Kevin Nash comments on John Cena's heel turn.
The topic of John Cena's heel turn has been a major talking point for the world of wrestling for nearly a month at this point, with conversation ramping back up after Cena's viral promo on the March 17 edition of Raw.
On the latest edition of his Kliq This podcast, Nash talked about the turn and said that it would be great if Cena retired as a heel.
“The thing about the Cena situation is, I read something today on a comment somewhere, was you know the Cena run has an expiration date. That changes everything.

“If he wants it. When John comes back, if I’m in charge and John comes to me and he says, ‘I want to do a retirement thing,’ I don’t know if it was pitched, if Paul said, ‘Hey, what do you think about a heel turn before you go out the back door,’ and John says, ‘Yeah, as long as we rectify it.’ When it comes down to it, it can always be a situation where it’s that last night, and something’s going down, and it’s the old Popeye. ‘It’s all I can stand because I stand no more,’ and he comes back to his senses. But people are a lot smarter than they used to be when it comes to wrestling. They’re gonna want this tied up in a bow. If you turn him and he’s been effective…"
