John Cena vs. The Rock: Unveiling the Truth Behind Their Real-Life Feud
Recently, the former sixteen times WWE World Champion John Cena spoke to the Happy Sad Confused podcast where he admitted the mistakes he committed during the time. Here is what he had to say;
“Instead of going like, ‘Hey man, I’d like to try to do this thing to hook you back in and maybe we can collaborate and really make it big,’ I was just like, ‘Eff this, I’m calling this dude out. This is a moment. You gave me an opening. I’m going to kick the door in’.” He continued: “I understand why he got upset.”
John Cena Admits That He Got “Selfish”
“I just got selfish and wanted a main event marquee match because it would better what I thought was the business. That was short-sighted and selfish. It worked! But it worked at the cost of two people who communicated and almost put it in jeopardy,” Cena added. “There was a moment where there was a lot of bad vibes between us and rightfully so.”
“I got selfish and me living WWE at that point and not having any concept of growth or someone else’s perspective, I took Dwayne’s comments as not genuine and my view was if you love something, be there every day. What a hypocrite I am because I still love WWE and I can’t go all the time and I just didn’t see that.” He told Josh Horowitz’s Happy Sad Confused podcast.
“Rightfully so because Dwayne came back and he wanted to give to the business, openly and as what he could. He has a great perception of WWE and understands that you build equity, you go to something else and you pass the torch,”
