From 2005 to 2015, John Cena was unrivaled in the WWE. When he appeared on the scene, ratings and attendance skyrocketed. However, the Cenation Leader often sings the praises of other wrestlers, even if they are his toughest rivals.
While talking with Kayla Braxton on “The Bump,” John Cena discussed his retirement plan, mentioned his buddy Dwayne Johnson, and even gave props to “The Miz,” one of his hardest opponents from WrestleMania 27.
Cena provides his assessment of The Miz
John Cena’s current two-month stay with WWE is his longest with the organization in almost five years. During this time, he has appeared often on WWE shows, including the company’s chat show, The Bump.
Cena spoke to Kayla Braxton about several things, including Grayson Waller, one of WWE’s rising stars. Cena recognized parallels between Waller and The Miz, praising their wrestling prowess. Cena also lauded The Miz’s excellent performance and his WWE career of 19 years.
One of WWE’s longest-tenured performers, The Miz has already entered his 19th year with the business. His devotion and ability to change with the times have won him the respect of his colleagues, even though he hasn’t always been at the top. Booker T, a WWE Hall of Famer, once said that The Miz is one of the best wrestlers of all time. In the latest talk with Kayla Braxton, Cena shared similar opinion.
Comparing The Miz and Rising Star, the Cenation leader said, “[Grayon Waller] reminds me a whole lot of The Miz. A LOT. For all of Miz’s confidence/arrogance, he’s been here 19 years, he’s one of the most reliable, decorated, ELITE performers in WWE history.”
The duo crossed paths in WrestleMania 33 once again
Miz vs. Cena at WrestleMania 33 was one of the greatest moments in wrestling history. Many viewers were skeptical when it was announced that John Cena and Nikki Bella would be facing The Miz and Maryse in a mixed tag team battle at WrestleMania 33.
Some critics even called it a glitzy version of the SmackDown Live main event, implying that it wasn’t the greatest use of the talents involved. However, the rivalry ended up being entertaining. The WrestleMania bout itself was not anticipated to be a major event, but the buildup was fantastic.
Nikki Bella and John Cena haven’t faced The Miz and Maryse in nearly six years, since WrestleMania 33 in 2017. What made this event even more memorable was that Cena proposed to his longtime girlfriend, Nikki Bella, right after their victory in front of the WrestleMania crowd. Top of Form
