John Cena may seem like the least internet wrestling community savvy star in the WWE, but he continues to jab the smarks and the dirt sheets via his Instagram account. Yesterday, Cena posted a photo of New Japan Bullet Club member Kenny Omega, leading many to believe Omega might be WWE bound..
Last week, Kenny Omega put on a match with Okada at Wrestle Kingdom 11 which many in the wrestling community called the greatest match of all time. Two days later, Omega said he’s “stepping away from Japan to reassess his future,” and followed that up to say his “there is no plan, My schedule is cleared and I’m weighing all options.” The comments were particularly interesting, considering he told Sports Illustrated that he had zero interest in being “a cog in the machine,” in reference to joining WWE.

It’s highly unlikely that Omega has tipped his hat towards joining the WWE. What’s much more likely is that John Cena is once again having a little fun with the smarky wrestling crowd. In case you didn’t already know, Cena’s Instagram is nothing but random photos with zero captions. His bio simply states, “Welcome to my Instagram. These images will be posted without explanation, for your interpretation. Enjoy.”
Well played, Cena.
