One fan pointed out how surreal the moment seemed to them as AEW stars crossed over to thank Cena.
There's something surreal about AEW wrestlers backstage or at their hotel room cutting promos that are going to air live on #WWERAW for John Cena of all people lol.
Forbidden Door be popping off.
AEW and WWE tonight for John Cena https://t.co/0CYnl29OiR
Weird yet cool that footage of AEW Stars Big Show,Bryan Danielson and Chris Jericho was shown on RAW congratulating John Cena on his 20th Anniversary 😎
Tonight's edition of RAW certainly feels like a special night for everyone involved, especially Cena. The Cenation Leader last appeared on WWE television at SummerSlam last year when he lost to Roman Reigns. It remains to be seen who he will face off against this time around.
