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

#3 Cesaro

No one knows Sheamus as well as Cesaro

Let's not forget about the man who had the biggest impact on his career this decade and helped him develop into one of the finest tag team wrestlers in the business. Cesaro and Sheamus had a rocking feud during the second half of 2016, and even though the feud lasted for several months, it never got boring.

Keeping that in mind, Sheamus may return to hunt down his former archrival and best friend Cesaro. The two men managed to win five Tag Team Championships together, and that number will help the company construct a great new feud around them.

Currently, Cesaro doesn’t have much to do on SmackDown and is generously used in multi-men matches to take the pinfall. If Sheamus returns and reignites a feud with his former partner, we could see one of the two men turn face, with Cesaro finding a new direction.

Cesaro is in dire need of something that can make him a top Superstar in the company again, and he could work well with Sheamus, as both men have excellent chemistry, with fans already aware of the connection they have.
