The SmackDown star is part of the fearsome Viking Raiders tag team duo with hairy pal Erik.
But long ago Ivar went by a different name in the ring – Hanson.
And he sent fans’ heads spinning when he responded to a throwback post on Twitter about his 2005 WWE Velocity match-up with Doug Basham.
Ivar shared the old-school pic with the simple caption: “Oh, WOW.”
And followers were quick to respond, with fellow WWE superstars even getting in on the act.
Fan Mikonotron wrote: “One of your turkey legs is larger than that handsome young fella.”
AwsomeBayBee joked: “Can’t wait for Mattel to make that into a figure.”
