Pueblo County High School made a teen's wish come true as 14-year-old Jesus Lucero, who has a rare form of epilepsy, got to see WWE wrestler John Cena and attend a wrestling event after the school held an assembly on March 19.

The school and its fundraisers raised over $3,200 to support Jesus and other local kids with wish grants.
