We love Stone Cold Steve Austin.
We love 3:16 Day.
We love wrestling rap remixes.
So naturally, when someone put all 3 of these things together, we were like…
It has not been a good week for Kevin Owens. First, the longest reigning WWE Universal Champion lost his Universal Championship at Fastlane to Goldberg Chris Jericho’s interference.
Then, Owens was scheduled to face Brock Lesnar at WWE’s SmackDown brand live event on March 12th at Madison Square Garden. If you’ve seen a Brock Lesnar match in the past few years, you know his matches are quick and painful. But Kevin Owens was prepared for the worst.

So, how did Owens do against Lesnar? Well…
It’s hard to stay angry at John Cena. Sure, there was a time when it was real issue. The “Spoiler Alert: I win LOL” Cena was real easy to boo him, melodically.
But in the last few years, John Cena really has turned a corner. He’s put on arguably one of the best matches of the year against AJ Styles at Royal Rumble 2017. He’s tied Ric Flair’s record of the most number of World Championship Title wins. He’s with Nikki Bella out of the ring and on reality TV, Total Bellas. He’s established his career outside of the ring too, shooting movies, voicing a pistachio loving pachyderm, hosting television shows like the ESPYS and Saturday Night Live. John Cena’s… happy!
For those who didn’t watch Super Bowl 51, you missed quite the pro wrestling comeback. The New England Patriots came back from a 25 point deficit to defeat The Atlanta Falcons in overtime (First overtime ever), 34-28. It was the closest thing the NFL has had to a John Cena match.
Despite the Cena-style ending, Super Bowl 51 was not about New England’s John Cena vs. “The Guy from Atlanta.” The best wrestling reaction came from New Day Members Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods.
The Royal Rumble has come and gone. Randy Orton won the 30-Man Royal Rumble match, and the opportunity to face the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion, John Cena at WrestleMania 33.*
While that is great for Cena and Orton, there was a brief few minutes in the Royal Rumble match where fans thought the end result would be different. Fans and card carrying members of the WWE Universe waited with bated breath to see who would be number 30. Would it be a surprise return like Finn Balor? A surprise call up from Samoa Joe? Kane for another Brothers of Destruction reunion?
Nope. Instead, we got Roman Reigns.
