John Cena shared an emotional message on social media after becoming the Intercontinental champion last night on WWE RAW. The 48-year-old appeared for one final time in his hometown of Boston, Massachusetts, last night on the red brand.

Dominik Mysterio interrupted John Cena's promo last night on WWE RAW, and it led to a match, Cena connected with an Attitude Adjustment for the pinfall win to clinch the Intercontinental Championship for the first time in his legendary career.

The Grand Slam Champion took to social media today to share an emotional message after his massive win on RAW in front of his hometown crowd.

"Thank you Boston. It meant so much to be able, for one last time, to be allowed an opportunity to do what I love, in a place I love, surrounded by those I love. Our performances are only meaningful if YOU the audience invest in us and decide they are. The smile on my face and awe in my eyes in this small clip is an honest show of grateful disbelief & appreciation for all you’ve ever invested in me. Last night meant more than I can ever express. Thank you Boston," he wrote.

 

 

There is currently a "Last Time is Now" tournament going on to decide Cena's final opponent next month at Saturday Night's Main Event. Sheamus and Rusev advanced in the tournament during last night's episode of RAW.
