We still don't know if Sheamus is scheduled to make his return at Sunday's WWE Royal Rumble pay-per-view but we now know he is returning soon because he's penciled into one of the top 5 matches at WrestleMania XXX.
Current plans as of today, January 24th, have Sheamus facing Daniel Bryan in a singles match at WrestleMania.

This will be the third WrestleMania match between the two. They faced in a Lumberjack dark match resulting on a no contest at WrestleMania 27 and Sheamus defeated Bryan in 18 seconds at WrestleMania 28.

Plans can always change six weeks out but word as of today that the Sheamus vs. Bryan match is pretty much set in stone.

On one hand we get heel Sheamus, on the other hand it doesn't seem like a big mania payoff for Bryan.

If you think it through it's probably the best case scenario for Bryan at this point. What are his other options? It's not the right time for him to face the streak. Doubt he's returning to the title picture. A long, drawn out feud with Wyatt would be lame. Punk is taking on the authority.

It would be a great start to the show. Bryan goes over, gets to avenge WM28 defeat, lots of YES chants, etc.

Sheamus and Y2J are slated for an Auto show appearance in Pittsburgh this weekend.
Sheamus on Friday & Y2J on Saturday, neither on Sunday.
I'm pretty sure he's in the Rumble same with Y2J :) But if these are really what it's looking like.. that's just plain turrible.

I like your way of looking at it. But considering how close Trips is to Sheamus I fear that he will book Sheamus to go over to make him look strong.
Match will most likely be real good if allowed the time since the two have a lot of chemistry and work well together. And if the story is set up right I will enjoy it. But the idea of Sheamus and Bryan having a third Wrestlemania match with at least right now at the outset a bit disappointing to me.

Speaking of Y2J, why not Y2J/Bryan at WM?

Obviously I'd be totally against it if Sheamus is planned to win. Who else could he face though? Very few credible heels right now.

If we get heel Sheamus, cool. If this will be a match with nothing on the line, not cool.

This is sad, really sad. DB deserves so much more. I still remember people with their 'wait and see' bullshit. They said he'd get his revenge on HHH, that he'd get his run with the title. Now this. It's not even DB vs HBK. It's Sheamus. Sad, just sad.

You don't have to wait, you can start reveling right now.

Ehhhhhh I feel that Mania should be an hour longer than all the other PPVs. I feel that there should be something to make 'Mania feel special other than the big arena.
