John Cena warns Roman Reigns that he will embarrass him

John Cena was in his prime game when he came out to cut a promo in response to Roman Reigns’ denial of his SummerSlam challenger. First, John Cena pointed out that it was stupid for Reigns to say that he doesn’t want to fight the 16 time WWE Champion because he felt there was no change in Cena for over two decades.

Cena then responded by pointing out that it would have been a tragedy if Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock completely changed their gimmick even after being the best in the business.

John then mocked Roman Reigns by stating that he had to keep changing his character, as the crowd never cared for him and believed in him. Cena called Reigns as nothing more than a lazy stooge named Joe who is afraid to fail. However, Cena was in top gear when he stated Reigns didn’t reject him for how he looked but instead, for how he would make the tribal chief look at the SummerSlam.

Baron Corbin interrupts Cena

This was interesting. Baron Corbin entered the ring as soon as John Cena finished his promo. The former Intercontinental Champion received significant heat from the Minneapolis crowd as he requested help from John Cena.

Corbin then added that he suffered an injury to a very sensitive part due to the outcome of a backstage segment on last week’s Smackdown. The duo had a hilarious exchange as John made a few jokes about his injury. Cena then asked the fans whether he should help the poor Corbin, to which the majority of fans said no.
