The story of John Cena is the story of a wrestling era, a generation of WWE connecting to a younger audience through the story of a hero that would never give up.

Despite fan sentiment in the building on Saturday, John Cena's final WWE match ended exactly how it should've. Now the challenge is to not drop the ball.

On the June 27, 2002 edition of WWE SmackDown, Cena made his WWE debut by answering Angle’s open challenge. When Angle asked him what quality he possessed that made him think he could wrestle Angle, Cena responded, “Ruthless Aggression,” before slapping Angle in the face to start the match.

The Miz and Evans had a match after a heated moment backstage set it up earlier in the show. The A-Lister had control for the first couple of moves, but the high-flyer sent him out of the ring and hit a beautiful moonsault.

John Cena wrestled his last match at WWE Saturday Night's Main Event, and it went down in spectacular fashion.

Wrestling legends Paul ‘Triple H’ Levesque, Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson and current WWE champion Cody Rhodes paid tribute to the 48-year-old wrestling icon
