Pittsburgh television reporter Ed DiOrio found a creative way to honor John Cena on the day of his final WWE match.
DiOrio, who serves as the Westmoreland County Reporter for WTAE-TV (Pittsburgh’s Action News 4), incorporated Cena’s signature catchphrases into his live weather report during a Weather Alert Day broadcast this weekend.

The tribute aired the same weekend that Cena wrestled his retirement match against Gunther at Saturday Night’s Main Event in Washington, D.C. The 17-time World Champion’s legendary 23-year WWE career came to an end when he tapped out to Gunther’s sleeper hold after a hard-fought 24-minute contest.
Cena’s iconic phrases, including “You Can’t See Me,” “The Champ Is Here,” “Never Give Up,” and “Hustle, Loyalty, Respect,” have become part of mainstream pop culture over his two-decade run as the face of WWE.
The reporter’s tribute reflects the widespread outpouring of appreciation for Cena as fans, fellow wrestlers, and celebrities honored the WWE legend throughout his farewell tour.
