Celtic Warrior shares bloody injury update during WWE absence
Summary
– Sheamus suffered a nasty head wound during a gym accident while away from WWE
– The former WWE Champion shared photos showing blood and a deep gash on his head
– The setback comes as Sheamus continues rehabbing from shoulder surgery and working toward a return
Sheamus is still pushing toward a WWE return, but his latest update showed an unexpected setback during training.
The Celtic Warrior shared photos on Instagram after suffering a head injury during a gym session. The images showed Sheamus holding a towel to his head while blood ran down his face and arm.
Another photo showed the towel pulled away, revealing a deep cut on his head. Sheamus kept the caption brief, calling it a gym fail while adding emojis to show the rough nature of the accident.
The injury occurred while Sheamus was recovering from shoulder surgery. He previously said the shoulder issue started bothering him around his match with Rusev at Clash in Paris.
Sheamus tried to work through the injury for several months, but the problem eventually became too serious to ignore. He underwent surgery on December 30 and has been rehabbing since then.
The former WWE Champion has made it clear that he is eager to return to the ring. He said he has been dealing with cabin fever while waiting to get back to work.
Sheamus was recently seen training at the WWE Performance Center with several NXT talents. That appearance gave fans hope that his comeback may be getting closer.
This gym accident looked painful, but it does not appear to have changed Sheamus’ mindset. He remains focused on getting healthy and returning to WWE action.
For now, fans will hope the Celtic Warrior avoids any further setbacks as he continues his recovery.
