The entire nation is currently in a state of jubilation, celebrating India’s remarkable triumph in the T20 World Cup. Under the leadership of the world’s top batsman, Rohit Sharma, Team India excelled throughout the tournament and emerged as World Champions. As the excitement spreads, social media is buzzing with unique memes and celebratory posts about the victory. Among these, one particular clip has garnered significant attention and praise from the sports community.
In a moment that has gone viral, Rohit Sharma approached the team in the iconic style of WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair. Adopting Flair’s slow, distinctive walk from the WWE ring, Sharma’s performance was a clear nod to the legendary wrestler. What made the scene even more captivating was Sharma’s flawless mimicry of Ric Flair’s walk as he approached the trophy, a tribute to the 16-time World Champion that was both respectful and entertaining.
Interestingly, Ric Flair himself took notice of this homage and shared a video featuring Rohit Sharma imitating his iconic walking style. The video is a cleverly edited clip that syncs Sharma’s walk with a clip of Flair doing the same. This video is now trending, delighting fans from both the WWE and cricket worlds. The sports communities are thrilled to see two great sportsmen from different fields showcasing their moves, and fans are appreciating both Sharma’s mimicry and Flair’s enthusiasm in sharing the clip.
Ric Flair is officially recognized by WWE as a 16-time world champion, with his championship reigns including 8-time NWA World Heavyweight Champion, 6-time WCW World Heavyweight Champion, and two-time WWF Champion. However, the number of his world championship reigns varies by source, with some citing figures ranging from 16 or 17 to 25.
Flair’s career is filled with notable achievements. He was the first holder of both the WCW World Heavyweight Championship and the WCW International World Heavyweight Championship. As the inaugural WCW World Heavyweight Champion, he became the first person to complete WCW’s Triple Crown, having previously held the WCW United States Heavyweight Championship and the WCW World Tag Team Championship.
Throughout his illustrious career, Ric Flair has competed against many iconic wrestlers, including Triple H, Edge, The Undertaker, Randy Orton, Batista, and Shawn Michaels. Flair’s final match was against Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania 24, a bout with the stipulation that if Flair lost, he would leave WWE. This match is considered one of the most iconic WrestleMania matches of all time.
The video shared by Ric Flair has created a unique bond between the wrestling and cricket worlds, with fans from both sports celebrating the moment. Rohit Sharma’s tribute to Flair is a testament to the influence and reach of the WWE Hall of Famer, even beyond the wrestling ring. The blend of Flair’s iconic persona with India’s cricketing glory has created a viral sensation that showcases the universal appeal of both sports.
