WWE superstars joined forces with the Premier League powerhouses Manchester United and City on Tuesday.
The wrestling promotion is currently on tour around Europe and its latest stop has been the North West.
And the opportunity seemed too good to miss when the ring warriors were given a special invite to both clubs.
Former WWE heavyweight champion Dolph Ziggler and current SmackDown Live women’s title holder Natalya, who spoke exclusively to SunSport last week, were the guests of the Red Devils.
And the duo seemed to be having the time of their life as they met a number of kids involved in Manchester United’s foundation.
They were only too happy to meet, greet and pose for pictures with the youngsters at the club’s anti-bullying workshop.
And the pair were given a guided tour of the famous Theatre of Dreams before being handed their very own United shirts.
Meanwhile across town, new Raw tag team champions Sheamus and Cesaro had joined general manager Kurt Angle for a visit to neighbours Manchester City just 24 hours earlier.
And the fearsome wrestling trio came face-to-face with an Etihad warrior as they toured the club’s facilities – none other than club captain Vincent Kompany.

Sheamus has been vocal in his support of Prem rivals Liverpool on numerous occasions in the past.
And the City skipper will have no doubt enjoyed reminding the Irishman of the 5-0 thumping his team-mates inflicted on the Reds earlier this season.
Monday night’s Raw episode came live from Manchester last night.
And that will be followed by this evening’s edition of SmackDown.
