Remember when the Bar wore Liverpool kits in Manchester?

#3 Sheamus (Liverpool)

Finn Balor was not the only Irish WWE Superstar who went to Madrid to support his club in last year's UEFA Champions League Final. Sheamus was also at the Wanda Metropolitano, along with Cesaro, as Liverpool defeated Tottenham to win their sixth European Cup.

The Celtic Warrior is an avid supporter of the Reds since his childhood, a time when they were winning trophies left, right and center. Those glory days seem to have returned to Anfield, with Liverpool becoming English Premier League champions for the first time this year. Sheamus' love for the Reds even made its way onto WWE programming.

On a November 2017 episode of RAW in Manchester, Sheamus and Cesaro entered their RAW Tag Team Championship match with Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose, in full Liverpool kits.

It was a great heel move and what was even greater was the fact that The Bar won the title that night. Not the first time, nor the last time, that Liverpool got the upper hand much to the dismay of fans from Manchester.

Anyway, Zack Gibson of the Grizzled Young Veterans is also a massive Red currently in WWE. He is a Scouser, born and bred. The two of them will be enjoying Liverpool's current success, as they are set to lift the English Premier League trophy in front of the Kop tomorrow. The only thing left is a custom WWE Championship belt, as the company does for any sports team that becomes champions.
