Every Royal Rumble match winner: Where are they now?

#21 Sheamus (2012)

Sheamus is one half of the SD Live tag team champions currently

In the past, Sheamus was pushed as the top wrestler of the company. He has won the WWE Championship multiple times in his career and was also the winner of the Royal Rumble in 2012. But due to bad bookings, the WWE Creative failed to use him as per his potential.

The Celtic Warrior has now formed an alliance with Cesaro and their tag team is known as The Bar. They are the current SmackDown Tag team Champions and will defend their titles at Royal Rumble against the newly formed tag team of The Miz and Shane McMahon.
