John Cena hosted NBC’s Saturday Night Live for the first time ever this weekend and kicked off the show with Bobby Moynihan as Santa Clause in his opening monologue. Cena was then confronted by Leslie Jones in pro wrestling mode.
Cena appeared in several sketches throughout the show, playing characters such as Fabio, New England Patriot Rob Gronkowski, Johnny from The Karate Kid, WWE Hall of Famer and President-elect Donald Trump and others.
Below are several photos and video from Cena on SNL:
