4-time WWE World Champion clears the air on retirement; addresses when he might leave wrestling

WWE is headed to San Diego for Survivor Series: WarGames, and one major name has cleared the air about retirement. The veteran in question is Sheamus.

Last month, Sheamus returned to television following an intense feud with Rusev, which concluded in France. The Celtic Warrior has endured multiple severe injuries in the past, and with some of his peers entering their final runs or announcing retirements in the coming months or years, fans have been curious about his future.

The three-time WWE Champion and one-time World Heavyweight Champion recently set the record straight about his in-ring retirement plans and when he might consider hanging up his wrestling boots in the Stamford-based promotion.

In an appearance on RAW Recap, the 47-year-old RAW star addressed various topics since his return to the red brand, including John Cena and The Judgment Day. During the discussion, the multi-time World, Tag Team, and United States Champion expressed that he’s not retiring anytime soon, insisting he’s just getting started.

“I think it’s the intensity that’s something that I’ve always leaned into, and that’s really what sets me apart. I feel like that’s why I’m still in the game. You know, people talk about John Cena retiring, and I think he’s like a year older than me, and I feel like I’m just getting started. Last week, I was in there with JD [McDonagh], man, and just ripping it up,” Sheamus said.

Moreover, he revealed that retirement might only be considered if he’s no longer able to give 100% in the ring, regardless of the match or show.

“The day I don’t go out there and give 100% or give it everything that I possibly have every single match—I don’t care if it’s RAW, SmackDown, NXT, or if it’s Main Event that they tape before the show—I won’t go out there and not give everything I have in every single match, and especially with my neck,” Sheamus explained.

### Sheamus Feuds with The Judgment Day on WWE RAW

After concluding his feud with Rusev on the red brand, Sheamus took a hiatus for a few weeks before recently making his return. Since coming back, The Celtic Warrior crossed paths with The Judgment Day and lost a one-on-one match against JD McDonagh.

The rivalry escalated this week when Sheamus came to the aid of AJ Styles and Dragon Lee during their title match. The veteran chased Dirty Dom away, allowing the champions to retain over Finn Balor and JD McDonagh.

Sheamus continues to demonstrate his passion and intensity inside the ring, making it clear that he’s far from considering retirement.

“Winning eight consecutive matches was the best moment” – Patna Pirates’ star reflects on the team’s stellar comeback in Pro Kabaddi 2025 [Exclusive]

**Ayan Lohchab Reflects on Patna Pirates’ Spectacular Comeback in Pro Kabaddi 2025**

Patna Pirates’ star raider Ayan Lohchab recently shared his thoughts on what he considers the best moment of the Pro Kabaddi 2025 season. Despite a challenging start, the Pirates staged an incredible turnaround to qualify for the Playoffs and advance all the way to Eliminator 3. Although they eventually fell short of making the final, losing to the Telugu Titans in the third Eliminator, their journey was nothing short of remarkable.

At one point in the season, the Patna Pirates were at the bottom of the league standings and on the brink of elimination. However, they defied the odds by winning five consecutive games to claw their way into the top eight, finishing seventh after the league stage. The Pirates didn’t stop there—they went on to win their first Play-in match and both Eliminator 1 and Eliminator 2, making it eight consecutive victories.

Reflecting on this historic run, Ayan Lohchab said in an exclusive interaction with Sportskeeda,
*”I think winning eight consecutive matches was the best moment for me. I don’t think any team would have won these many matches in a row. It was a very good comeback and this was the best moment.”*

The Pirates’ season began on a rocky note, winning only three out of their first ten games. Speaking about the turnaround, Ayan credited the team’s coach and management for their unwavering support throughout the campaign.

*”In the beginning, the team and the defense didn’t do well. We didn’t start well. Then our defense started working well, and the raiding team was doing well. So, our team made a comeback. And the coach and management also supported us, so it felt very good,”* he remarked.

He further added,
*”This is the thing—on our comeback and knowing we can bounce back from anywhere. Our management was very good. There was a lot of support from the team. We were winning 8 consecutive matches. We kept on playing. They kept on asking us to play our game. We didn’t have any pressure from the team. They kept on asking us to play our game.”*

Ayan Lohchab was instrumental in the Pirates’ resurgence, finishing the season as the best raider with 316 raid points from 22 matches, including 16 Super 10s.

Regarding the team’s ability to win consecutive high-pressure games, Ayan highlighted their fitness and mental strength. The Pirates faced multiple back-to-back matches during their winning streak, which demanded both physical endurance and resilience.

*”We had a very good camp. I think our team was the most fit. We played a lot of back-to-back matches. We worked well on it, that is why we could play so many games back-to-back, which were also do-or-die matches,”* he explained.

Despite his standout individual performances, Ayan emphasized that the team’s collective effort was the key to their success. He pointed out that personal achievements meant little unless the entire team performed as a cohesive unit.

Once again, he praised the coach and management for maintaining trust in the players even during the losing streak and for allowing them the freedom to play their natural game without pressure.

As the Patna Pirates look ahead, this inspiring comeback stands as a testament to their determination, teamwork, and the vital support system behind the scenes.

Nikki Bella’s recent WWE performance blows away wrestling veteran: “It’s like she never left” (Exclusive)

Former WWE trainer and wrestling star Bill DeMott recently shared his thoughts on Nikki Bella, the WWE Hall of Famer who made a notable return to the company earlier this year.

Nikki Bella has had an illustrious career in WWE. As a multi-time Women’s Champion, she played a significant role in ushering in the Women’s Revolution. Her return to WWE came at this year’s Royal Rumble, and since then, she has made multiple appearances on weekly shows. During this time, she engaged in a memorable feud with Becky Lynch over the Women’s Intercontinental Championship. Currently, Nikki is a member of the RAW roster, continuing to make an impact.

Speaking with veteran wrestling journalist Bill Apter, DeMott expressed pride in having trained stars like The Miz and Nikki Bella. He was glad to see Nikki back on television, noting that “it seemed as though she never left the company.” The veteran trainer highlighted that she was in excellent shape and still capable of mixing it up with some of the best talent on the female roster.

At 58 years old, DeMott reflected on his long association with WWE, stating, “It’s like she never left. It’s amazing. I remember the time she started, and she looked like that. It’s like nothing has changed. She looks great, great energy. I just, I never say this in public ever, but I’m really grateful for the career that WWE afforded me.”

This week on Monday Night RAW, Nikki Bella was in action against Roxanne Perez of the Judgment Day. Perez secured the victory with a Pop Rox off the turnbuckle. Following the match, Perez and Raquel Rodriguez attempted to gang up on Bella, prompting Stephanie Vaquer to rush to the ring and make the save.

How to use Gunsmith Kits in Battlefield Redsec

Gunsmith Kits in Battlefield Redsec: A Complete Guide

The Gunsmith Kits in Battlefield Redsec are an integral part of the weapon upgrade system. These kits allow players to upgrade weapons found on the map, making them an excellent choice for those who don’t have access to drop firearms early in the game. While Redsec lets gamers create their preferred custom loadouts, the on-ground loot—including Gunsmith Kits—provides a convenient way to survive the early stages of a Battle Royale match.

What Are Gunsmith Kits in Battlefield Redsec?

Gunsmith Kits in Battlefield Redsec do not have fixed spawn points and appear in random locations. Typically, you can find these kits inside loot crates scattered across buildings on the map. The orange weapon crates especially have a higher chance of containing a Gunsmith Kit. Because their spawn is random, you’ll need to rely on luck — so make sure to open every crate you come across to increase your chances of securing one.

Once you acquire a Gunsmith Kit, you can either use it immediately if you have a compatible weapon or store it in your inventory. Alternatively, you can also share the kit with your teammates.

How to Upgrade Weapons Using Gunsmith Kits in Battlefield Redsec

To use a Gunsmith Kit, you must have a compatible weapon. Battlefield Redsec offers different types of kits, each designed for specific weapon categories—for example, PDW Kits are compatible with SMGs, while MG Kits are meant for LMGs.

Once you have both the compatible weapon and the corresponding Gunsmith Kit, upgrading is simple:

  • Hold the interact button to open the upgrade menu.
  • Select one of the two available attachments offered by the kit.

Applying an attachment will increase the weapon’s rarity and enhance its performance. The types of attachments you receive depend on your weapon’s current rarity:

  • Common weapons usually yield basic scope attachments.
  • Higher-rarity weapons unlock better attachments that significantly improve your weapon’s capabilities.

If you want to maximize your arsenal’s potential, keep scavenging for more Gunsmith Kits throughout the match.

Final Thoughts

Gunsmith Kits are a valuable resource in Battlefield Redsec, especially for players who might not have access to high-tier weapons early on. By understanding how and where to find these kits and how to apply their attachments effectively, you can gain a substantial advantage in the fast-paced Battle Royale environment.

Stay tuned to Sportskeeda for more Battlefield Redsec guides, updates, and news to help you dominate your matches!

“We will celebrate this win” – Jaipur Pink Panthers’ head coach reacts after win over Haryana Steelers in Pro Kabaddi 2025 Playoffs

**Jaipur Pink Panthers Edge Out Defending Champions Haryana Steelers in Pro Kabaddi 2025 Play-In**

Jaipur Pink Panthers secured a thrilling 30-27 victory over defending champions Haryana Steelers in Play-in 1 of the Pro Kabaddi 2025 season on Saturday, October 25. This win propelled the Panthers into the Eliminator round, where they will face the Patna Pirates.

**Coach Narender Redhu Reflects on the Match**

Jaipur Pink Panthers’ head coach Narender Redhu shared his thoughts on the game during the post-match press conference. He highlighted the team’s strategic preparation, especially in dealing with Haryana’s key defenders Jaideep Dahiya and Rahul Sethpal.

“Our plan was to avoid Jaideep and Rahul, who are their main defenders. And we did that,” said Redhu. “It definitely lifts the confidence when young players perform so well. We will benefit from this game. It was clear that they have a good defense, and if they took the lead, our raiders would have to try more. So we had planned to keep our defense tight. Our defense did well, and we got a lead and we did not let it go.”

This season, the Panthers fielded a relatively new team with several youngsters. However, they not only reached the playoffs but also delivered impressive performances throughout the campaign.

Redhu added, “We will celebrate this win. These are all new guys and playing for the first time but have done so well. We will plan for the next game tomorrow.”

**Next Up: Eliminator 1 Against Patna Pirates**

The Panthers will take on the Patna Pirates in Eliminator 1 on Sunday, October 26, aiming to continue their strong run in the playoffs.

**Haryana Steelers Coach Manpreet Singh Reacts to the Defeat**

The loss to Jaipur Pink Panthers marked the end of the season for the defending champions Haryana Steelers. Reflecting on the defeat, head coach Manpreet Singh acknowledged the Panthers’ superior performance.

“We cannot get away by saying we made mistakes. They played really well. They played better. We could not play well. After half-time we had to take more risk,” Singh said. “We will have to work on our mistakes for the next season.”

The Steelers faced additional challenges this season, notably the absence of raider Naveen Kumar, who played just four games before being sidelined due to injury. Singh provided an update on Naveen’s rehabilitation and future with the team.

“Naveen is preparing and getting fit. We will have to see how he plays in the nationals. But whether he wants to go into the auction or stay with us depends on him. If he is fit, we would want to keep him. But right now he is under rehab.”

Looking ahead, Haryana Steelers aim to regroup and make a stronger comeback in the upcoming season.
