For years John Cena was the face of the WWE and he clashed with some of the biggest names in the business throughout his career. Cena was on top for many years, but there are some who feel that his in-ring work could have been better.
Recently former WWE star Maven commented on Cena’s in-ring skills during an appearance on the Cafe de Rene podcast, and he explained why it was painful for him to watch John Cena run.
“He fell into the category of like the Lugers of the world that just couldn’t… I mean he couldn’t, as middle of a ground of a wrestler I was, he was bad. It’s painful to watch him run. It’s painful… Here’s the best way that I can think of describing him. Have you ever had a dream and in your dream you’re trying to accomplish something athletic and for whatever reason you just can’t do it? You know that feeling? Like you can’t run or get to or swim or whatever. Like to me, that’s how he just lived life. He just was like constantly just couldn’t move the right way.”
Maven then went on to praise John Cena’s mic skills and his ability to get over when he added, “Then again, like I said, the son of a b*tch was more over than anybody ever could’ve imagined. He’s a good entertainer. He could talk his a** off. Talk cirlces around everybody… And again, John was one of those guys that I knew in passing. You know, we never hung out. I don’t even think we never went out to eat together. But always just could not have been more polite to me. So, another guy that I could not be happier for his success. That said, he walked around like he had two left feet.”
