WWE is a popular sport and has fans all around the world. These fans often show their love for the sport in different ways. Wearing favorite wrestlers-inspired outfits is one such example.
Also, not only fans but popular names in the entertainment industry also do the same. Like the time when Canadian singer The Weeknd wore an outfit inspired by Seth Rollins, from the time he was in The Shield, at Coachella.
Similarly, a recent occurrence involving an NBA superstar imitating the iconic look of WWE Legend and Hall of Famer “Stone Cold” Steve Austin has gone viral on social media.
