An emotional Cody Rhodes commented on John Cena's retirement moments after Cena exited the ring during the WWE SNME Post-Game Show.
On Cena's exit as a professional wrestler, Rhodes commented, "It’s really hard to describe, in the sense of all the positives he brought to our industry and leaving it better than we found it. Wrestling is....there’s a way it ends. He did everything right by the book, and it’s still like, when it’s that good, you don’t want it to end. I know that’s vague, but he did everything by the book and taught so many people. He set such a high standard, such a high bar. I’m not trying to get emotional on his night, but more than anything, take a moment and think about those sneakers, and the pump ups before that, and the man that filled those, and what he was able to do through good and bad times. John led with his mind. He’s a businessman, and he was trained by businessmen, and he trained us to be businessmen. So to go out here where you’ve got 19,000 people and not a soul leaves until he leaves, that’s a sign he had a great career, and we can only hope to have something like that. Hats off to the greatest of all time. Tonight, everyone was just chanting, "Let’s Go Cena"...not a "Cena sucks" chant in the house. It’s everything. I’m so happy that it happened. It’s a great, great arena with wrestling history, and I’m so glad it happened."
