WWE Superstar, John Cena closed out Monday Night Raw in Philadelphia with a cover of “Fly Eagles Fly”.

Everybody in the city of brotherly love is bleeding green this week. Monday was officially the beginning of Super Bowl LII week. NFL Network broadcasted the introductions of the two teams while media reporters had an hour to fire questions at a majority of the players and coaches on both teams.

Meanwhile, in Philadelphia, the Wells Fargo Center was hosting a WWE event for the third night in a row. After one of the biggest wrestling events, the Royal Rumble, WWE went back to their regular scheduled programming with Monday Night Raw. Despite the event being completely irrelevant to football, Philadelphia Eagles fans in the crowd making sure that any sporting event is filled with Eagles love.

During the three-night marathon of wrestling, there were plenty of incidents that had a connection to the Super Bowl. Multiple Eagles chants broke out in the crowd. And by multiple, we mean a ton. Signs could be spotted in the crowd dissing the New England Patriots. Even some chants were yelled out dissing the Patriots quarterback, Tom Brady. But one of WWE’s biggest stars, John Cena decided to get in on the action and actually sung the Eagles fight song!

Fly Eagles Fly!

Eagles-mania:

Now that was awesome! Although Cena was born in Massachusetts, he has shown nothing but love to the Eagles this weekend. This could probably be due to the fact that his fiance, Nikki Bella is a big Eagles fan along with her twin sister, Brie. So good job on the Bella twins converting one of the world’s biggest wrestling name into being an Eagles fan even though they are playing a team from Massachusetts.

The Patriots may be the favorite in Vegas this week but plenty of people have taken a liking to the underdogs this time around. There have been many reports of multi-million dollar bets for the Eagles. It seems like pretty much everybody that doesn’t live in or around Boston or Minnesota is pretty much rooting for the Eagles. Unless somebody is a fan of the NFC East. They probably just won’t watch the Super Bowl this season.
