Manchester United and England captain Wayne Rooney was the star of the show last night at a WWE event in Manchester. 

The American company's "RAW" television show was broadcasting from England and Rooney had a front row seat for all the action along with former Manchester United team mate Darren Fletcher. 

During one of the night's matches Irish born wrestler Sheamus and England's King Barrett confronted the English striker at ringside. Barrett was slapped to the ground by Rooney much to the delight of the local crowd.

Maybe Rooney has a future in Sports Entertainment when his footballing career comes to a close.
