The wrestling fans aren’t unaware of fans cosplaying as pro-wrestlers. In fact, there’s an entire event dedicated to fans who want to cosplay as their favourite pro-wrestlers. But, it becomes extremely confusing when a pro-wrestler starts looking like they’re cosplaying another such as John Cena.

It so happened that AEW pro-wrestler and WCW Legend Sting appeared on Television with the usual face make-up. However, somehow the face paint made Sting’s facial features extremely similar to that of John Cena. Some fans were quite confused, and expressed the same on social media.

Of course, it was Sting. But, the similarities had everyone wondering could it actually be John Cena? Was it him?
