The Newest Invitee to the John Cena Classic Is...

"We have to hit our time, Stu. Let's go to work," Cena said as he came through the curtain and took off down the aisle and to the ring to kick off Friday's show.

A red-hot crowd awaited him, hanging on every word.

Cena ran down his spiel about the John Cena Classic and said the biggest Superstars, the fans, would have their chance to have their voices heard through their votes.

He introduced the next invitee to the event: Charlotte Flair.

The Queen arrived to a big reaction and joined her fellow future Hall of Famer in the squared circle.

"John, I don't know if you know this, but I am my father's daughter so I tend to get a little emotional," Flair started before recalling how often she tried to get in a storyline with Cena.

Setting the Stage

Earlier today, Cody Rhodes arrived to the arena on the heels of his Last Man Standing Match win over Randy Orton at Crown Jewel.

Undisputed WWE Champion Sami Zayn arrived, as did the backstabbing Tiffany Stratton.

The fallout from Crown Jewel, and build toward Survivor Series: War Games, kicks off now!
