16-time world champion John Cena on RAW

Former WWE Tag Team Champion Taz recently took to Twitter to praise John Cena on his 20th anniversary in the company.

The Cenation Leader made his WWE television debut on the June 27, 2002, episode of SmackDown against Kurt Angle. Over the next decade and a half, he carried the company as the undisputed top guy, winning 16 world titles in the process.

Multiple legends and superstars have congratulated Cena for achieving the milestone of 20 years in WWE. AEW personality Taz also joined in on the activities and said the celebration for the former world champion was "well deserved."

"Well deserved celebration for @JohnCena. I remember when he started in WWE, he worked very hard, was humble & very positive everytime I was around him for years. I’ve called many of his matches & saw his evolution rapidly rise. Just a really good dude…Congrats John!" wrote Taz.

@OfficialTAZ @JohnCena Very classy, Taz. Your commentary helped make Cena Cena.

Cena appeared on this week's RAW for the first time since his loss to Roman Reigns at SummerSlam 2021. He had multiple backstage segments with top superstars, including one with the current United States Champion Theory.

John Cena also cut a heartfelt promo later in the show, where he thanked the fans for supporting him throughout his career. The 16-time world champion said that he will compete again in the future, but he is not sure when.

With Theory confronting Cena on RAW, it will be interesting to see if a match is booked between the two superstars for the United States Title, possibly at this year's SummerSlam.
