Sheamus Deletes Controversial Tweet Comparing Gunther to Hitler

Sheamus returned to the ring on RAW last month and is gearing up for a significant match against Gunther on RAW next week. However, it seems he definitely raised some eyebrows by hinting at Gunther being like Hitler in a tweet that has since been deleted

During the Backlash Premium Live Event, WWE officially revealed the first round brackets for the King and Queen of The Ring tournaments, which will take place on Monday Night RAW next week.

Sheamus is set to square off against his biggest rival Gunther. In a now-deleted tweet, Sheamus alluded to Gunther and Hitler being similar, as he pointed out how they are from Austria with a funny haircut, has a thing for military style coats, proclaims superiority over others, hangs out with Germans and betrays his Italian ally. The German would be Ludwig Kaiser and Italian would be Giovanni Vinci, whom Imperium kicked out recently.

‘‘Hmmm…an Austrian with a funny haircut, has a thing for military style coats, proclaims superiority over others, hangs out with Germans and betrays his Italian ally.”

Sheamus also hinted at having Giovanni Vinci in his corner on RAW. We will have to wait and see whether Giovanni Vinci will actually be in The Celtic Warrior’s corner on RAW next week.
