The guy with the celtic logos all over this attire, who used to talk about Ireland in half his promos, the bright red hair, the pale skin that WWE constantly mock him for. AND a dubliner who supports Liverpool FC.
HE is calling the rock'n'rolla brunette that rarely talks about Ireland a "Plastic paddy"?
I know this was ages ago but it really pissed me off.

I just wish one of them (or Becky) would talk about Try Channel, or have Max "Leather Jacket Guy" Byrne accompany them to the ring.

I know he called a Boston crowd that for cheering him when he was still a new-ish heel. I don't recall him ever calling Finn that, though I suppose it's possible.

Can someone who's Irish help me out here?
I always thought "Plastic Paddy" was a term for Americans who think they're Irish because their Great-grandparents were.

It is, that's why Sheamus's usage of it is especially moronic. Strangely, considering how he ended up, Sheamus spent his debut months in WWECW lambasting Finlay for playing up to Irish stereotypes in the USA. |

That's why Sheamus is the first "Irish Born" WWE Champion and not just the first Irish Champion because so many americans claim Irish heritage. But I get it. I'm a plastic Lithuanian, since my family is form there. Got the Lithuania Grateful Dead basketball jersey and everything. Literally only been there once and the only things I can say in Lithuanian are "Hi", "Thanks", "Two beers please" and "whore". |

That's a shameful thing to say, Lobsterhead.

Literally only been there once and the only things I can say in Lithuanian are "Hi", "Thanks", "Two beers please" and "whore". I always thought “first Irish born champ” was done either on the insistence of or to please Vince who was the first ethnically Irish WWE champion or at least the first that there is no confusion over as Hogan was kayfabe Irish but Bollea is Italian and while it’s likely the red headed Mark Calaway has real life Irish roots undead zombies are famously uninterested in their ancestry. Finn supports Spurs (probably because Robbie Keane the best player in the Irish national team when Finn was a kid played for them). Spurs are a London side with few links to Ireland (historically the club of choice for London’s Jewish community) and most of the Irish diaspora in London supports their rivals Arsenal. Sheamus’ team Liverpool have much stronger links to Ireland due to only a ferry crossing separating them. It was probably football banter in joke stuff that no one apart from the two men got or cared about. Edited to say I forgot about Foley which is an Irish surname, how can I wriggle out of that one? Oh right, both title wins were under the Mankind ringname which is Foley’s alter ego so may not necessarily share his ethnic identity if he has one, phew! |

I remember this and a friend of mine watching it laughed at it. I don't remember him calling Finn that before though. Didn't santino insult Patterson, nj something similar towards Italian Americans too? I could have sworn I saw that on raw once |

What if Sheamus was called Sheamoose, and walked to the ring wearing a giant moose head?
