John Cena has recently opened up about his famous rivalry with Dwayne Johnson, revealing that it was his own comments that violated his pal's trust and jeopardized their friendship. During a recent WWE press conference, Cena admitted that he was wrong to doubt The Rock's decision to pursue acting opportunities, and he was only trying to do what he thought was best for the industry.
‘I 100% see and understand that perspective,’ he said. ‘I went about it the wrong way and violated his trust. Deep down, I was a fan. I wanted The Rock back. 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.’
The pair have since reconciled and recently appeared in the tenth installment of the Fast and Furious franchise together, although they did not share any scenes. John also revealed that he apologized to both Dwayne and his mother after his comments first emerged.
‘She forgave me right there and then as soon as that embrace broke, it was right at Rock’s dressing room and I went right into Rock and I said the exact same thing,’ he said on the 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.’
John and Dwayne's feud has been a source of intrigue for years, and they have both learned valuable lessons along the way. After all, their differences were eventually set aside and the pair were able to work together in a professional capacity. It just goes to show that sometimes, you can put aside your differences and work together for the greater good.
