Manchester City channel WWE susperstar Triple H ahead of West Ham clash

The Premier League leaders posted a picture of Kyle Walker spitting out water just like HHH does before his matches

MANCHESTER CITY have carried on their love-affair with WWE after posting a picture of Kyle Walker in a Triple H-like pose.

WWE COO and 14-time world champ HHH is known for his iconic entrance to the ring where he gets on the apron and spits water out while flexing his muscles.

Premier League leaders City noticed some similarities between that and a snap of Walker mimicking the pose and could not resist a bit of social media banter.

They captioned the tweet: "It's time to play the game! #HHH."

Fans on Twitter seemed to appreciate the tweet, with someone even photo shopping Walker's head onto The Game's body.

But I'm not sure HHH himself will be happy with the comparison, especially as he is a massive West Ham fan.

And that is who City take on tomorrow as they look to continue their unbeaten start to the season.

Right-back Walker tweeted the same pic yesterday as his reaction to the World Cup draw and realising he will be playing Kevin De Bruyne and Vincent Kompany.

City seem to have gotten into wrestling this season as they gave a tour of the Etihad to Raw general manager Kurt Angle and tag-team champs The Bar.

And HHH made the news earlier this season as Arsenal used his entrance theme ahead of their Europa League clash with Red Star Belgrade.

City have looked unstoppable at the moment and recently broke the record for the best start to a season with 40 points from 40 games.
