LAS VEGAS – John Cena stormed into the post-WrestleMania 41 press conference on Sunday night and threw Cody Rhodes’ name plates onto the ground as he placed the Undisputed WWE Championship onto the podium.
He told reporters he was trying to build a better relationship with the press as he moved forward in his pro wrestling career. However, Cena refused to answer any questions reporters threw at him and decried each one as a “clickbait question.”

“You that seems like a clickbait question,” he said in response to a question about his mindset as he accomplished the feat of winning his 17th WWE title. “I’m beginning to sense a pattern there, that you guys are just searching for headlines. So, I’ll give you one.
“Tune into ‘Monday Night Raw’ to see how I ruin wrestling. And keep in mind, you are talking to the last real champion. Step your game up next time.”
