John Cena shared an honest statement about Vince McMahon recently. The Cenation Leader, who is set to make his final WWE in-ring appearance next week, was asked about McMahon during an interview.
The Chain Gang Soldier has always been open about Vince McMahon’s contribution to his career and has always had a close relationship with the former WWE CEO. Cena was a guest on the latest episode of the Joe Rogan Experience, where he shared a heartfelt statement about his relationship with Mr.McMahon.
He said that he loves Vince and that he was not downplaying the situation that McMahon is in currently. He added that he knew people would be angry about this, but they could never share the sentiment he had for Mr. McMahon. He said:
“I donâ€t care who hears it – I love Vince. Iâ€m not downplaying anything that needs to be decided or allegations of any kind, but when I love somebody, I love them wholeheartedly. I know people are going to be angry about that, but they canâ€t put their value on my relationship with somebody I love.”
John Cena Speaks About Vince McMahon’s WWE Return, Accountability
Elsewhere in the podcast, John Cena was asked about Vince McMahon’s potential return to WWE. The Cenation Leader stated that as far as he knew, McMahon was out of the company. He also revealed that the two recently had a conversation with regards to Cena’s retirement match. He said:
“No, heâ€s out… No, I — well, I donâ€t know. Again, thatâ€s way — we were talking about like, ‘Why is your last event in this place?†Iâ€m like, ‘Man, because I donâ€t choose the events.†All that stuff is so far above me, but I know now heâ€s out.”
When asked to elaborate on his feelings about McMahon being out of World Wrestling Entertainment, Cena stated that he believed in forgiveness, and looking at the contributions of McMahon, however, he added that he really didn’t have a say in the situation, given the allegations against Vince. He said:
“In my eyes, Iâ€d like to think that time heals everything. And I believe in forgiveness; I also believe in looking at the body of work. I also know there is a lot of fragile stuff going on there. I donâ€t know, man, I donâ€t know.”
Cena then stated that McMahon needed to be held accountable for his actions despite his feelings for him. He declared that the whole situation in court needed to be played out, and then a decision could be made if McMahon should be allowed back in the Stamford-based promotion. He said:
“Iâ€ve learned to become a little more accountable for what I say. And just because I feel a certain way about a person doesnâ€t exonerate them from being accountable for their actions. And just because he did start quote-unquote ‘all this gangster s***,†doesnâ€t mean he doesnâ€t need to be accountable for his actions. So letâ€s figure out what that means, and then figure out if we can move forward and bring it back in the fold or if it stays the way it is.”
