WWE Superstar Mansoor won the 50-man battle royal at Super ShowDown in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia last summer. He followed the win up by defeating Cesaro at Crown Jewel on October 31st, 2019. He spoke with Sports 360 recently and stated that his next goal is to win a WWE title on a show from Saudi Arabia.

“My primary goal right now is to win a championship in Saudi Arabia. I would really love to share that moment with the crowd. For a Saudi wrestler to win a title on home soil would be truly special,” Mansoor said.

Mansoor would also comment on the experience of winning the battle royal at Super ShowDown.

“Not only did I win the match and make my family, who were in the front row, very proud, but I got to show what I can really do in the ring. People started to look at me differently after that match so it was something really special.”

Mansoor also spoke about WWE legends coming up to him after the match.

“Some true WWE legends, such as Hulk Hogan and Ric Fair, were also involved that night and to speak to them and listen to their advice afterwards was absolutely fantastic for me because there is a long way to go in my journey.”

Mansoor defeated Cesaro in single’s competition the last time WWE was in Saudi Arabia. He spoke to Sports 360 about the experience.

“Cesaro is such a talented wrestler so to fight him on the big stage was incredible, it could have gone a number of ways but luckily I won which was the dream outcome,” he said.

Finally, Mansoor spoke about how WWE’s events in the region are helping a generation of fans get to see the action live.

“It’s great that the thousands of WWE fans across the Middle East are now being given opportunities to watch their heroes perform live in the region because when I was younger that was never the case,” Mansoor said.
