While everyone was in a festive mood, Hugh Jackman (along with some help for Jake Gyllenhaal) decided to pull Ryan Reynolds’ leg. And by Reynolds’ own admission, they successfully did it by making him wear one of the ugliest sweaters in existence.
Now, since making a joke out of someone is a cyclical exercise, it was only a matter of time that Jackman would end up at the receiving end of things. And so it did through Ryan Reynolds’ internet-savvy, anti-superhero persona, Deadpool!
Deadpool arrived on Twitter to share his take on the now-trending “Ten Year Challenge” and applied the sickest of burns on Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine. See for yourself.
Hey @RealHughJackman, took care of your "Ten Year Challenge" for you. pic.twitter.com/pQZq1dfvPr

As Deadpool was on a roll, he took down Colossus as well.
…don’t think I forgot about you, Colossus. (@StefanKapicic)

While most of the fandom was in splits, some felt that Deadpool was chidkao-ing namak on the ghao. Here are some of the reactions:

Given how Hugh Jackman has retired from the role of Wolverine, and given how the Disney-Fox merger might complicate things even further, we might never get a Logan-Deadpool movie. Toh isiliye ye Twitter banter se kaam chala lo.
