Sheamus recently confessed that he thought his WWE career would've come to an abrupt end last year due to concussions and other issues.

The former World Champion was absent from WWE television after WrestleMania 35. He took a sabbatical and returned in January 2020.

Speaking to ComicBook, Sheamus revealed physical therapy, a different diet, and dynamic movements helped him recover faster.

"Yeah, I did mate (thoughts on his career ending). I did. I'm not going to lie. I had a really, really bad concussion, and I had some other issues going on. But, I went through the physical therapy. I got myself in great shape. I went to the dietitian Jerry Ward so I could get fast and carry the ice out. I was determined to get myself in the best shape possible," said Sheamus.

However, Sheamus stated that the last year-and-a-half was a brilliant time for him in the ring. He is able to work with a wide variety of WWE talents now, especially newbies.

What helped Sheamus recover from his health issues?

Sheamus disclosed that "dynamic stretching" is the secret to his revival. His stretches are well-known in the locker room as well because he keeps practicing "all these mad stretches and rolling around."

"I've never felt better. I feel better than ten years ago when I debuted, just because I know a lot more about my body. I do a lot more dynamic stretching," said Sheamus.

The WWE Superstar also declared that he has not faced any issues since his sabbatical last year.

Sheamus won the United States title from Riddle at WrestleMania 37 but eventually lost it to Damian Priest last month at SummerSlam. After almost losing his career, Sheamus has made quite the recovery, all in the span of two years!
