Lion battles professional wrestlers in game of tug-of-war

Raw video: Three WWE NXT stars were no match for a young female lion at the San Antonio Zoo.

If you ever wondered who would win a tug-of-war between WWE superstars and a lion cub, then the San Antonio Zoo has your answer.

WWE NXT stars Ricochet, Fabian Aichner and Smackdown star Killian Dain were filmed at the Texan zoo battling a 2-and-a-half-year-old lion cub in a game of tug-of-war.

The video was shot last month but went viral on social media only Thursday.

The lion cub held its own against the shredded professional wrestlers. They couldn’t even get the animal to move.

“She’s not moving,” they said before giving up.

The zoo asked its Facebook followers, “How many #NXT #WWE superstars does it take to win in a tug of war with a 2 1/2 year old lion cub?”

The answer: “Apparently more than 3!”
