In the most unexpected crossover since Spider-Man swung into the Avengers, John freaking Cena posted a photo of Virat Kohli on Instagram¡ªand social media has been in shambles ever since.
Let us set the stage: Ahead of Royal Challengers Bengaluru¡¯s big IPL 2025 clash against Mumbai Indians, Kohli was spotted channelling his inner WWE superstar. Wearing his T20 World Cup 2024 ring like a flex king, he whipped out Cena¡¯s legendary ¡°You can¡¯t see me¡± gesture¡ªand yes, RCB even added Cena¡¯s entrance theme to the background for full drama.
RCB fans screamed. WWE fans screamed louder. But the moment Cena himself entered the chat? Game over.?With zero caption (classic Cena), the wrestling icon posted Kohli¡¯s pic to his grid. Just vibes, just aura. And the internet? It exploded like a last-ball six at Wankhede.
While the photo sent fans spiralling into fan-fiction territory, Kohli did not stop at just the drama. He followed it up by smashing a glorious 67 off 42 balls against Mumbai Indians, helping RCB put up a massive total of 221. And yes, RCB finally broke their Wankhede curse with a win¡ªfirst time since 2015.
Cena¡¯s post may not have had a caption, but fans filled in the blanks with memes, edits, and full-blown wrestling commentary.? ¡°It is like Kohli just got knighted by WWE royalty,¡± one user declared. Another asked, ¡°So when is Cena joining RCB as mascot?¡±
Kohli¡¯s been in mood, RCB¡¯s on a roll, and now we have WWE crossover energy in cricket. What a time to be alive.
Next up, RCB faces Delhi Capitals on April 10. But for now? The only thing anyone can talk about is how John Cena can see Virat Kohli¡ªand he posted him too.
