Elias showed up to WrestleMania 35 tonight (Sun., April 7, 2019) at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, ready to play piano, the drums, and guitar, all while singing. He would be the one man band.

That’s because John Cena returned, not the Cena you’re used to but the Dr. of Thuganomics. He came out rocking the Yankees Babe Ruth jersey with the NY hat turned back, the familiar swag he had back in 2003 or so.
Word life, and all that.
ALERT.

Fun.
