On Saturday, March, 1st at WWE's most recent live event, Elimination Chamber, rapper Travis Scott showed up to team with The Rock and John Cena in one of the most shocking events in wrestling history.
After John Cena won the men's Elimination Chamber match, Scott (carrying around his personalized WWE Hardcore Championship), walked out with The Rock to Scott's hit song "FE!N". They both joined Cena and the WWE Champion Cody Rhodes in the ring, where Cena shockingly turned on Rhodes, attacking him out of no where. Scott joined Cena and The Rock to attack Rhodes, smacking Rhodes across the mouth. The three men then left the ring together.

This is one of the most notable moments in wrestling history because it's the first time in 20 years where Cena has "turned heel", AKA: become the bad guy. This is also Cena's last year as a professional wrestler, making the turn that much more shocking. While many fans were in awe of the moment, some have actually started to critique the segment because of the appearance of Scott, scratching their heads wondering why he was there at all. They felt that he was a little out of place being a part of this groundbreaking moment.
