Say goodbye to Pete Dunne, and say hello to “Butch.”
On the March 11 episode of WWE SmackDown, Sheamus introduced “Butch” during a backstage interview. He noted that he goes way back with the newcomer and called him more powerful than two sledgehammers combined. “The Celtic White” has been paired up with Ridge Holland, Dunne’s former ally on WWE NXT, for several months now, so it seems like the three men will work together moving forward on the blue brand.

“Butch” then accompanied Sheamus and Holland to the ring for their match with Big E and Kofi Kingston. He helped the duo pick up the win, and the former NXT UK Champion attacked Kingston after the bout.
