#4. Mansoor reveals hilarious incident of meeting Shane McMahon for the first time in WWE
Mansoor has made quite a name for himself in the WWE ever since becoming the first-ever Saudi Arabian wrestler to be signed. The talented 25-year-old star has been pushed prominently at WWE's yearly Saudi spectacles, and he even had an incredible undefeated streak that recently came to an end.
Mansoor sat down for a chat with talkSPORT's Alex McCarthy, and the wrestler revealed details of his embarrassing first interaction with Shane McMahon.
The incident happened at WWE Super Showdown in 2019 at the King Abdullah International Stadium in Jeddah. Mansoor was no stranger to the arena as he was at the previous Saudi Arabia WWE show in 2018 (WWE Greatest Royal Rumble) and knew very well where the bathroom was located.
However, WWE switched things up at WWE Super ShowDown, and one of the general locker rooms was reserved for Shane McMahon.
Mansoor used the same bathroom that he did at the Greatest Royal Rumble event without realizing that he was now walking into Shane McMahon's private dressing room.
Mansoor revealed that he came across Shane McMahon after using the bathroom, and they admittedly had a very awkward exchange.
"So then the next time we were in Saudi for the biggest battle royale, I was going to that bathroom because I knew that was the bathroom that we use, right? That's the one I go to. "So I walk in, go into the stall, and I do my business. And it's one of those automatic flush toilets that I hate. Because I like to adjust, ya know, and every time I move an inch it flushes! So it's like I'm giving birth in there [laughs]. "So that's happening and then walk out into the small locker room – there's a few lockers here and three stalls – and who do I see to my right? There's Shane McMahon," Mansoor revealed.
Mansoor recalled seeing Shane McMahon with his bags as they shared some routine pleasantries. An incredibly nervous Mansoor introduced himself to Shane McMahon, and he couldn't even have a proper handshake.
"I see him there, and he's got his bags out. I'm like 'hey… hey, how's it going?' and he looks at me with the most confused face and says, 'hey, man.' Then I'm looking at my hands like, oh, I can't shake his hand! Obviously. So I go over and ,wash my hands, and I look over at the towels, and they're out. So my hands are wet and I'm like 'Sorry' and he's like 'no, no, no, it's OK.' So then I go to walk out the door, and he says, 'Hey, wait a minute.' So I stop and freeze in a cold sweat [laughs]. He looks over and says '…Who are you?' And I go 'I'm Mansoor.' And he goes, 'OK, nice to meet you, man. I'm Shane.' OK, nice to meet you!" Mansoor added.
Mansoor walked out of the room and was unsurprisingly left embarrassed by the brief interaction. Mansoor then turned his back and saw a piece of paper on the door that read 'Shane McMahon's locker room.'
Mansoor added that Shane McMahon was 'really cool' about the incident, and they even spoke after the Saudi superstar won the 51-man Battle Royal at WWE Super ShowDown.
"And I walked out like god; that was so weird. I totally bungled that interaction. I didn't shake his hand, and I wasn't respectful, and it was all weird. And then I realized, I went back and looked on the side of the door, and there's a piece of paper that says Shane McMahon's locker room. I'm like, 'Oh nooooo.' I just took a dump in Shane McMahon's locker room! But, no, he's super cool! After I won the battle royal and I cut my promo, he was in gorilla, he came over to me, shook my hand, and said 'Hey man, you did a great job, that was awesome.' So I was like, thank god! We're good [laughs]." concluded Mansoor.
Mansoor was sent to WWE RAW last month, and he has since had a few singles matches on the red brand and at WWE's Main Event tapings.
