John Cena Violated Dwayne Johnson’s Trust During Their WWE Feud
John Cena recently talked about his now-infamous WWE feud with Dwayne Johnson which led to a real-life beef between the two superstars. Cena revealed that he is the one to blame and he became a hypocrite and a disrespectful individual to convince Johnson to stay in the WWE instead of becoming an actor. He said, (viaVariety)
“If you’ve been following what I’ve tried to do, especially as of late, publicly and personally to Dwayne Johnson, I’ve stated that although I thought I was trying to do what’s best for business,” Cena said about starting the feud. “I went about it the wrong way. I violated his trust and I made allegations about his perspective that I knew nothing about. And deep down, I was a fan. I wanted The Rock back [in WWE]. I wanted to do anything to get The Rock back, but I did it the wrong way.”
I didn’t do it the respectful way, so I had to eat a little bit of crow. I had to say ‘I’m sorry and I was wrong,’ because I am sorry and I was wrong, and that’s a very humbling experience. Dwayne is a hell of a guy… I became who I despised. I see that perspective and I understand it. It was a great learning experience from my mistake with feuding with The Rock.”
The two superstars recently made up their difference and hugged it out in a recent WWE appearance. Both are now among the biggest names in the industry, starring in some of the biggest movies and franchises and having several incredibly successful projects.
