5 Biggest regrets of WWE Superstars: John Cena makes it personal, Randy Orton's big mistake

#1 John Cena regrets making his feud with The Rock personal

John Cena vs. The Rock will certainly go down as one of the greatest rivalries in WWE history. The duo headlined two straight WrestleMania events, with the first show setting a new buy-out record. While talking about the WWE rivalry, John Cena stated that he regrets making things personal with The Great One. Cena dubbed The Rock a sell-out during the feud, and regrets doing the same.

It was stupid of me. It genuinely was. That was my perspective at the time. For me to not be able to see Dwayne’s vision on what he wanted to do personally, and how his personal success could affect a growing global brand, that was just ignorant on my part.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
