Raw Recap with Sam Roberts and Megan Morant
An RKO for the Last Real Champion: Raw Recap

When I first came up, actually, my very first thing on the main roster was during the Slammys 2012. I attacked John Cena, leave him laying, with Dolph Ziggler and AJ Lee. Shout out to those folks. I miss them. So I was there. Every night when Dolph was in the ring, I was there for a Steel Cage Madison Square Garden match the day after Christmas. I saw the impact of when John Cena was in his prime.

We have great pops now. And I'm telling you, that reaction every single night was incredible. And I can never take anything away from John because of what he's done, all the make wishes, all the contributions. But to say that... The reason I'm carrying myself the way I am now is because of you people, the fans. When he gave so much, but they gave him so much in return.

And I have a hard time, that doesn't sit right with me, that this is the reason that we're seeing this version of John Cena. But what is undeniable is that he is indeed a 17-time world champion. He stands alone at the very top. And Ric Flair, that tie with Ric Flair is no longer there. It is him, it's 17 times.

But my hope is, it sounds like his intention is to leave with this championship and go home when all his dates are up. And that does indeed ruin wrestling. We wanna see the WWE Championship defended on TV regularly. We wanna see it at every PLE. And again, I feel bad because Cody Rhodes is getting lost in this discussion so much.

An RKO for the Last Real Champion: Raw Recap

And I know we didn't see an appearance from him tonight, and we're recapping Raw. But I'd be remiss if I didn't talk about the man who has gone above and beyond, who stays an hour after shows to shake hands, to kiss babies, to sign autographs. All the things that he does off screen, in the ring. He has truly been a workhorse for WWE, and much in the same way that John was for WWE.

20 years, essentially. And that's what, selfishly, I will never begrudge anyone for taking a part-time schedule. If it's given to you, if you have the chance to accept it, do your thing. But I miss the workhorse. I miss a workhorse champion. I want a guy who is here every single week doing his thing. And that is not John Cena's intention whatsoever.

He's wearing it backwards. It's as if he's leaving everything behind him. That's what it feels like. He has the towel behind him. He has the face of the title also on his behind. Everything. It's like he can't wait to leave this all behind him. And look, if you want to go on to do other things and kill it in Hollywood, Peacemaker, all the things that come with that, do your thing. But-
