Whats the odds he cuts a promo :rolleyes:



Taken form wwe.com

World-renowned football (or, to North Americans, soccer) coach Jose Mourinho was one of the thousands in attendance as Raw invaded Earls Court.

Widely considered the best coach in the game, Mourinho has led the Chelsea Football Club to consecutive Premiere League titles (2005, 2006), and was also named by the International Federation of Football History and Statistics (IFFHS) as the world’s best football coach in both 2004 and 2005.

Prior to his first live WWE event, Mourinho expressed why attending Raw was so special to him.

“WWE came to my house because of them,” he said, pointing to his children, Matilde and Jose. “For me, it’s great to be with my kids, and to be around the people they admire very much; I think that is very cool.”

Longtime Chelsea fan Todd Grisham was thrilled to grab a snapshot with one of his idols.

“I try to go to Chelsea games every time I’m in London,” said Grisham. “It was great to get a photo with Jose Mourinho. He’s basically the Bill Parcells of soccer out here; every team from Spain to Portugal to China wants him to be their coach.”

Much like the National Football League’s Parcells, Mourinho is also known for his confident coaching style and ability to respond to people who question his authority with brash quips. But a few weeks ago while traveling with his team, the Chelsea coach ran into SmackDown’s Chris Benoit. Once he was introduced to how massive the WWE Superstars are in person, that notorious swagger shrunk, and his mouth was zipped.

“I realized that Chris Benoit’s hand is stronger than my leg. So, I don’t want to mess with any of [the Superstars]; I just want to be friends,” he joked.

That's Cool, I Never knew José liked Wrestling

Now there is a celebrity WWE won't have to pay to go to their shows, lol. Did anyone read the article with him in one of the red tops last week? It was something like he had tickets to a show tomorrow night, but couldn't go because of the match with Liverpool.

Fozzy

Hahaha, that's gas. I suppose he'll be shown on camera tonight then. He could teach some wrestlers a thing or two about cutting promos!

Charlie

It was gas. Was on wwe.com and out of the corner of my eye I thought I saw Jose grinnin' away at me but all logic told me it wasn't him.

I would love if they do one of those interviews with him that they do with celebs when setting up the next match. If it was in the states it would be mehhh, but seeing as its in the U.K. he could get a pretty interesting reaction if on the mic.

I have a feeling though that if it did happen Todd interviewing would be cringe worthy as hell, he'd come out with something like "Your going to stuff Liverpool, I bet it will be 10 goals to Chelsea United, no 15 goals, and my man Drogbahh will score 8."

Mr.Nice Guy

That's great stuff. Mourinho would do well in WWE I reckon. He oozes machismo a la Razor Ramon.

He did an interview with the Star/Sun a while ago and he referred to meeting Benoit with his kids and how he couldn't get them to play football because they were into wrestling so much!

By 'red tops' do you mean tabloids? The article you are talking about was in the Irish edition of the Daily Mail.

Maybe Jose should try his hand at the wrestling business since he's not gonna win anything this season!

lol yeah because the daily mail is fierce hardline journalism,its a rag

Minto

I agreee with Krudler, the Daily Mail may be a little better then the comic books like The Sun etc., but I would still consider it a tabloid.
