Williams, his brother Dean, and friends Rhodri Williams and Stewart Herbert had been out for the Wales v South Africa match in Cardiff City Centre when they were attacked last December.
Rhodri told Cardiff Crown Court there was a "good atmosphere" at the bar, with fans asking Williams for selfies. But a stranger "came out of nowhere" and tried to headbutt Dean.
Thinking Williams and friends were causing trouble, bouncers Dean Flowers, Haydn Morgan, 42, Dave Wing, 53, and Aled James, 26, allegedly scrambled to throw Williams and his pals out of the bar.
Soon after CCTV footage captures the group taking it in turns to strike Dean, with Wing putting him in a strong headlock, forcing him to tap out for release.
After the assault, Prosecutor Clare Wilks said Flowers can be seen "flexing his fingers and inside the club he's laughing and joking".
Prosecutor Clare Wilks said the accused men were working as "capacity door supervisors" in Cardiff city centre at the Coyote Ugly bar in St Mary Street.
Miss Wilks said: "At 10pm officers were flagged down by a member of the public asking them to go to the back of Coyote Ugly.
"When the officers went to that lane they found a male unconscious on the floor. He was receiving first aid from members of the public.
"It was Dean Williams, brother of Shane Williams."
She added: "CCTV picks them up in a hallway inside the club where [bouncer] Aled James manhandled Shane Williams, ripped his jacket from him as they tried to get him and the rest of the group towards the top of the stairs."
Rhodri Williams says he took out his phone to call police – but then started filming the violence.
Peter Donnison, defending Morgan, said: "You and your group of friends continued to be aggressive, angry, banging doors and throwing punches at the doormen.
"Did you see Shane Williams throw a punch at doormen and slam the door at the bouncer?"
Rhodri Williams said: "I don't recall. I was very drunk."
Flowers, of Thornhill, Cardiff, Morgan, of Bridgend, Wing, of Grangetown, Cardiff, all deny affray.
James, of Ferndale, Rhondda, pleaded guilty to affray.
The trial continues.
