Sheamus seeks revenge on Ludwig Kaiser!

The rivalry between Sheamus and Ludwig Kaiser started when the latter attacked Bron Breakker and Sheamus during their match for the Intercontinental title. Bron Breakker was defending his title against Ludwig Kaiser when Sheamus attacked Ludwig Kaiser to get his revenge.

Bron Breakker, frustrated by his match ending in disqualification twice, entered the brawl between Sheamus and Ludwig Kaiser.

A Triple threat match for the Intercontinental Championship was announced between Bron Breakker, Sheamus, and Ludwig Kaiser at the 2024 Survivor Series: WarGames. An experienced Sheamus was dominating the match. He was about to win the Intercontinental title when Ludwig Kaiser pulled the referee out of the ring and launched a shillelagh attack on Sheamus.

Sheamus could perform the brogue kick because Shillelagh’s attack injured his ribs badly. Bron delivered a spear to Ludwig and retained his title.

Sheamus returned to WWE and punished Ludwig Kaiser for the brutal attack intensifying their rivalry more. These two superstars are now scheduled to face each other on Monday Night Raw.

Who ya got when @WWESheamus faces @wwe_kaiser tomorrow night on #RawOnNetflix?

Damian Priest vs. Finn Balor in a Street Fight Match

Former Judgment Day brothers turned enemies when Finn Balor betrayed Damian Priest and it cost the latter his WWE Heavyweight Championship. These two have been at each other’s throats ever since. Finn’s interruption cost Damian Priest again when he was about to win the match against Gunther to reclaim his Heavyweight championship.

Finn Balor and Damian Priest have been brawling with each other ever since but Judgment Day’s number game always proved to be too much for Damian. Damian Priest recently retaliated by costing Finn Balor and JD McDonagh their tag team titles intensifying the feud. Finn and JD McDonnagh challenged War Raiders for a three-man tag team match but the match was won by Damian Priest and War Raider.

Damian Priest will now face Finn Balor in a Street Fight match.

We've got ourselves a STREET FIGHT tomorrow night on #RawOnNetflix!
