On tonight's edition of WWE SmackDown on Fox, Sheamus was in action against debuting Superstar Cal Bloom. He has been active on NXT for the past one year or so, and it should be noted that he is the son of a former WWE Superstar.

Cal is the son of a retired professional wrestler named Wayne Bloom. Cal's father wrestled for several companies including WWE, AWA, and WCW. His short-lived stint in WWE in the early 90s saw him and Mike Enos don the persona of Beverly Brothers. Their gimmick was of two rich, spoiled brats, sporting flashy purple tights and bleach-blonde hairstyles.
The duo feuded with the likes of Legion of Doom, The Natural Disasters, and The Bushwhackers. As the end of their WWE stint approached, they turned into enhancement talent. Bloom was active on the independent scene for around 5 years following his WWE release.
Cal Bloom, 25-years-old, was signed to a contract back in March 2019. Before trying his hand at pro-wrestling, Bloom played football and was a mainstay in the UCF Knights for over 4 years. He played as a tight-end for the University of Central Florida. As of now, Bloom hasn't reacted to his debut on tonight's SmackDown.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
