Preity Zinta in WWE? Viral video triggers speculation over the Punjab Kings owner
A video in circulation on social media has set fans alive with conjecture that Bollywood star and Punjab Kings
co-owner Preity Zinta may have made an unexpected entry into the world of WWE. The short clip, widely shared on X (formerly Twitter), shows a WWE match featuring a woman wrestler whose appearance closely resembles Preity Zinta.
With her trademark dimples and striking smile, the resemblance was enough to convince many users that the actress had swapped cricket ownership for a wrestling ring.
Fans react with memes and questions
As the video gained momentum, fans flooded social media with questions, memes, and jokes about Zinta’s supposed career shift. Some even imagined her walking into a WWE arena as the “Punjab Super Queen,” linking her IPL franchise with a potential new wrestling persona.
However, the mystery was quickly solved. Several users clarified that the wrestler in the viral clip was not Preity Zinta but Irish WWE star Lyra Valkyria. Acknowledged for her strong in-ring performances, Valkyria’s features bear an uncanny resemblance to the Bollywood actress, leading to the playful confusion online.
It isn’t uncommon of such cases of celebrity lookalikes causing social media frenzies. Fans often latch on to uncanny resemblances, fueling debates and viral chatter. In this case, the idea of a Bollywood icon and IPL team owner suddenly entering the wrestling world made the speculation even stronger.
Preity Zinta has been a prominent face in the Indian Premier League since its inception. She is the co-owner of Punjab Kings (formerly Kings XI Punjab), one of the league’s original franchises. Acknowledged for her active involvement, Zinta is often seen cheering from the stands, engaging with fans, and making business decisions alongside her co-owners. Her presence has made Punjab’s team one of the most recognisable brands in the IPL, blending Bollywood glamour with cricketing action.
