WWE and cricket come together once again when the professional wrestling manager Paul Heyman responded to ICC's tweet. The international cricket body had tweeted about MS Dhoni after the former Indian cricketer finished two matches in a row for India against Australia.

Lauding the Indian cricketer, ICC wrote, "Eat.Sleep.Finish games. Repeat.  Life as @msdhoni. ????".

They received a response from Heyman, the manager of famous WWE wrestler Brock Lesner. 

Heyman was asking for royalty payments as the ICC tweet used a similar phrase matching with his client's.

"My most (in)sincere compliments to @cricketworldcup for promoting the amazing @msdhoni by paraphrasing my mantra for @WWE #UniversalChampion @BrockLesnar #EatSleepConquerRepeat. Our royalties may be paid in cash, check, stock or cryptocurrency," Heyman wrote.

Cricket World Cup came up with an offer for the two popular names of WWE. They offered Heyman and Lesner 2019 World Cup tickets, but the former had some other plan. 

"How about tickets to the @cricketworldcup for you and @BrockLesnar? ????," wrote the official account.

On which, Heyman responded, ". @cricketworldcup Thank you for your interest in expanding your global audience even further by exploiting the fame/notoriety of #YourHumbleAdvocate and the reigning defending undisputed @WWE Universal Champion @BrockLesnar. I look forward to your 8 figure appearance fee offer."
