Veteran star said to have rejected new contract offer
Summary
– Sheamus is reportedly set to leave WWE after turning down a contract extension
– Fightful Select reported that his current deal is expected to expire soon
– WWE reportedly offered a restructured deal that Sheamus rejected
Sheamus may be nearing the end of his long WWE run.
Fightful Select reported that the 48-year-old veteran recently turned down a contract extension with the company. The report noted that his current deal is believed to expire soon, though the exact date has not been confirmed.
WWE had reportedly approached Sheamus about a restructured contract before the latest update. He is said to have quickly rejected that offer.
Sheamus first signed with WWE in late 2006 and went on to build one of the most decorated careers of his era. He became a three-time WWE Champion, a one-time World Heavyweight Champion, a three-time United States Champion, and a five-time Tag Team Champion.
His résumé also includes winning King of the Ring in 2010, the Royal Rumble in 2012, and Money in the Bank in 2015.
The report adds that Sheamus is now using the name S. Farrelly on social media. That change has only drawn more attention to the possibility of him leaving WWE.
If this is the end of his WWE run, Sheamus leaves behind nearly two decades of major matches, championship moments, and a reputation as one of the toughest performers of his generation.
