Since debuting in WWE in 2009, Sheamus has enjoyed a career most wrestlers can only dream of, including four reigns as World Champion. Now, fans can expect to see much more of the Celtic Warrior in the ring as he has signed a contract extension with WWE.
News of Sheamus’ contract extension was shared by Pat McAfee on the popular broadcaster’s show. McAfee, who recently had Sheamus on an episode of his show from Dublin, Ireland, was excited to see “banger after banger after banger” from the Irish Superstar. According to PWInsider, it’s a five-year contract that will keep him part of the WWE family through late 2029.
Sheamus shared a celebratory reply to the Pat McAfee clip on social media:
WWE’s Re-Signed Superstars
Sheamus is the latest notable name to lock down a new deal with WWE in 2024. In April, Drew McIntyre re-signed with WWE, putting to bed fan speculation that he would be signing with AEW in time for All In: London. McIntyre’s re-signing not only saw the Scottish Warrior get a new contract, but also a sword gifted to him by TKO’s Dwayne Johnson.
More recently, Randy Orton confirmed reports that he has re-signed with WWE with a deal that should keep him around until 2029. While Orton could have seen his previous deal frozen due to his time away due to his back injury, WWE reportedly felt it was fairer to let Orton negotiate a new deal given how much the handling of contracts has changed.
Now, Sheamus has joined his fellow former World Champions in re-signing with WWE. Stay tuned to SEScoops for the latest on Sheamus and his years to come as a WWE Superstar.
