Sheamus is about to have some Irish company in the WWE with news of them signing another Irish wrestler in the shape of Fergal Devitt aka Prince Devitt.

The man of the moment took to Twitter to announce it like this:

The WWE announced the news on their official site where  Devitt said, “This is something I’ve been looking forward to since I was maybe four or five years old. I grew up watching wrestling my whole life, so to get the chance to step in the ring that I’ve watched on TV so many times is a dream come true.”

On what his ambitions were, he said, “The target would be John Cena (pic above), because if you’re wrestling John Cena, you’re in the main event.”

Brilliant news for the Irish man and we look forward to seeing how he gets on in the years ahead.
