As noted, tonight’s WWE SmackDown will feature Sheamus returning to the ring against WWE Intercontinental Champion Daniel Bryan in a non-title match.
According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Sheamus is accused of being reckless in the match and not protecting Bryan enough. Some who saw the match live noted that Sheamus worked too reckless in some spots.
Bryan ended up busted open and needed around 7 stitches to close a cut on his forehead but the cut may have came from Barrett. Apparently there is at least some blood shown on tonight’s broadcast.
