John Cena Chugs A Beer At The Encouragement Of George Kittle

John Cena hosted both nights for WrestleMania 42, returning to WWE TV for the first time since his retirement match in December.

On both nights, Cena opened the show to welcome the crowd to the event, and came out before the main event to announce the attendance. On night one, he stood in the ring while Bianca Belair announced her pregnancy. On night two, he witnessed Danhausen.

It wasn’t shown on television, but John Cena also chugged a beer at the encouragement of San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle, who was chugging beers all weekend during WrestleMania.
