The Miz defeated John Cena at WrestleMania 27 to retain the WWE Championship. The Rock was the host of The Show of Shows that year and got involved in the match to help The A-Lister emerge victorious. The 45-year-old has been furious that he was not involved in John Cena's retirement tour and interrupted the show last night.

However, R-Truth and Joe Hendry interrupted, beating him down as the crowd cheered. The former champion took to Instagram today to reveal the hidden meaning behind his attire at SNME. He shared that it was the jacket he wore to the ring for his match against Cena at WrestleMania 27 and noted that it still fit.
