Sheamus has trained with some of the toughest wrestlers in WWE, but he says the women were the ones who consistently kicked his ass in the gym.
During his conversation with Adam’s Apple, the former WWE Champion was asked about the craziest workout routines he had ever experienced. Sheamus initially singled out former WWE star Xia Li, who now competes for TNA, before making it clear she was far from the only woman who put him through hell.
“Xia Li—she’s in TNA now, but she was on the main roster for a while.”
Sheamus then rattled off several of WWE’s biggest female stars, including Becky Lynch, Sol Ruca, Charlotte Flair, Rhea Ripley and Bayley. According to him, the women consistently trained harder than anyone else he encountered.
“All the girls kicked my ass. The girls work the hardest—Becky, Sol Ruca, Charlotte, Rhea as well, Bayley. The girls kick ass. They’re the hardest in the gym.”
That is serious praise coming from Sheamus, whose entire WWE career was built around brutal matches, heavy lifting and one of the most punishing fighting styles on the roster. He has shared the ring with some of WWE’s hardest hitters, but when it comes to training, he says the women set the standard.
