Mansoor recalls the time he sat on the wrong throne.
Mansoor recently spoke with talkSPORT‘s Alex McCarthy and shared a rather humorous story about how he accidentally used Shane McMahon’s private locker room in Saudi Arabia to take a poop. As Mansoor explained it, he was on hand for the Greatest Royal Rumble in Saudi Arabia and some of the talent had to share a bathroom, and he believed that was the same talent bathroom for all future events too.
“So then the next time we were in Saudi for the biggest battle royale [at WWE Super ShowDown 2019], 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. 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.”
Mansoor explained that he couldn’t shake Shane’s hand due to the awkwardness of the situation, but they still had a bit of a weird introduction and exchanged pleasantries. Mansoor says he thought he “bungled” the interaction and it was weird, including after he left and saw that someone had posted a sign on the door that confirmed it was now Shane’s locker room for the event.
“And then I realised, 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].”
