The wrestling promotion's SmackDown roster are currently in the UK performing at a number of venues.

A pair of the blue brand's superstars decided to take the opportunity to pay the SBG a visit while in Dublin on Thursday.

Former women's champion Becky Lynch, who hails from the Irish capital, opted to get down and dirty in the famed training house.

And she was joined by the current WWE heavyweight title holder Jinder Mahal for a strenuous work out.

Kavanagh was obviously delighted with the efforts of his guests, and shared a number of photos of them in action on his Instagram.

It was perhaps a very wise decision by Mahal to get as much experience of UFC fighting as he can before he comes face-to-face with Brock Lesnar.
