John Cena posts picture of Virat Kohli; sends Instagram into frenzy

John Cena is arguably one of the biggest names in World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE). A 15-time WWE Champion loved by each of his volume of fans, Cena sent his social media world into a frenzy with a strange yet interesting post. In the wee hours of Thursday morning, Cena put up a picture of India Test skipper Virat Kohli. It was a promotional picture and read the old ‘Bleed Blue’.

Cena’s Instagram account reads: “Welcome to my Instagram. These images will be posted without explanation, for your interpretation. Enjoy.” One of the possible interpretations to this could possibly be Cena’s support towards Friday Night Smackdown following his draft from Monday Night Raw in the recently concluded 2016 edition of the WWE Draft 2016. This can be backed-up by a follow-up image posted by Cena stating ‘Keep Calm and Bleed Blue’, especially with the Smackdown logo being blue.

However, many others have gone on to interpret the same as the 39-year old WWE superstar showing his support for the Indian Test skipper ahead of India’s series against West Indies. It would be difficult not to interpret the same as the timing of the posting comes just a few short hours before Virat Kohli and his band of merry men face-off against the West Indies. Although he has shocked the world on a previous occasion by speaking Japanese in the WWE ring, Cena has never endorsed himself as a cricket fan or better yet, a fan of Virat Kohli.
