• Sheamus Reveals What Vince McMahon Said To Him That Made Him Lose Weight
Former WWE Champion Sheamus has been on a hiatus from WWE and lost 30 lbs during this time.
During a recent appearance on E&C’s Pod Of Awesomeness podcast, Sheamus revealed what Vince McMahon said to him that made him lose weight:
“I came back from holiday in Ireland and me and Cesaro were walking by Vince. Vince goes, ‘Hey Sheamus! Enjoyed the holidays, huh?’ and he was looking at me and my gut. I said, ‘That’s it, that’s it, I need to do something about it.’ That was the change in gear. Cesaro knew it – Cesaro knew right away when that comment was made.”
