Los Angeles Rams beat the Cincinnati Bengals at the Super Bowl LVI last night by a score of 23-20. However, the fans on the internet are absolutely livid with the outcome and even comparing the NFL with WWE.
The reason the fans are comparing the NFL with WWE is that they are claiming that the NFL is now as scripted as the WWE these days. Some fans on the internet threw dirt on the Los Angeles Rams and the entire NFL, for the way things eventually shaped out.

Interestingly, there were many WWE references made at the Super Bowl LVI event, and the fans on the internet are just connecting the dots. Chiefly, there are fans on the internet who think that NFL is “rigged”
Former WWE Champion Dwayne ‘The Rock” Johnson did a massive introduction before the start of the event. While the fans loved to see the WWE-style introduction, ironically, the fans pointed out to this moment and concluded that NFL is fake.

The fans are livid to see the connection between WWE and the Super Bowl event
One fan on the internet took to his Twitter and wrote that NFL has joined the “fake league” as WWE. Interestingly, the fan took a cheap shot at The Rock’s segment at the event.
The best part of @TheRock opening up the Superb Owl is the subtle acknowledgement that the NFL has joined the WWE as a fake league.

One fan wrote that NFL should admit that they are scripted just like Vince McMahon and his team admits that the WWE is scripted. However, the fans also noted that the NFL should not “pretend” that it’s a real sport.
I love football, but, if the @NFL is going to author and manipulate the results, just tell me up front. I’ll still watch it, at least I can pretend it’s real, you know like @WWE. #rigged #nfl #SuperBowl #wwe #fake

Perhaps, this tweet is the biggest dig on NFL, using the name of WWE. The fan noted that League has the most corrupt officiating and also wrote that WWE does a great job as writers. Eventually, the fan ended the tweet by suggesting that the NFL should hire some writers from WWE.
@nfl way to ruin your biggest game with the most corrupt officiating. Your fake super bowl winners ruin this league. WWE at least tries to make someone winning the title look real. Maybe hire their writers?

One fan took a dig on The Rock, writing that any athletic event hosted by him is a subtle indication that the particular sport is fake.
Yo, this WWE super bowl is happening right now. I guess you expect a fake athletic event when it’s introduced by the Rock!! @NFL @WWE @TheRock
