The rock interrupted the festivities and joined the two Wrestlemania 41 opponents in the ring.
The rock Asked Rhodes if he would be “his champion” and “sell his soul” to him. Rhodes turned to the “last boss” and said he had to go “f — yourself.” Cena seemed to be enthusiastic about what happened, as the crowd was in Toronto.
