Usually when a pro wrestling video goes viral, the word “adorable” doesn’t come to mind. But that’s the exact reaction the Internet gave when Facebook user Ashley Ward uploaded a video on Monday of her three kittens playing inside of a $2 toy wrestling ring she had bought at a thrift store.

“I just saw a video of three kittens play fighting in a tiny wrestling ring. I would be way more interested in trying out wrestling if that’s what it was,” one viewer wrote.
“No ones listening to the referee,” another jokingly commented.
It looks like some of the higher-ups in the wrestling world also caught wind of the video.
I can neither confirm nor deny that we have ordered an NWA Feline Title
Canโt wait to get DMs asking me about this. https://t.co/VpnEwkbrPx
