When Jon Stewart showed up in the WWE, we thought it would just be for one show and he would be gone.
But the former Daily Show host has stuck around long enough to turn heel as he attacked John Cena with a chair at SummerSlam, losing Cena the match and his shot at the WWE Championship.
Stewart appeared on WWE Raw to explain his actions, saying he “had to” interfere to prevent Cena from equalling Ric Flair’s record of 16 world titles.
The Nature Boy then came out and explained he would be proud to see Cena equal or break his record.
WOOOO!!

Cena then joined the pair in the ring, and got some revenge on Stewart as he floored the comedian with his finishing move – the attitude adjustment.
