Rooney ‘slaps’ wrestler in WWE skit
Manchester United captain Wayne Rooney
stole the show at a World Wrestling
Entertainment (WWE) event by ‘slapping’ a
wrestler who goaded him at ringside.
Rooney has come under fire over a
shortage of goals this season, but he
showed that he could still find the target
after being challenged by Wade Barrett
during the ‘Raw’ show at Manchester
Arena on Monday.
Spotting Rooney in the front row with
his six-year-old son, Kai, Englishman
Barrett told him: “I don’t like the way
you’re looking at me, Wayne. You’re
looking at me like you’ve got some kind
of problem with me.”
After threatening to knock Rooney out,
Barrett prodded him in the chest, only
for the England skipper to react with a
right-hand slap that sent the giant
wrestler tumbling theatrically to the
floor.
Barrett sparked a feud with Rooney by
accusing the striker of diving to win a
penalty against Preston North End, the
team he supports, in last season’s FA
Cup.
But as in all WWE fights, the pair’s
coming-together was not to be taken
seriously.
