After Raw went off the air and all the mayhem cleared, CM
Punk, The Usos, and Cody Rhodes stuck around and Punk took
the lead, putting over John Cena on his final night on Raw.
“When I first came up to the main roster in 2006, John Cena
was on top. It was then a few years later joined by Cody
Rhodes and John Cena was on top. A couple years after that,
the Usos showed up on the main roster and John Cena was on
top,” Punk said.
“I’ve been to this building dozens of times from then until
now and John Cena has always been on top and tonight we all
witness history,” he continued. “A special moment, John Cena
got to perform in the world’s most famous arena in front of
the greatest fans for one more time. It’s a special moment,
it’s emotional for me, I think I can speak for everybody in
the ring, it’s emotional for all of us because when we
started here, John Cena was here, he was steering the boat.”
He said that now, Cody Rhodes is steering that same boat and
the two twins who started off doing Hakas trying to find
their way in WWE at the time are now steering the boat too.
“It’s about John Cena, thank you Cena. And it kills me to
say this because I used to have to lay here and look at the
lights and listen to that damn song,” Punk said referring to
Cena’s iconic theme song.
He then instructed the guys in the back to finish off the
night by not playing his song, but rather John Cena’s.
