Wrestler John Cena recently expressed his admiration for cricketer MS Dhoni and his iconic “You Can’t See Me” gesture during an IPL 2023 match between Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Mumbai Indians. Cena took to social media to share his reaction to the moment, which has since gone viral.
During the match, which took place at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, Dhoni, who is the captain of CSK, made the gesture after hitting a six. The gesture involves waving one hand in front of the face with the other hand behind the head, symbolizing that the opponent can’t see him. The move has become synonymous with Dhoni and is often imitated by fans.
Cena, who is known for his catchphrase “You Can’t See Me” in the wrestling world, took notice of Dhoni’s gesture and praised the cricketer’s skills and influence on the sport. Cena posted a picture of Dhoni’s gesture on his Instagram page and wrote, “Respect for your skill and your influence on the sport. Cannot say it enough, you are the man.”
Cena’s post quickly gained attention from fans of both wrestling and cricket, with many praising the mutual respect between the two athletes. The post has since received over 1 million likes and thousands of comments from fans around the world.
Dhoni, who retired from international cricket in 2020, is considered one of the greatest cricketers of all time. He has led the Indian cricket team to multiple victories and has also won several IPL titles with CSK. Dhoni is known for his calm demeanor on the field and his ability to lead his team to victory in high-pressure situations.
