It's not a secret that Bollywood heartthrob Ranveer Singh is an ardent WWE fan, and he let it publicly known in his latest Instagram post. Singh posted a throwback picture featuring himself, posing beside a wall poster of none other than WWE Hall of Famer, Hulk Hogan. He wrote Hogan's iconic catchphrase of "Whatcha gonna do, when Hulkamania runs wild on you!" in the caption, and added that the still is from his childhood days, when "WWE was life". The post garnered a response from former WWE Champion Jinder Mahal, who took exception to Singh's comment.

This isn't the first time that the Bollywood star has interacted with a WWE Superstar. Last year, WWE legend John Cena posted a picture of Ranveer on his official Instagram handle. Singh commented on the post, and wrote, "Can't see me", taking reference from Cena's legendary catchphrase.

Will Ranveer have a response to Jinder Mahal's witty comment?
Mahal is the first wrestler of Indian descent to win the WWE Championship. He won the belt back in 2017, by defeating Randy Orton, and thus became the company's 50th World Champion. Fans of Mahal and Singh would want nothing but to witness a friendly banter between the two stars, now that former's comment has set the stage for the same.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
