We saw vignettes for The Charismatic Enigma's return throughout previous episodes, and only one man, Sheamus, has objected to the whole thing so far.

The Celtic Warrior was upset over the fact that Michael Cole kept switching the conversation back to Jeff Hardy's vignettes instead of focusing on Sheamus and his in-ring dominance. This week, Hardy returned and talked to Renee Young about his last chance at redemption in WWE.

Things escalated when Sheamus arrived and started brawling with Hardy right away. You could see how both men were itching for a program like this by the intensity of their brawl last night.

Not only did Jeff Hardy execute his move set in rapid motion, but Sheamus got right back up after the returning Superstar planted his finisher on The Celtic Warrior. Undoubtedly, Sheamus vs. Jeff Hardy should be a good WWE program for both parties involved right now.
