John Cena has teared up talking about fellow WWE star Edge 'giving so much'.
The 46-year-old, who is widely regarded as one of the greatest professional wrestlers of all time, has released an extremely emotional statement about Adam Joseph Copeland, 49, better known by the ring name, Edge.
When discussing the former 4-time WWE champ, Cena couldn't help but fight back tears. Have a look:
It's no secret that, over his 20-year career in WWE, Cena has been no stranger to a whole bunch of ringside rivalries.
Whether that be against The Rock, Triple H or the Austin Theory - it's clear that there's one particularly memorable feud that the 16-time world champion had against a fellow wrestling legend.

Cena had a whole bunch of tussles with a WWE Hall of Famer Edge first dating back to 2006 when they locked horns in their first-ever singles match.
Edge went on to emerge as victor from the fight and, throughout the years, the two stars fought on a whole host of other occasions.
Given their colourful history together, Cena has not been shy to open up on exactly how he feels about his feuding partner.
The latest comes this week when WWE posted Cena's heartfelt statement about Edge to Twitter earlier this week on Tuesday (6 June).
