WWE superstar Sheamus has been absent from WWE’s in-ring action for over a month, as he is currently recovering from the nose surgery that he underwent after breaking his nose during a Monday Night RAW match, back in June. He underwent the surgery, recovered from it, and appeared in the ring while sporting a mask, however, he went under the knife again at the end of September after his fight with Damian Priest.

Meanwhile, as WWE announced the exciting match cards for its UK tour in November, Sheamus is being advertised for the tour and he is all set to step back into the ring in a number of matches in the coming week.

The eight-date UK tour of WWE will start on November 3 with the live show in Brighton and will end on November 10 at Manchester. Meanwhile, Sheamus will return to the ring for the first time, since his last appearance in the no-disqualification match on WWE RAW’s September 27 episode. Before the match with Priest, he competed in a triple threat match on September 26, against Jeff Hardy and Priest, where he must have re-injured his nose.
