Cena Reflects on His Rivalry with “The Phenomenal One”
John Cena’s storied career in WWE has seen him face a myriad of opponents, but few have brought out the best in him like AJ Styles. Their in-ring chemistry was evident, with their bout at WWE Royal Rumble 2017 standing out as a testament to their combined prowess. This match was particularly significant, marking Cena’s last WWE Championship victory.
Recent events hint at a potential team-up between Cena and Styles at WWE Fastlane. However, plans were derailed when the Bloodline, consisting of Solo Sikoa & Jimmy Uso, ambushed Styles, resulting in a hospital visit for the “Phenomenal One.”
During an appearance on WWE’s The Bump, Cena took a moment to reflect on his history with Styles. He stated, “The term ‘Phenomenal’ perfectly encapsulates AJ. Beyond his in-ring talent, he’s genuinely a kind-hearted individual. Our matches were always a testament to our mutual respect and desire to push each other to the limit. While our career trajectories might have been different, our clashes always showcased our best. I genuinely hope for AJ’s swift recovery.”
The timeline for Styles’ return remains uncertain, leaving fans eager for updates.
Meanwhile, at WWE Fastlane, Cena found an ally in LA Knight as they teamed up to face the formidable duo of Solo & Jimmy.
