John Cena Reacts To Latest WWE Milestone

It’s a long time coming. Like him or not, there is no denying that John Cena is one of the biggest stars in wrestling history. Through a combination of incredible skills, crazy charisma, and a never ceasing work ethic, Cena has become one of the top stars WWE has ever seen. While his career has more or less ended, Cena has reached a noteworthy date in his WWE tenure.

Cena has done almost everything there is to do in WWE and that has taken place over a very long time. With a record tying sixteen World Titles, there is not much left for Cena to accomplish in the ring and that may be a big part of why he has gone off to Hollywood after a long in-ring career. After so many accomplishments in the ring, Cena is taking the time to look back and smile a bit.

Cena posted a message to his Twitter account on Saturday, reflecting on the eighteen year anniversary of his WWE debut. On the June 27, 2002 SmackDown, Cena answered an open challenge from Kurt Angle and said he was ready because of Ruthless Aggression. Cena called WWE his home and said that it always will be. Cena’s most recent WWE appearance was at WrestleMania 36 in a loss to Bray Wyatt.

Thank you for all the well wishes on the anniversary of a day I’ll never forget. @WWE is and always will be home for me. Thank you for allowing me to pursue my passion for so many years, none of it is possible without you. https://t.co/uFFmSmnEvv

It doesn’t feel a day over eighteen years ago. Check out Cena’s debut:

Opinion: I know a lot of people aren’t huge on Cena and that’s fine. The thing to remember about him though is how long he was around WWE and how big of a deal he really was for the company. Cena may be the last true superstar the company sees for a long time to come and that is a rather sad situation. I’m hoping fans remember him more fondly now that he is mostly gone, as he really was that great.
