5 Things that happened when Jose Mourinho appeared on WWE RAW

#4 Shane McMahon took another dig at Jose Mourinho

During the same promo, Shane McMahon went on to say that he witnessed Great Britain’s greatest wrestler single-handedly defeat six men in a pub brawl the previous night. Then, just when Jose Mourinho probably thought he was safe, Shane took one last dig at him.

“If you can call them men. Actually, I think they were members of your [Jose Mourinho’s] Chelsea Football Club.”

This moment has led to the creation of several videos on the internet titled “Jose Mourinho gets owned by Shane O’Mac on WWE RAW”, but that seems a bit unfair when you consider that “The Special One” did not have a microphone to respond.

Seconds later, the person who Shane was referring to – current Performance Center trainer Robbie Brookside, father of NXT UK’s Xia Brookside – was introduced as his opponent.

Looking back, WWE’s higher-ups likely thought the United Kingdom fans would rally behind someone from their own country, but the crowd turned against Brookside as soon as Shane said he was from Liverpool.

The most popular person in the opening segment turned out to be Vince McMahon, who joined forces with Shane and Umaga to defeat the helpless Brookside in a 3-on-1 handicap match.

Despite three of WWE’s top villains standing tall at the end of the first segment, it was Jose Mourinho who received the loudest boos in the first 20 minutes of the show – and he probably wouldn’t have it any other way!
