25 WTF Moments From WWE WrestleMania 31

9. John Cena's Embarrassingly Patriotic Entrance

Giving Triple H's WTF entrance a pretty decent run for its money is the opening video package to John Cena's entrance, an assortment of cringe-worthy "America, f*** yeah!" clips including footage of Ronald Reagan praising the U.S., clips of the Golden Gate Bridge being built, the Moon landing, Steve Jobs holding an iPhone, Facebook, Jackie Robinson, Martin Luther King, Rosa Parks, Barack Obama, George W. Bush, 9/11, and Abraham Lincoln. Even ignoring how tasteless it is to compare the Rusev-Cena fight to the War on Terror, it's pretty painful for anyone outside the U.S. to watch, and the staggering lack of self-awareness on the WWE's part with this whole angle is just stunning.
