Sheamus continued to fight back however, he countered Cesaro’s signature swing and he hit the Swiss superstar with several Irish Curse backbreakers. The two superstars went back and forth for the next few minutes with neither man looking to quit.

Then Cesaro found the break he was looking for. He managed to hit Sheamus with the Cesaro swing and he worked the move into a Sharpshooter in the center of the ring. Just when it seemed like Cesaro would win, Sheamus somehow managed to crawl to the ropes to force a break.

After knocking Sheamus off the apron, Cesaro hit the Irish superstar with a Tope Suicida, landing awkwardly on his head. It took sometime for both men to get up.

The two superstars continued to go back and fourth. Then Sheamus hit Cesaro with a Brogue kick, but Cesaro somehow managed to kick out at two. A few minutes later, Cesaro hit the Neutralizer on Sheamus but he also kicked out.

With both men exhausted, Sheamus jumped shoulder first from the top rope, but Cesaro countered it with a massive uppercut. After both men made it to their feet, the continued to trade blows on the outside of the ring.

This lead to both men going over the barricade, where they remained on the ground for several minutes. Afterwards, the referee decided to stop the match because both superstars could not get up to continue wrestling.

This match was really entertaining and well executed. We got to see both men go all out and perform moves we are not used to seeing.
