When Rusev first debuted on the WWE main roster he found himself on the receiving end of a pretty decent push, and eventually he ended up feuding with John Cena.
Rusev ended up facing off against John Cena at WrestleMania 31, and even though he didn’t pick up the victory in that match it was still a big night for his career.
The former United States Champion recently talked about his experience working with Cena on The Ryback Show, and he had nothing but good things to say about the 16 time WWE World Champion.
“I was blessed. To this day, I pray and I’m so thankful that I got to work with John Cena who taught me every single thing, and talking about the crowd, the timing, and it’s just an unbelievable experience, man.”
Rusev also noted that he and Cena have a good personal relationship, and they still text to this day.
“[We had a] great relationship. I never had a bad experience with John. John taught me about cars because I love cars, and he taught me about cars. And I got a Mazarati because he recommended that it was a fantastic car. I’ve been in his house for dinner. I think it was a christening for me – we started working a program and he invited me into his house to kind of see who I am, and we hung out. It was fun, man.”
