John Cena’s WrestleMania 42 weekend included at least one memorable moment that television viewers never got to see.
While at ringside during the event, Cena was encouraged by San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle, who had been chugging beers throughout the show, to join in. Off-camera, Cena obliged and chugged a beer himself, giving fans in attendance a moment that never made the broadcast.
Cena served as the host of both nights of WrestleMania 42 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, marking his first WWE television appearance since his retirement match against Gunther at Saturday Night’s Main Event in December. He opened each night’s show, announced the attendance figures, and was in the ring on night one when Bianca Belair revealed her pregnancy and on night two during Danhausen’s surprise segment.
The off-camera beer moment added another layer to what was already a celebratory return weekend for the 17-time world champion in his new role as a fan and host rather than a competitor.
