No one saw that coming. Picture John Cena letting out a demonic grin while standing beside The Rock inside a WWE ring. That’s not wishful imagining, let alone a fantasy. At the Elimination Chamber PLE on Saturday, The Cenation Leader triumphed inside the chain-linked steel structure, last eliminating CM Punk. What followed that was nothing short of insanity.

Rhodes came out to confront Cena, and before they could get their shtick in, The Rock, accompanied by Travis Scott, made their way out. The Final Boss told Cody that if he accepted his offer, The American Dream would live forever, or else it’d die. Rhodes claimed that his soul was no longer his because he’d already handed it over to the WWE Universe.

Answering to Rock’s manipulative promises, Cody said, “Rock, go f**k yourself.” It made John chuckle out of apparent admiration for the Undisputed WWE Champion. But little did everyone know that their so-called hero, Cena, was about to hand them the biggest shocker of their wrestling fandom.

The Franchise Player, while hugging Cody, was signaled by Rock the neck-slitting gesture, and it was unprecedented. John proceeded to low blow Rhodes, and eventually the beatdown was underway. The Babe Ruth of WWE snapped and decked Cody’s skull with multiple smashes courtesy of the WWE belt.

Rapper Travis Scott also joined the party along with Cena, and they rendered Rhodes impotent for a Final Boss onslaught.The Great One spanked an already-grounded Cody with his custom weight belt. At that point, the former AEW EVP was already bleeding near his eyebrows. The entire Toronto Skydome was dumbfounded over what they had just witnessed. The upcoming weeks of WWE programming are bound to be must-see.

A number of folks opined that John Cena‘s heel turn was more shocking than Steve Austin joining forces with Vince McMahon at WrestleMania 17. Folks aren’t holding back at all to paint Cena’s alliance with The Rock as more shocking than Hulk Hogan joining the New World Order, that too by a landslide.

One user also posted a hilariously smirking photo of WWE CCO Triple H, demanding an apology from those who’ve been doubting his booking decisions of late. All in all, the follow-up to this masterpiece of a closing angle to Elimination Chamber is highly awaited by the fans. The road to WrestleMania 42 just went up a notch.
