Cody Rhodes believes this is the most dangerous version of John Cena that wrestling fans have seen.
In March at WWE Elimination Chamber, John Cena would do the unthinkable by turning heel on Cody Rhodes to align himself with The Rock. The two men are set to face off as the night 2 main event of WrestleMania 41 and had a heated exchange on last week's WWE RAW that led to Cody laying Cena out with Cross Rhodes.
While speaking to Gaming Bible in a new interview, Cody spoke about Cena being known as 'Big Match John', and that this is the most dangerous version of John Cena that we have seen in WWE.
“I almost made the mistake when I first encountered John after Elimination Chamber on 17 March on Raw in Brussels, Belgium when he did our first promo together since that moment. I went in with the mindset that I was facing the old John but in reality, this is a new John. They call him ‘big match John’ for a reason. He’s been in every type of pressure cooker. He’s experienced things that few have. He’s a master. But this John having it all on the line is the most dangerous version we’ve ever seen. Typically, I’d approach John smiling and I’d shake his hand with this being a teacher vs student moment. He’s also one of my heroes. Regardless, I have the unenviable task of beating John Cena in his last WrestleMania match when he’s going for the record of 17 world championships. This is my job and I’m very much looking forward to it however events may play out.”
