The 16-time World Champion punched his ticket to WrestleMania 41 as he won the Men's Elimination Chamber match. Cena was in the ring when The Rock came out with Travis Scott to demand an answer from Cody Rhodes. The American Nightmare refused to sell out, which led to one of the most shocking moments in pro wrestling history. Cena turned heel to align with The Final Boss and attacked Rhodes, with Rock and Travis Scott also joining in.

"He flew in today, this morning from Budapest. He’s flying out right now to Africa to continue [movie shooting]. That’s the level of commitment. I told him as he left, we say two things in wrestling vernacular. He said, ‘Thank you for the house.’ I said, ‘I’m proud of you.’"

Cena last worked as a heel in 2003. He went on to become one of WWE's biggest babyfaces in the subsequent years before becoming a Hollywood star.
