A recent TikTok video of WWE legend John Cena and Rhea Ripley interacting backstage is going viral on Twitter, and fans have been reacting to it in droves.
Cena stunned the London fans when he showed up unannounced at Money in the Bank 2023. He received a thunderous reception from the crowd and went on to tease a future WrestleMania event in the city. The 16-time WWE world champion was then interrupted by Grayson Waller. After a fun back-and-forth, Cena took him down with an Attitude Adjustment, which again made the fans erupt in joy.
As for Rhea Ripley, though she didn't defend her Women's World Championship at MITB, she was at ringside during Dominik Mysterio's match against Cody Rhodes. Despite her best efforts to help her Judgment Day stablemate win, Dominik eventually fell short, with The American Nightmare picking up the victory.

WWE CCO Triple H on how John Cena's return at Money in the Bank came to be
During the post-MITB press conference, Triple H revealed that John Cena's WWE return wasn't planned much ahead in advance. He added that Cena was free that afternoon and simply wanted to have a chat with the fans. The Game also mentioned how it's good to be taken by surprise occasionally.
"John Cena [had] nothing to do in the afternoon, thought he'd pop by here and just say hello. I know he said it all out there, why he's here, why he did this and is here for that. But, truth be told, every now and then in life, you just need a shot of adrenaline." [31:43 – 32:00]
The Cenation Leader is not scheduled to make more appearances anytime soon. However, WWE has already planted seeds for Cena's potential match against Grayson Waller, which could materialize whenever the veteran's schedule frees up.
