Sheamus Explains How SmackDown Is Different From RAW

Former WWE Champion Sheamus has given some insight into the differences between the top two shows that the WWE presents each and every week.

Sheamus spoke with CantonRep.com while promoting Saturday’s WWE live event in Canton, Ohio where he talked about various topics including going to SmackDown from RAW this year.

The WWE star brought up the fact that it’s relaxed on SmackDown side of things as it’s not as pressurized, and it’s also a shorter show, which sets up limited spots, and they have to rotate the stories more. On the flip side, RAW is a three-hour show that sometimes feels a little stretched, but with a two-hour show, he doesn’t think there’s any danger of anyone getting over-exposed here.

“We really haven’t got started here yet. We’re just waiting to get that opportunity to really kick things off.”

Sheamus talked about teaming with Cesaro and how he handled being in new waters in his career. The former WWE champ noted that they are brothers now and have a great bond that’s developed over the last couple years. He brought up that they’ve been successful together as a team or individually.

“There’s nobody that can touch us in the ring. We argue we fight and have our differences, but we get on. That’s just like brothers. We look at it as a team, and we take care of things as a team. It’s always what’s best for the team and The Bar. We’re the greatest, and we’re not out there trying to steal each other’s spotlight, we’re out there to make each other look good. That’s really all that matters.”
