Legendary former WWE Champion possibly injured at Survivor Series; Michael Cole concerned after he was "busted open"

A former WWE champion appeared hurt during his Survivor Series bout. Even Michael Cole seemed concerned after he was busted open.

Sheamus has been one of the most decorated WWE stars in history. However, he has yet to win the Intercontinental Championship. Winning this title will finally make him a Grand Slam Champion.

On the November 11 episode of RAW, The Celtic Warrior had his chance when he faced current champion Bron Breakker. However, Ludwig Kaiser interfered in the contest and attacked both of them causing a DQ. This resulted in Adam Pearce announcing a Triple Threat match for the Intercontinental Championship at Survivor Series: WarGames.

Sheamus gave it his best to become champion and even came close when he hit Breakker with the Brogue kick. However, Ludwig pulled the referee out of the ring before he could count to three. The Celtic Warrior's efforts were visible as he was busted open during the match and even looked hurt towards the end.

Even Michael Cole expressed concern over the former WWE Champion's well-being. However, his fighting spirit wasn't enough as Breakker was able to retain the title.

It will be interesting to see whether Sheamus will get another title shot after tonight's loss.
