Former United States Champion Sheamus has been out of action for the past few weeks, owing to an injury. It appears that he’s currently cleared by the WWE doctors and hence the comeback for the 2010 King of the Ring winner is happening, later this week. He’ll be a part of the WWE’s tour over the pond out of the United States.
According to PWInsider, Sheamus will return to in-ring action during this week’s European tour and hence this will end a short hiatus for him. The former WWE Champion had been out of action since September due to a nose injury. The original injury took place in May this year when he took a stiff shot from Humberto Carrillo which left his nose in a busted state.
Later in September, Sheamus re-aggravated the injury during a match with Jeff Hardy on the September 20 episode of Monday Night RAW. At that point, he was in the middle of a feud against Damian Priest and Hardy on Raw over the United States Title. He lost the US title to Priest back at Summerslam. Afterward, he was drafted to Friday Night Smackdown during this year’s draft.
