In-Ring Segment: John Cena
Mr. McMahon introduces John Cena. The locker room is lined up on the ramp. Cena runs to the ring to a deafening ovation. Cena says today is his WWE birthday. He couldn’t think of a better place to have his bday. He has never been one to celebrate milestones because he likes to focus on what’s next. Tonight is different. It’s not about any moment or match. Tonight has everything to do with the WWE Universe.
This 20-year anniversary is important to him because the WWE Universe allowed him to. Cena puts over the fans, which leads to a Cena chant. He’s always wanted to say thank you. He guesses he was just waiting for the right moment and this is it. A “thank you, Cena” chant breaks out. Cena thanks the WWE Universe. Since he is 45 years old, he doesn’t know when we will see him in the ring next. Everything he does isn’t about him it’s always been about us.
