Now, after John Cena walked in, Michael Cole introduced him to Pat McAfee. The former NFL star reveals how surreal of a feeling it was to meet legends who keep walking into the building.
“He walks in and he sits right behind me, right. So as soon as he sits down he’s right behind I’m like ‘I should probably not be sitting where I am at. Why is he behind me? Like I feel like, weird.’ So he comes up to shake Micheal, Cole’s hand or whatever and Micheal introduces me to him. I’m like ‘hey John Ferdinand was a banger.’ That’s literally the first thing I say. I think he was like thanks. He was super kind.”
