Video: Sheamus Talks “Stupid” Chants, Why He Changed His Look, Being a Heel, WWE 2K16, More

Sheamus

– As seen above, Brian Fritz of Between The Ropes spoke with Sheamus at the WWE 2K16 media event in New York City this weekend. Below are some highlights:

* Sheamus doesn’t seem too interested in talking about video games at first but says 2K works their arse off and it’s unreal how the game keeps getting better. He says WWE 2K16 is like watching TV without the commercial breaks. He says they keep pushing the envelope when it comes to new features.

* Fritz asks what influence Steve Austin had on his career and he says The Attitude Era was exciting, naming Austin, The Rock, The Undertaker, Mick Foley. Sheamus says the history side of what they do is very important.

* Regarding his updated look, he says you get tired of certain things and want change. He felt like his look was stale and like he was going in circles. He needed to do something drastic so he came back with a new look and attitude. He says he’s having a lot of fun beating people up and being the bad guy. He’s here to entertain and everyone is entertained when they see The Celtic Warrior.

* He hopes the “you look stupid” chants are in WWE 2K16 and he loves those kind of reactions from the crowd. He loves it when the crowd hates him that much. He says he’s going to continue to do what’s best for his career and calls himself the next WWE World Heavyweight Champion.
