This year's women's NCAA tournament provided some of the most widely discussed sports moments of 2023, as Iowa guard Caitlin Clark alternated between throttling opponents on the court and taunting them off of it.
However, current LSU and former Louisville guard Hailey Van Lith suggested Monday that there was more to Clark’s gestures than met the eye—especially her use of WWE legend John Cena’s famous “You can’t see me gesture” in the Elite Eight against the Cardinals.
“Right after the game I texted her and I was like, ‘The media is dumb.’ I’m sorry. They just make stuff up and they just put it all over the Internet and everyone thinks it’s true,” Van Lith told Taylor Rooks of Bleacher Report. “We were laughing about it because she did it to her strength coach. She didn’t do it to anyone on our team, especially me.”
