and it won't be wrong to say that the Irishman was an underdog heading into this bout. But his victory over Cena embarked on his journey in the main event picture and rest, as they say, is history.

From Big Show to Randy Orton, Sheamus holds a win over some of the all-time greats and achievements like that don't come easy. Sheamus' most notable feuds came against the likes of Triple H, John Cena, and Randy Orton- three legends who've all tasted defeat at the hands of the Celtic Warrior.

From a villainous heel to a fan-favorite, Sheamus' journey with the company has been a rollercoaster ride, one which has produced one too many memorable moments.
