Video: Italia ’90-esque scenes in Dublin bar as The Rock wins the WWE title

Don’t tell these boys that the WWE ain’t real, that’s real emotion on show here folks.

Sunday night’s Royal Rumble show culminated in a title match between long-time champ CM Punk and everyone’s favourite The Rock.

As any keen follower of the squared circle will know, The Rock won the day, ending Punk’s 434 day reign as the champ, a lifetime in the topsy-turvy world of WWE.

It was the first time the man called Dwayne Johnson had the gold around his waist in over a decade and that meant a lot to his fans, like these guys in Dublin.

At an unknown venue the atmosphere during the title match was akin to an Irish World Cup final appearance and as the ref gave it the old one, two, three the place went bat sh*t crazy.

We especially like the guy who rips his shirt off.
