An A Good Ol' Fashioned Donnybrook Match in WWE has sections resembling a no-disqualification hardcore wrestling match, centered around Irish Brandy, shillelaghs, and other props located in the ringside area for the combatants to use as weapons. A 'donnybrook' is an Irish term for a mass brawl, probably the descendant of the Donnybrook Fair as it is known for violence. This match has no countouts or disqualifications, so the actions within the match are free and uncensored as the combatants attempt to use brute force on one another, resulting in nasty or inventive uses of the props. This was first shown by Sheamus. The match was suited to his Irish persona of the “Celtic Warrior” and serves to show his, and indeed the wrestling around it, brutality. A clear example is in the Clash in Paris 2025 event, Sheamus vs Rusev, a combat in the Clash in Paris 2025 revolving around the quarrel that leaded to a 1-1 score with a double count, required a no rules match to justify the score. The arrangement is known to have Irish props as the dominant of that style. This match has to be fan favorite for the chaos as its fast paced and high energy.
