Sheamus

“I just couldn't believe I'd made my debut in WWE. It's what I'd always wanted to do.”

“Every time I get into the ring, my perspective is that the other guy is standing between me and a victory.”

“I would love to face the Million Dollar Man, Ted DiBiase. He is one of my favorites of all time.”

“Who wouldn't want to be involved in a movie?”

“With a gimmick, there isn't much substance. If you play to the crowd too much, it can go bad.”

“'I have always been. I will always be. Come with me.' It's kind of the Celtic vibe. I am saying I will never change; I will always be the same. Follow me. This is what I stand for.”

“I like that I can stand out from the crowd.”

“I eat a huge breakfast every morning. I do a lot of work at the gym, a lot of power-lifting, a lot of cardio, and I study wrestling tapes.”

“Wrestling, for me, was always something I wanted to do, and it, working in IT, was just a way to get financially looked after; I went and wrestled on the side because you don't make any money when you're starting off, and you don't have any name value.”

“I try to enter every match or every event with the same attitude, because to me, they're all as important as each other, and you're only as good as your last fight.”

“The New York crowd is definitely one to voice their opinion. They can be very loud and boisterous.”

“I try not to think small minded.”

“A lot of guys have played college football and were in the NFL, but for me, it made my transition a lot easier, and people say I'm one of the toughest guys in WWE. I have rugby to thank for that.”

“Being the U.S. champion is a big deal for me. Knowing that my ancestors built this country, it's kind of like, the Irish were treated badly in this country for a long time, with a lot of tacky Irish stereotypes, so to me, it's kind of like a bragging right.”

“If you go back to the '80s, I didn't really know much about the characters. I knew what they did in the ring. I knew Hogan went off and spouted lots of crazy promos, and Ultimate Warrior did the same. They really were just characters.”

“Wikipedia's funny. Some of the stuff on there - I go there occasionally - it's unbelievable the amount of stuff that people will write on there.”

“I'm either doing a show or in the gym or studying WWE videos or eating. I have to eat a lot.”

“I just want to go out there and have fun and entertain the crowd!”

“I'd love to become Intercontinental Champion.”

“The record books aren't going to lie. They aren't going to say I sold out. They aren't going to say anything.”
