Je’Von Evans Gets Massive Endorsement from Sheamus After WWE NXT Match

Je’Von Evans continues to turn heads in WWE, and he just got the kind of praise most rookies can only dream of—straight from Sheamus himself.

Following their match at an NXT live event in St. Paul, the Celtic Warrior took a mic and made it clear that Evans isn’t just another high-flier—he’s someone with grit, talent, and a future worth watching. Even after defeating Evans in the ring, Sheamus had nothing but respect for the young star.

“Not only are you a high flier with so much gifted ability, you’re also a tough bastard, fella. Tonight you earned my respect and everyone else’s respect in this building in St. Paul. The future is in safe hands, lads. Now do us all a favor and kick ass.”

That kind of post-match praise from a former WWE Champion isn’t something that happens every night. But for Evans, it’s just another chapter in what’s quickly becoming a breakout year. Fans will remember his standout showing against Sami Zayn earlier this year during a U.S. Open Challenge—another moment that got people talking.

Sheamus’ comments are a major stamp of approval, especially coming from a guy who’s made a career off beating people up and earning everything the hard way. And if he’s telling the world that Je’Von Evans is the future, it’s worth paying attention.

With veterans like Sheamus showing him love and the crowd reacting to every move, Evans is climbing fast—and WWE might be looking at one of its next big stars in the making.
