The Small Screen: WWE Superstar Appears On NCIS: Los Angeles

It can work. Wrestlers have tried their hand at acting for a very long time now with various levels of success. Some wrestlers are successful and have quite the run in the acting world. At the same time, there are wrestlers who only dabble here and there in some special moments. WWE stars still do it to this day and now one of the bigger names has done it again.

Sheamus is currently set to challenge Gunther for the Intercontinental Title at WrestleMania 39 in a triple threat match also involving Drew McIntyre.

Sheamus has had quite the WWE career. Check out some of his better moments:

Opinion: This is the kind of thing that works out well for some wrestlers but you never know what you are going to see. Sheamus has a very unique look and is someone who can appear intimidating whenever he is on screen. I can get why he would be able to be cast as a heavy or intimidating guy and that seems to be what he has done for most of his acting career. Good for him for getting a spot like this though, as it is fairly high profile.
