WWE News: Sheamus on favoring his new look, the PG era, Goldberg in WWE 2K17

Sheamus is a former WWE World Heavyweight Champion

WWE Superstar Sheamus recently spoke to The Whig to help promote the upcoming WWE 2K17 video game. Sheamus discussed his new look in which he sports a new mohawk, and also claims that he likes his new style better than his original:

"I like this look now, man. I think it's really cool,” he said, adding that the current look is far less maintenance than the last look, which saw his beard beaded. “The beads are something that I tried and they worked. I like the beard now … Every time I got home, I had to get the hair cut -- my hair grows pretty quick -- and then I had to go to this African braiding place, where she used to twist the skin off me face, like Hellraiser, the movie. It would be like hooks going into me face, I'm pulling them off.”

Sheamus then began to sing the praises of those who put together the games at 2K, and also discussed the WWE’s decision to bring back former WWE and WCW star Goldberg back for the game as well:

“Those guys in 2K, they work tirelessly with research and development, get the fans' feedback, and everything they do is to make it better and better and better. They're like perfectionists, they don't want to have anything or any holes in anything they do. Bringing Goldberg back is great,” he said. “We've seen some great ones, Ultimate Warrior was one of my favourites. I loved him as a kid. Sting. Now having Goldberg in there is really cool, especially, I'm sure you watched Goldberg as a kid. He'd just kill everybody. He still looks great! He looks the same! Like a million dollars."

‘The Celtic Warrior’ then discussed his thoughts on the PG era being a good thing, as it has brought in many new fans to the sport:

“I think that when we initially went to PG, and I was coming in at the tail end of the not-PG, whatever you want to call it -- it was past the Attitude Era, the in-between stage -- there were a lot of people hemming and hawing about this, but ultimately it's brought in so many new fans."

Sheamus is currently locked in a best of 7 series with Cesaro which he leads 1-0. The next match of the series will probably be held on Raw this Monday.
