The franchise player greets a special fan backstage at Saturday Night’s Main Event
Summary
– John Cena met with a young fan who has beaten cancer three times
– The legend joked that he was Joe Hendry before Joe Hendry existed
– The survivor sat ringside to witness the historic main event clash
John Cena proved once again why he is the face of the company moments before his final match. The sixteen-time World Champion took time out of his preparation to greet a young fan backstage who has beaten cancer three times. This interaction highlights the dedication Cena has shown to his fanbase throughout his two-decade run.
The Guinness World Record holder for Make-A-Wish grants lightened the mood with a joke about a current viral sensation. He told the fan that he resembles Joe Hendry, but noted that he had been doing it long before the TNA star became popular. The touching scene occurred right before Cena stepped through the curtain to face Gunther.
The young survivor was given a prime seat at ringside to watch the historic encounter unfold. Although Cena ultimately tapped out to the Ring General in the main event, his commitment to his fans remained undefeated until the very end.
The absolute best.
