The WWE has made its way to Europe this week, ahead of an upcoming series of visits to venues across the continent.

This schedule will be kicked into gear on Friday, courtesy of a special episode of SmackDown aired from the city of Barcelona.

And as alluded to above, in attendance at the show is none other than the hero of Barcelona, in the form of teenage sensation Lamine Yamal.

Wide-man Lamine was joined by Blaugrana teammate Héctor Fort and a group of friends in being afforded backstage access to the event, in turn handed the chance to meet some of the WWE’s biggest stars.

And none come bigger than the reigning Universal Champion, Cody Rhodes, who even passed his championship belt over to the Spanish international to pose for a photo:
