John Cena kicked off his retirement tour back in January, and it’s been interesting to say the least. Heading into Clash in Paris on Sunday, John Cena only had 9 more appearances left on his farewell tour and he faced off against Logan Paul at the premium live event.
Cena received a big ovation from the French fans and they sang his entrance music as he made his way to the ring. As soon as he got in the ring he asked for the music to be cut so he could hear the reaction from the fans.
At one point Logan Paul went for a Frog Splash, but Cena got his legs up. Cena connected with the Attitude Adjustment, but Logan Paul kicked out at two.
