The media reacts to Jon Stewart's shocking SummerSlam actions
August 24, 2015
Former “The Daily Show” host Jon Stewart shocked the WWE Universe and the world at large Sunday night when he helped former rival Seth Rollins defeat John Cena in the Winner Takes All Match at SummerSlam. The celebrity host of SummerSlam cost the Cenation leader the contest when he rushed to the ring, struck Cena with a steel chair to the gut and then darted away. Stewart’s actions, done while the referee had been incapacitated on the outside floor, allowed Rollins to Pedigree the prone Cena onto the same chair to pick up the victory, and lay claim to both the WWE World Heavyweight and United States Championships.
News outlets exploded with reaction to Stewart's treachery on Monday, ranging from joy to outrage. However, the one common denominator seemed to be that Stewart most certainly stole the show at SummerSlam. Here's what they had to say:
