Ric Flair is widely regarded as one of the greatest wrestlers of all time. He has won multiple world championships across multiple promotions. The Nature Boy is also a 16-time world champion, much like Cena.
Tonight on the blue brand, Cena made his return to SmackDown after several months away from the company. He started his promo by showing gratitude towards the fans for their unconditional support.
However, Cena was interrupted by Jimmy Uso, who didn't seem pleased to see the legend back in WWE. However, the former WWE Champion got the better of Jimmy when he said that the wrong Uso left the company. Jimmy tried to superkick him, but Cena countered it and hit the Attitude Adjustment.

Sunil admires former world champions AJ Styles, Will Ospreay, and Kenny Omega for their ability to consistently deliver great matches as well as entertain crowds with their mic skills.
If ever given a chance to change a storyline, Sunil would have booked Roman Reigns to end The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak instead of Brock Lesnar. According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
