John Cena talked about Dwayne Johnson not seeing eye to eye with him in the past.
The ‘Fast X‘ star said he had a rough patch when Dwayne Johnson commented about the sports entertainment business in 2012.
“I got selfish and me – living WWE at the point and not having any concept of growth or someone else’s perspective – I took Dwayne’s comments as not genuine,” he recalled.
The “Dr of Thuganomics” said his retort to “The People’s Champ” haunted him instead.
Moreover, John Cena said he was jealous of not having the main event status as Dwayne Johnson.

“I just got selfish and wanted a main event marquee match because it would better what I thought was the business,” he said. “That was short-sighted and selfish. It worked!”
He added: “But it worked at the cost of two people who communicated and almost put it in jeopardy. There was a moment where there was a lot of bad vibes between us and rightfully so.”
