5 opponents for Sheamus when he returns to action on WWE SmackDown

#4 Mustafa Ali

The heart of SmackDown could find himself in trouble with the return of Sheamus

Moving on, Mustafa Ali is another man who is similar to Shorty G right now. Ali has played a great babyface character since his move to the main roster and remains a crowd favorite even after suffering several losses.

He’s still seen as a prospect for the company, and they can build him even further by giving him some lengthy feuds against top Superstars, rather than just giving him one-off matches against regular competitors.

With that in mind, Sheamus could use his new character to great effect by returning and taking down the high flying Superstar. Ali is a former 205 Live competitor, so we could watch Sheamus try to send him back to the Cruiserweight division rather than competing in the big leagues.

Sheamus has vowed to restore order on SmackDown, and by that, he could mean he isn’t impressed with the new faces that have entered the Blue brand during his absence.

A feud between Ali and Sheamus would be interesting as they have completely different fighting styles and could lock horns on several occasions, trading victories before Sheamus comes out on top.
