Several Hollywood stars, former WWE legends, and current roster members were in attendance at Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C., to witness John Cena’s retirement match at Saturday Night’s Main Event.

Among those seated ringside were several WWE veterans, Michelle McCool, Mark Henry, Eve Torres, Sami Zayn, Trish Stratus, Kurt Angle, and Rob Van Dam. The event was also attended by Hollywood actor Jon Bernthal and music artist Metro Boomin.

The show also featured the return of several iconic WWE personalities, including Jesse Ventura, Michelle McCool, and Eve Torres, marking a rare gathering of notable names from different eras.

The majority of the names present in attendance for Cena’s final bout share a vivid history with him. Kurt Angle, Henry, and RVD are widely remembered for their iconic rivalry against the 17-time World Champion, while Eve Torres once shared a storyline romantic angle with Cena.

Earlier in the night, several WWE and non-WWE pro-wrestlers and veterans also made sure to pay their respect to Cena.
