The exciting combination of social media and sports has become a perfect source of entertainment for fans nowadays. We have often come across various personalities engaging in fun banter but this time things got to a whole new different level. Bollywood's superstar Akshay Kumar recently got challenged by former WWE wrestler - The Undertaker in an extremely surprising turn of events.

The banter began when Akshay Kumar posted a funny meme on his Instagram account ahead of the 25 year anniversary of a classic movie 'Khiladiyo ka Khiladi'. In the post, the 53-year-old had hilariously claimed to have beaten WWE legend The Undertaker along with another wrestler like Brock Lesnar, Triple H and Roman Reigns. Notably, the actor had actually defeated the American wrestler in an epic fight in the movie where the role of The Undertaker was played by wrestler Brian Lee.

While it looked like the end of the story, the actual surprise was yet to come. Interestingly, The Undertaker - who has a massive fan following in India - responded to the same and challenged Akshay Kumar for a re-match. He said, "Ha! Tell me when you're ready for a REAL rematch!" While the fans were shocked to see such an epic reply by the WWE legend, the Bollywood actor was quick to admit that he will need to check his insurance before thinking about a match like this in reality. "Let me check on my insurance and get back bro!" commented Akshay.
