Cody Rhodes: It's A Big Rule To Not Talk Into The Camera, That's John Cena's Thing

When John Cena makes his entrance, fans will notice him looking at the camera, mentioning Stu, giving a salute, and running to the ring.

Only John Cena is allowed to get away with that one.

"When I went away and came back I was allowed to bring everything back with me, including breaking a lot of the pre-existing rules," Rhodes told SPORTbible. "We're out of the frame of looking at monitors sideways now. You know, what's still a pretty big on-air rule but it's good for production purposes, is not to talk into the camera. That's John's thing. John looks at the camera and mentions Stu the cameraman, runs to the ring. I don't want to see anyone, including myself, do it - and I probably have done at some point. But that's his [thing] and that's the reason why it's a rule - until somebody beats him and then it's his."

When Cena points to the camera and gives a shoutout to Stu, that means its time to go to work.

Cena is set to embark on his retirement tour in 2025. Fans can learn more by clicking here.
