– Speaking on UnSKripted with Dr. Chris Featherstone, John Cena senior revealed that his son is not his favorite wrestler and instead named some of his son’s greatest eivals as names that come to mind.
“First of all who says my son’s my favorite wrestler? I have quite a few favorite wrestlers. Edge comes to mind. Randy Orton comes to mind. When I was younger and I had the opportunity to meet him several times, Bruno Sammartino was truly one of the greats. Chief Jay Strongbow, another great that I had the opportunity to at least see in action and do an autograph signing with.Those are the people that made wrestling real. I guess that’s where we’re at. Ric Flair is another one that I admire. I did several shows with Ric. An outstanding human being. I think if Ric didn’t have the health problems that he had, I think you would see him back in the ring today.”
– Today, WWE stock closed at $55.59 per share. This was an increase of 2.19%
