Grapple fans have been left in stitches after social media users pointed out England striker’s doppelganger showing up in vintage WWE.
Sporting a moustache and singlet, Collins is the absolute spit of Kane.
Twitter account Wrestling Memes – run by UK grapple fan Tom Anstey – pointed out the resemblance much to the amusement of social media.
The post was liked more than 1,500 times and received almost 600 retweets on social media.
"Harry Kane is my favourite wrestler from the 80s,” he wrote, though the match actually appears to be from the 90s.

Kane is ever so slightly more well known than Collins – and the resemblance has tickled wrestling fans.
The Tottenham star has previously spoken of watching WWE as a kid, and is often compared to his wrestling namesake The Undertaker’s brother Kane.
They also pointed out his tag team partner Freedom appears to resemble Eugene from the Walking Dead.
It was also suggested he looks like movie star John Travolta or serial killer Fred West.

One fan said “is that his dad?” and another added “Harry Kane, he pins when he wants”.
Others said “that is brilliant” and “that gotta be Harry Kane’.
"Harry looks condfident but Mike Freedom has the look of a man who knows he is about to be squished,” said another.
Kane has not confirmed or denied whether he is in fact actually a WWE wrestler from the 90s.

Profightdb – an online archive of wrestling matches – reveals the screenshot appears to have come from WWF Superstars Of Wrestling.
The match happened on April 8, 1992, and saw Kane’s doppelganger, along with his partner Mike Freedom, beaten by The Beverly Brothers.
It reveals Collins had some high profile matches on WWE – taking on The Undertaker, Bam Bam Bigelowe and Razor Ramon.
He never won a match, however, and stopped appearing after being beaten by Ramon in 1994.
