WWE Superstar Sheamus loves to play THQ’s WWE 13, when he’s not kicking butt inside the real wrestling ring. The former WWE Heavyweight Champion, hailing from Dublin, Ireland, has attracted a clan of fans from around the globe. The Celtic Warrior talks about his own video game habits in this exclusive interview.
Stone Cold on the Collector’s Edition. Who do you think deserves it more than him?
I don’t think anyone deserves it more than him. I think that what he’s done for this business is tremendous. He reinvented everything and pushed the boundaries. He helped put WWE back on top over WCW. He’s a legend, and will always be seen as that. It’s cool to get to see him, as well. I got to meet him and see him on RAW every so often, too. He’s exactly the same person as you see on television; that’s who he is. He is Stone Cold Steve Austin.
What are your thoughts on your in-game avatar?
I remember last year The Miz had a higher rating than I had in terms of strength and weaknesses. I wasn’t too happy with THQ and let them know.
You can always do a create-a-wrestler for yourself.
No, not at all. I’m gonna talk to THQ, I’m gonna put things right, and that’s gonna be it. End of story.
