#3 Sheamus enters the Intercontinental Championship picture
Sheamus was recently in conversation with Gary Cassidy of Sportskeeda and you can check out what he had to say to him, in the video that's been linked here. Sheamus has been portrayed as a bulletproof star ever since he's been brought back to SmackDown, and he's defeated superstars like Shorty G and Apollo Crews easily.
One wonders if he will get into a Championship feud with WWE Intercontinental Champion Braun Strowman anytime soon because Sheamus has been very public about wanting to win the title. The two men are believable opponents for one another and could have quite the clash at WrestleMania too.
Even though Cesaro probably gets a lot more screen time than Sheamus does these days, it is clear as day who the bigger star is among the two men on SmackDown right now. Sheamus has been protected and made to look like a force of nature.
One wonders if the reason why he's been protected is to take Strowman on in a believable manner. Imagine the two men facing off this week.
