According to PWInsider, John Cena seemed fine backstage after the show. After SmackDown went off the air, he also did a spot where he put Baron Corbin through the announce table, but he looked a little stiff during it.

Austin Aries, who had his orbital bone broken by Nakamura last year, posted this:

I feel ya @JohnCena. On the bright side, at least @ShinsukeN didn't break your eyehole too. #Respect #SmackDownLIVE pic.twitter.com/DSROzqqc02

Kevin Owens had this to say:

Those freaking out over @JohnCena's rough landing must have missed the fact that he was revealed to be an actual transformer the day before.

Cena then responded to Owens’ tweet:

Did kinda tip my hand there. I know U can't C me, but there's #Morethanmeetstheeye much #Respect to @ShinsukeN good luck at #SummerSlam @WWE https://t.co/CqhYy4NJoz
