Kaitlyn looks back on her match with AJ Lee at WWE Payback 2013, noting that John Cena told them to ‘never do that again.’
At WWE Payback 2013, Kaitlyn and AJ Lee would face off for the WWE Divas Championship, with AJ walking away with the victory and her first championship in WWE, kickstarting a lengthy reign as champion that would break records.
While speaking to Rewind, Recap, Relive in a recent interview, Kaitlyn recalled the pair going over on their time, noting that when they got to the back, John Cena told them to ‘never do that again’ after they went into his match time.
“What’s funny about that match is we went over on our time and you never do that on a pay-per-view. They told us to go home. We probably still had two minutes left, maybe two and a half minutes left of like to really tell the story, and so the ref tells us like, ‘you need to take it home, take it home, take it home.’ We were used to getting our time cut because people’s matches ran over, you know? So there’s usually always the divas that they cut. The ref tells us and AJ’s like, ‘no,’ and so we were both down selling and she was like, ‘let’s keep going.’ I was like, ‘okay.’ The crowd was insane. I was crying, and when we got back into Gorilla, Cena was back there, and because Cena’s match was still up. So we cut into Cena’s match, and he was like, ‘never do that again.’ But he was like, ‘great match.'”
