Bray Wyatt Breaks Character And Praises John Cena

Bray Wyatt has been climbing the ladder in WWE for years now, and one major name he’s encountered more than a few times on his way to the top is John Cena.

Cena and Wyatt have clashed a handful of times, including this year at WrestleMania 36, and recently during an interview John Cena noted that he thinks Bray is doing a “great job.”

During an interview with ESPN current Universal Champion Bray Wyatt reacted to Cena’s comments, and he had nothing but praise for John.

”John’s such a sweet guy, isn’t he? What a sweet guy that John Cena is. What a sweet, sweet guy. I’ve been through so much with John Cena, you know, it’s amazing to me to see him, you know, from the star he always was turned into this gigantic movie star. And John is very much the type of person you have to earn his respect. Because he doesn’t just give it, he’s very forward that way. So hearing that phrase, for me and Seth [Rollins], it’s a big deal because, like I said, John is this huge star. That’s a milestone, for me and my legacy, I think it’s pretty neat.”

Bray Wyatt had a big night on Sunday as he defeated Braun Strowman to become the Universal Champion for the second time in his career. However he didn’t get much time to enjoy his victory as Roman Reigns made his surprise return and took out both Wyatt and Braun Strowman.

At the WWE Payback pay-per-view on Sunday Bray Wyatt will defend his Universal Championship against Braun Strowman and Roman Reigns in a triple threat No Holds Barred match.
