Sheamus won the WWE US Championship at WrestleMania 37

#2. A feud between Jeff Hardy and Sheamus should be one that fans would love

Jeff Hardy vs. Sheamus could be another feud WWE could revisit from here onwards

Sheamus and Jeff Hardy have a lengthy history with each other. The two men feuded against one another on SmackDown during the 2020 pandemic era and have also faced off on Monday Night RAW on multiple occasions.

With Jeff Hardy missing this year's WrestleMania 37, WWE could bring back The Charismatic Enigma for another feud against Sheamus. For the majority, both Sheamus and Hardy have put on some excellent bouts against one another and a feud over the WWE United States Championship could also lead to a few more exciting matches.

A former United States Champion himself, Hardy could aim to regain the title from a resilient Sheamus, who has been on a dominant run over the past few months. Having missed out on The Grandest Stage of Them All, WWE could aim for a Jeff Hardy redemption story by engaging him in a feud against The Celtic Warrior.
