Cena's a Good Guy, Pt. 23423

Per F4WOnline

Turns out that the WWE gave the Calgary crowd two nights ago a carrot after the cameras stopped rolling.
-- Also, and this is awesome, after WWE spent the entire show burying Canada they had Cena go out after the cameras stopped rolling and cut a long promo putting Bret Hart over as an awesome guy.
Of course, it's John Cena doing the mop-up work, but that's to be expected. From all accounts, Cena's a hell of a guy and as I've pointed out on here before, he is all about the fans. You can just notice it in how he carries himself inside the ring, out of it and even out of character. It's what makes criticizing his in-ring character so hard to do. Most people tire of the Superman schtick, but Cena does so much to try and make up for it, so it's a push. That's why I had to go and retract saying he was "dead to me" the day after I made the claim. Cena can never be dead to me.

Of course, they could have done a lot better by having Cena or even one of the Canadians waylay Sarge after the show, but at least they did right by the crowd in the end. Just goes to show that you can send the live crowd home happy all the time without jeopardizing a build or a heel's on-camera heat.
