As shown last night on Raw, AEW’s Chris Jericho, Bryan Danielson & Paul Wight were featured on RAW to share congratulations to John Cena.
Many fans were surprised to see this happen, but Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select reported some details behind how this all came about, which you can read below:
June 27’s WWE Raw saw a very unique situation, with AEW talent Paul Wight and Bryan Danielson appearing during John Cena “congratulations” videos for his 20 year anniversary. We’re told that the situation was very straightforward in making it happen. The idea was pitched, and then AEW founder Tony Khan was contacted in order to see if he’d be okay with it. Given the circumstances surrounding the videos, he was said to be okay with the videos and provided approval. A WWE source told us that they were able to land virtually everyone they hoped to for the “congrats” videos. These instances have been few and far between since AEW launched in 2019.

It’s good to see the positivity between the two companies.
