Sheamus has a specific WrestleMania dream: bringing the biggest show in wrestling to his home country.
Speaking on OTB Football, the Celtic Warrior made his pitch for WWE to hold WrestleMania at Croke Park in Dublin, Ireland, the 82,000-capacity venue that has hosted NFL games, concerts, rugby, and Gaelic football but never a professional wrestling event.
“My dream is to have WrestleMania at Croke (Park) and to perform there. That would be top of my bucket list. We have enough Irish players in WWE where it would make sense. We have had PLEs in Puerto Rico, France, Wales, Scotland, but as outdoor arenas go, I guarantee they’ll fill Croke Park. Not just for the event itself, but a reason for fans to come to that location. It’s a dream vacation. Come to Dublin, have a crack, drink a Guinness. There are so many things, and then come to an absolute banger of a PLE at Croke Park. You would fill that place ten times over,” Sheamus said.
Sheamus has been sidelined since undergoing shoulder surgery on December 30 and is currently rehabbing toward a return to the ring. His last match was on the November 17 episode of Raw. We wish him a speedy recovery.
