All of that boxing with Phil Bardsley was leading up to this moment.
Wayne Rooney was called out by WWE superstar Wade Barrett at the organisation’s show in Manchester on Monday evening.
Barrett did a good job of turning the home crowd against him by mocking Manchester United before he left the ring to confront the striker.

Rooney’s aim with his hands was significantly better than that of his feet lately and the England international let fly with a slap from the front row, much to the arena’s excitement.

We just feel sorry for poor Wayne when Colleen sits him down in the morning to explain that pro-wrestling isn’t real.
