Mr Money in the Bank.

It was a disappointing weekend for Irish soccer with Ireland failing to win a crucial Euro 2016 qualifier against Scotland but one man did his utmost to restore national pride late last night.

Sheamus, the gigantic Irish wrestler kicking ass in the WWE, won the Money in the Bank ladder match, where seven competitors fight to collect a brief case that guarantees them a Heavyweight title shot at any time over the next year.

Sheamus outlasted Roman Reigns, Dolph Ziggler, Neville, Randy Orton, Kofi Kingston and Kane to reach the top of the ladder and we are looking forward to him performing the Brogue Kick on champion Seth Rollins in the next year.

In case you’ve never seen one, here is the sort of carnage that takes place in a Money in the Bank ladder match.
