John Cena's heel turn during WWE's Elimination Chamber on Saturday brought reactions from all corners of the world. Even the New York Mets reacted to what is being termed as one of the most shocking incidents in WWE history. Cena's character on WWE programming has predominantly been that of a positive babyface since his debut in the early 2000s.

He had a few runs as a heel early on, but soon his persona transformed into a saviour of the masses, and a negative angle to his character could never have been imagined.

Jared Carrabis explains to baseball fans what John Cena's heel turn means

Red Sox insider Jared Carrabis has been a follower of professional wrestling and he reacted to the events that took place in the realm on Saturday. An MLB fan had asked him if he could explain John Cena turning heel in baseball terms.

Carrabis responded with a hypothetical Mike Trout trade to explain John Cena's latest moment. In the hypothetical trade, Trout would request to be moved to the crosstown rivals, the Los Angeles Dodgers and would win everything with them while also hitting back at his critics for thinking of him as someone who couldn't win.

"Mike Trout demands a trade to the Dodgers, wins MVP and World Series MVP and then tells baseball fans to f**k off for saying he didn’t care about winning," Carrabis wrote on X explaining the moment.
