As far as handshakes are concerned, there are several from throughout history that are iconic, most of which pertain to politics. However, among that list is the handshake between Arnold Schwarzenegger and Carl Weathers in Predator, which is by far the most iconic pop culture handshake.
And as far as video games are concerned, nothing is more iconic than the handshake between Cyclops and Ryu in the X-Men vs. Street Fighter intro.
In many ways, it is THE definitive video game handshake, and it's been faithfully recreated for the box art of the upcoming Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics.
Now, it looks like we'll be able to add another signature handshake to the list of all-time iconics list. That's because, in a new Fortnite trailer, Jonesy and Cyclops have recreated that handshake as part of the battle royale's newest chapter reveal. The end result is a handshake for the ages, featuring arguably the most popular game of this generation, along with a pop culture staple in Cyclops.
