In a twist that has left both cricket and wrestling fans scratching their heads, legendary wrestling promoter Eric Bischoff sent his best wishes to Indian cricketer Rishabh Pant. Yes, you read that right—what in the multiverse of madness is going on here?
While it did make some sense for Ric Flair to acknowledge Indian captain Rohit Sharma—especially after Sharma mimicked the Nature Boy’s iconic walk during India’s T20 World Cup celebrations—this latest interaction is as random as it gets.
The bizarre crossover began when a Twitter user praised Rishabh Pant for his incredible comeback to the Indian Test squad. The tweet read: “The return of Rishabh Pant to the Indian Test squad within two years of that horrific road accident is a remarkable story of resilience & willpower. He now gets five Tests to feel his way back in before he heads here in November to resume his love affair with Australia #AusvInd.”
Discipline and commitment. Deadly combination. Good luck @RishabhPant17 ! https://t.co/IW4GcYmCeu

Out of nowhere, Eric Bischoff, the renowned WCW and WWE promoter, chimed in on the thread with his own words of encouragement:
Discipline and commitment. Deadly combination. Good luck Rishabh Pant!
The unexpected interaction sent hardcore wrestling fans into a frenzy, trying to make sense of this unlikely crossover. Meanwhile, some cricket fans were left wondering who Eric Bischoff even was.
One user humorously asked, “Who are you uncle ????”, while another commented, “WWE star praising Rishabh Pant, When you’re big, You’re big ðŸ˜ðŸ”¥”. Yet another bewildered fan wrote, “What is this crossover? 😳”
