WWE Announces Sheamus Suffers Cracked Rib at Survivor Series WarGames

Sheamus’ grueling triple-threat match at WWE Survivor Series: WarGames 2024 left him battered, bruised, and with a serious injury.

During the December 2 episode of RAW, WWE announced that the Celtic Warrior sustained a cracked rib following his hard-hitting bout against Intercontinental Champion Bron Breakker and Ludwig Kaiser.

The announcement sheds new light on the toll the match took on Sheamus, who fought valiantly in his quest to claim the one singles championship missing from his Grand Slam résumé. From steel-shattering shots to bone-rattling Brogue Kicks, Sheamus endured an incredible amount of punishment during the chaotic showdown, including a brutal shillelagh strike to his back by Kaiser.

Despite leaving everything in the ring, Sheamus fell short after Breakker capitalized on Kaiser’s interference, delivering a devastating spear to retain his Intercontinental Championship. The loss marked another heartbreaking chapter in Sheamus’ pursuit of the title, but his display of heart and resilience earned universal praise.

Posting a photo of his scarred back on social media with the caption “Survivor,” Sheamus gave fans a glimpse into the physical price he pays to live up to his reputation for delivering “banger after banger.” Now, with a cracked rib added to his list of war wounds, the Celtic Warrior is down but far from out.

Sheamus has been on a relentless quest to capture the Intercontinental Championship, and this setback is unlikely to derail his determination. Known for his unbreakable spirit, he’s sure to come back stronger, ready to take another swing at the gold he craves.
