Cena’s big moment came during Elias’s portion of WrestleMania. We all know Elias’ concert would be interrupted, but no one knew by who. However, after a clip of Babe Ruth played, Cena’s old Thuganomics theme song hit and the stadium exploded with glee. Cena proceeded to then roast Elias with a new batch of rhymes even mentioning a heel turn.

Would anyone honestly be mad if Cena went back to this gimmick for a run?

The segment ended with Cena giving an FU—not an AA—to Elias and taking a victorious stroll up the WrestleMania ramp. People are already begging to know if this version of Cena is here to stay, but right now we’ll just have to enjoy the moment.
