The Super Bowl 56 concluded on February 14 with the Los Angeles Rams securing a resounding victory over the Cincinnati Bengals. The high octane match-up saw the Rams controlling much of the first half. In a surprising turn of events, Twitter’s resident jinx TimTheTatman upturned his streak of betting on the wrong team with his banking on the Rams to win.
But Tim is not the only streamer who sent the internet buzzing with his tweets on Monday. Fortnite superstar Ninja sent out a peculiar tweet concerning Hollywood megastar Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson.

Ninja reacts to The Rock’s Super Bowl introduction
The professional wrestler-turned-Hollywood superstar opened the game with an electrifying introduction for both teams. It pumped the crowd ahead of the nerve-wracking game that saw the likes of wide receiver Cooper Kupp being named MVP. Dwayne’s wrestling-inspired opening was even uploaded to the official NFL YouTube handle.
Titled “Guy from Fortnite with The Most Electrifying Introduction in Super Bowl History”, the video immediately went viral because of its hilarious name. Furthermore, amused fans took quips on the simplification of the superstar’s stature in the comments to the video.
However, Ninja had a surprising reaction to the event. On February 14, he sent out a tweet saying, “weird… i must have missed this phone call”
Ninja is arguably the biggest streamer to ever play Fortnite. Not only has he played with A-list celebrities like Drake, but was even the face of the title back in the day. Ninja even infamously performed the Fortnite floss dance at New York’s Times Square on New Year’s Eve 2018.
Having built an entire brand around the battle royale title, it is common to think of Ninja when one thinks of the ‘guy from Fortnite’. But Ninja’s recent tweet did not sit well with his fans.

Ninja’s healthy quip didn’t garner the response he might have expected. Regardless, the streamer has a lot to look forward to this year. His recent collaboration with 100 Thieves was a surprise for his audience, and the streamer may have more in store for the future.
