Tom Brady has been immortalized in the history books. As the legendary quarterback, winner of six Super Bowl rings with the New England Patriots, was inducted into the team’s Hall of Fame at Gillette Stadium in front of more than 60,000 spectators.

The Patriots also announced that a statue of the iconic NFL star would be placed outside the stadium in a few months to ensure his immortality. Something that Brady, 46, thanked on the verge of tears for the ovation he received. But what added more fun to the night was the fact that there was a moment when the world of pro wrestling and the NFL collided.

A surprise that no one saw coming. Especially the fans. But what part did John Cena play in the induction? Well, let’s find out.

Dozens of Brady’s former teammates and coaches, spanning multiple eras of Patriots’ history were a part of the ceremony. Joining them were thousands of fans and celebrities like Jay-Z and Bon Jovi. As on Wednesday night, Brady emerged as the 35th person to enter the team’s Hall of Fame. And to kick off the night, a vignette played that showed the story of Tom Brady. From humble beginnings to becoming a legend. And the man who narrated it all to the fans was none other than John Cena. The leader of the Cenation provided the voiceover for the induction video.

On a night that felt like a Patriots family reunion, the biggest moment came just before Brady’s speech. When he met with former Patriots coach Bill Belichick. It included a prolonged ovation for Belichick. Who parted ways with the team after the 2023 season. The New England Patriots also retired the number 12 that Tom Brady wore for 20 years.

Throughout the ceremony, NFL stars congratulated the former quarterback such as New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning, the only one in the NFL to beat him in two Super Bowls. He also received messages from NFL Hall of Famers such as Ray Lewis, Jason Taylor, Ed Reed, Michael Strahan, Charles Woodson, and Payton Manning. Patrick Mahomes, quarterback of the champion Kansas City Chiefs, also took time to send a thank-you video.

Tom Brady is the NFL’s top Super Bowl winner. With seven (six with the Pats and one with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers).
