A former WWE Champion will make their return to SmackDown after being written off the show for several weeks with an apparent injury.

The October 21st edition of WWE SmackDown featured a first-time-ever outing between Sheamus and Solo Sikoa, a match won by the latter, albeit with the assistance of Sami Zayn. ‘The Celtic Warrior’ was subsequently left beaten and battered after a steel chair-aided assault from The Bloodline.

Sheamus was said to have been left with a “non-displaced fracture” to his elbow as a result of the attack. However, in reality, the Irish star was written off television to allow him to get married. Several other stars from the company and AEW were photographed following the nuptials and celebrating with the newlyweds.

Now the time for celebrating might be over and the time for brawling recommencing with PWInsider reporting that Sheamus will be back on SmackDown beginning with the show on the 11th of November in Indianapolis, Indiana.

That show will see The Usos defend their Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship against The New Day. Should The Usos win the match then they will go on to surpass The New Day as the longest-reigning tag team champions in company history.

But given their part in the attack on Sheamus, it might be wise if The Usos and the rest of The Bloodline have one eye on the lookout for him and the rest of The Brawling Brutes.
