 Well, I think over the weekend, one of the special things with John is John was with WWE, the face of WWE, the quarterback of it all throughout a period of time where things like this weren’t happening. And he really just carried it almost through the wilderness. And now the fact that he can be there when we’re doing our first twoight SummerSlam, when a few days later we’re announcing this wonderful connection with ESPN, I’m glad he gets to see all that because he always put it all in his hands. And for him to be able to know, hey, it’s okay. They’re growing. It’s getting even bigger and I can I can walk away at peace is a great thing for someone like him for all that he did tonight.

In his time with the ESPN journalist, Cody Rhodes expressed a lot of things. The most exciting was his respect for the 17-time world champion John Cena.
