July 20, 2016

As Nick noted earlier, John Cena was the guest on last night’s ESPN Off the Top Rope segment on SportsCenter. You can watch Cena’s appearance in the videos below, and the following are some highlights.

-Cena called last night’s WWE Draft a historic night for WWE, and said it’s the best time for WWE right now since the company has never had a roster like it currently does.

-On hosting the ESPY’s, Cena said it was “nerve wracking”, and then he talked about getting a chance to meet Peyton Manning. Cena praised Manning and the way he conducts himself.

-On Enzo & Cass, Cena noted you have to be authentic to get over in WWE, and he said it’s Enzo & Cass’ authenticity which is what has made them so popular.

-On Brock Lesnar’s possible USADA violation, Cena said he was hyping the fight before it happened like everyone else was. He added he was rooting for Lesnar as he was the underdog and Lesnar did well. But then when the flags came in, it changed the perception of things. He added there is no way people will not perceive Brock Lesnar differently as a result of what happened with USADA, and “Brock’s got a long, hard road ahead of him.”
