Such a great conversation, Sam!
Cvv da 🐐
John cena is the GOAT 🐐 I hope he doesn’t retire from WWE it’s not the same without him cena made wrestling great I hope he can have one more run as champion
love you cvv
CVV... love the FPJ interviews... when are you getting Cena on your podcast???
Arm Anderson was completely wrong I believe Cena should’ve won at summerslam 2014 because Brock was already a huge star he didn’t need to beat the streak everyone says that that was the wrong decision nobody wanted that to happen and Cena should have kicked Brock’s ass at summerslam 2014 as a kid most kids were heartbroken that moment literally destroyed my childhood I was heading to 7th grade that hurt people bring that up and use that to say why Cena is the goat
John Cena referring to himself as “some cheap shot kid who’s trying to make a name for himself” in 2013 is so wild man, the humility on this guy is crazy.
He wasn’t referring to 2013. He was referring to the beginning of their rivalry. From when he first opened his mouth in ‘08 about Rock.
@@AceBeatz23that’s still pretty humble of him tbh
I know man he is so modest cena made me a wrestling fan this guy changed my life he is the goat and it seems like he doesn’t know it 😂
Cena is way to humble John cena needs to understand that he’s more then just a business man or a cheap shot kid he’s the goat
But one has to understand his success stems from that humble attitude. If he just decided he was the man and everybody needs to fan him as great he wouldn’t be the level he is. The openness and humble attitude is exactly why the company relied on him for so long as the face. It shows why you hear a Bruce Prichard just absolutely glow talking about him and how much he loved working with him.
Hearing all about the business and all the behind scene stories from John Cena is so enlighting!!! Wow
⚡️
you do know he is an old school guy and old school era guys in the locker room will always want to protect the business and the behind the scenes curtain stories at the best of their ability to keep kayfabe alive even though in this modern era it is very hard to keep it alive .... this is just the way it is
Bot comment
“Enlightning”
@@LaughingStudimagine being that low. "Bot comment" are you a child or something? It's all people ever say these days. "NPC" "bot" "ratio" it's all stupid.
When he won the US belt, I was like "That dude is awesome"...I dont really like Cena, but watching someone like him, with the career he has had, put that much energy in a mid card title, says a lot about how much he loves and respects the business
what don't u like about him did he do something to u still hating hating him in 2023 GTFOH with your bs !
What problem u have with cena what did he do to u smh come on man have some heart to the guy it’s 2023
John Cena, the person, not the WWE character, usually holds back so much due to going through the endless process of being attacked socially and trying so hard to assure everyone that he is not taking himself too important. But in this interview he was feeling comfortable and there were fractions of him feeling important, and I have to give this to the great skills of the interviewer. Whoever is the interviewer, good job! and props for making someone like John Cena to open up like this without feeling the need to hold back!
His name is Sam he has a podcast called notsam wrestling
he is the same person and the character stop separating the two he even admitted it 🙄
@@simenzelwedlamini Okay, I'll stop doing that! I also wanted to take this opportunity to say that John Cena's life story could be turned into a very interesting movie. It would definitely be something worth watching!
Sammy Shitbagz
This interview has a lot of gems we should use in our own lives.
I always wanted to hear cena’s perspective on the Brock match if he was cool with it and made the decision to go through with it or had any reservations and Brock came up with idea with stone cold that’s interesting and Cena is right if it was 50/50 it wouldn’t have had the same impact and it would’ve been wasted what an incredible perspective
The point he made about Brock and him at Summer Slam was a fascinating perspective. I personally thought Taker should of taken that streak to retirement and never lost, but at least in losing his legacy was in good hands like Brocks and Cena. John is so right. If Brock goes into his next big match and just barely scrapes by. You ruin the streak legacy that Undertaker built for so long. Great point by John, and I love listening to this guy talk about his perspective on the business. It's refreshing, and a little bit different than some of the other legends in this business.
Im surprised at how many people dont think that way and didnt think that way before that SSlam match. I told people back then on a wrestling forum that there is no chance Lesnar is losing that match or looking weak against Cena. WWE can fuck up things a lot, especially back then, but I knew how respected Taker was and how big that streak was. whoever beats Taker has to be booked strong after that.
I give Cena a lot of credit and respect for agreeing to it and also him understanding what’s best for business
Except brock just went on to squash everyone who isnt goldberg or roman. Im still pissed about that 9 second match with kofi
should have*
@@invadazim4320 so you’re mad about that what about Cena smashing Rey mysterio after Rey won the Wwe title while Cena was like champ for ten fucking times. Now you care because it’s Brock huh?
John Cena was the victim of a shift in social culture / entertainment culture, during his rise in WWE. Coming off the heels of one of the most explosive and popular eras in Wrestling history, John Cena was handed the ball and had to deliver. People like myself saw the shift in culture and didn’t like where it was headed and a lot of us saw Cena as the torch bearer of this new shift. Cena started off as an edgy antihero baby face and as the culture began to shift he became a generic bubblegum babyface. I think a lot of us felt that he could have fought this new shift and turned heel or went his own way but he kept going. This created a lot of hate for him amongst old school fans/ older fans etc. sorry for the long post but it is interesting to analyze cenas career and how he was put in such a tough spot.
Spot on 💯
Yeah agreed completely! 👍
Exactly. A lot of people, including John thought the fans were booing him just to be cool. We booed him because we were the ones who were cheering him during the rapper phase. When he stopped rapping and became Super Cena we just wanted the Cena we loved back. That never happened because the culture changed. So I moved on to other performers like CM Punk to replace the spot Cena had.
@@AlphaProto he still was successful ad made wwe bigger than it already was and people are suddenly loving him a lot than they were before !
I think a lot of fans are starting to realize this now, given the benefit of hindsight. This is why he gets cheered when he returns and will continue to do so.
This guy gets it. He's everything everybody wishes people like Hogan were. How is one of the best to do it period a selfless performer? I feel bad we booed him for so long.
smh give me break
I didnt boo him ☝🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼
This is a gem. The bright side of him not being an active wrestler is more interviews like this on press runs, so interesting to hear him break down certain things
There is a legit reason why he's one of the greatest still going strong today after 20 years. From his perspective to his suit game to his experience with some of the best in film and in the ring especially his rock story that made me tear up 😢🙏, there is a reason why John Cena may be the greatest not simply because he wanted to be the 16 time World champ and greatest US champion of all Time but because of his class act attitude in wanting to contribute to make the industry better is what makes him arguably The greatest this was golden, you did again Sam #WeGotTime 👑 ⌚ 🔥
This is the best Sam wrestling interview I’ve seen. Great questions and John Cena is so humble and has such a great perspective on wrestling and life in general.
His first xpac one is pretty good
Sam's commitment to using "inside" wrestling lingo with actual pro wrestlers while knowing they think its cringe is so hilarious.
Or is that just like your perception man?!
Whos a "pro wrestler" here ?
😂😂😂
John is not even "a wrestler"
I agree Sam is cringe and stupid people say cena got destroyed at summeralam 2014 when reality cena should have won that match Brock lesnar did not need the win it was a bad decision
@@LaughingStud clown he is a pro wrestler wtf u talking about smh 🙄
@@simenzelwedlamini People like him think just cause ppl like John didn't wrestle in the indies that they're not "real pro wrestlers" idiocy at it's finest.
Really great interview! Good questions, and you made a point not to interrupt him. A classic for sure!
John cena is so humble and modest cena made me a wrestling fan this guy changed my life. He’s the goat and it’s like he doesn’t know it he always talks down and discredits himself he once said to the rock that he’s just a regular business guy just trying to make a name for himself when that is far from the truth. John your that great you have to believe it
Get Cena back on the show!! This conversation needs to be way longer. This is great stuff.
Gotta love John Cana. Such a smart and well spoken guy. Always a pleasure listening to him.
The more interviews I see, the more I respect John Cena.
The constant nice suits he wears and the pocket watch bro is styling and profiling no matter where he is anymore! Gotta be a 16 titles thing 🐐
I was never a fan of Cena the wrestler but as a guy, he is 100% genuine and kind. I've met him twice at shows and once during his "Ruck Fules" era, a bunch of fans were waiting outside to meet wrestlers and most wrestlers ignored the fans and went to their cars, understandable because it was cold and drizzling. Cena came out and said he was gonna take his stuff to his car and come back, nobody believed him. He put his stuff in his car and came back and took photos with everyone and signed autographs for probably an hour. He understands that the fans pay his check and appreciates the fans.
Johns perspective is something is not only vaulable to the buisness, but also to people in general. the ability to be supporting in everything you do is amazing.
Its always great to hear Cena for a long period of time.
I’ve spent half my life booing John Cena, in Boston, in New York, in Texas, in Florida…
Now, I applaud this man 👏👏
smh hypocrite
@@simenzelwedlamini yea he’s soft lmao. Stand on yo shit and keep that same energy
@@Playerism booing cena rest of his life now now only likes him on the end tail of his career GTFOH !
Your not a true cena fan your not even a loyal wrestling fan
Congrats you ruined a lot of childhoods
Got something to watch during my work break 🙌🏽
This is where Sam shines. He is a very good interviewer either Wrestling or any entertainer. Thanks Sammy!
grew up a Cena fan in the US champ rapper era - got burnt out in the Cena "Superman" era with his shtick but always appreciated him even if i was over him being "Lol he won again", grew to truly appreciate him again during the US open challenge era again. dude is a legend.
that said one "gripe" with the convo - about cena "never saying "i win"", edge, jericho & i believe cena himself has spoke to cena saying he should go over the nexus and edge/jericho tryna tell him it was a bad idea and (to cena's credit) admitting it was after the fact... so yeah cena played his cards here and there at times lol.
edit: that aside John was incredibly insightful and very pleasant to listen to.
in a weird way with the way wrestling media works it's cool seeing wrestlers; once out the the "Everyday" - or as Vince would say: THE WEEDS, come out and talk about their experience - Taker in recent years been a great example.
The
hypocrite
One of the greatest minds in wwe history , dude has lived up to everything he see’s in his mind
23:50 Completely made me lose it with the Suffering Succotash reference 😂😂
John Cena has a New York Times Best Selling book in him and I can't wait to read it.
“I don’t look uphill and say I want to be that guy. I just look at the field and say put me on that thing”. That’s tough.
probably the best interview of john, nice work
I think irl John Cena always wears that 3 piece suit 😂
Just WOW!! That was an outstanding interview!! Well done!!
So damn giving. Even wanted to get the plug out the way so he can continue the great wrestling convo. That's so cool man.
Time stamps, my kingdom for time stamps 😂
Honestly for the longest time I was a Cena hater and I never realized how important he was to pro wrestling until he wasn't there anymore.
smh u only realize that now well u too late for that !🙄😒
@@simenzelwedlamini true but a lot of people hated on Cena. In reality what we really hated was the Pg stuff we just took it out on John. Unfortunately what I failed to realize is the only thing worse than PG wrestling is today's modern-day PC wrestling.. the sport I grew up loving has become a Haven for snowflakes and easily offended libtards.
“I can dress for a wedding or a funeral, just tell me what color to wear” - a winner’s mindset for sure.
My dream is to see cena as the 17 time champion I hope to god he doesn’t retire cena made me a wrestling fan he is my hero the one guy I look up to more then anyone he deserves all the love and respect
He's also my hero and I'm with you too man 🙏
Come on SIRIUS, we need camera's in the JIM & SAM Studio everyday for video's just like this. Great Job!
Greatest wisdom I've heard from John Cena at 11:14
If you don't have something to care about, you do not have something. In my case someone
My favorite John Cena promo was when he had the shoot promo with Roman Reigns and showed him he had a long ways to go to become the man which he didn't get there till 7 years later.
what a convo. i could listen to cena talk for days
What an interview. John Cena is The One And Only GREATEST OF ALL TIME. who he is inside the ring and outside if wasn’t about being the best wrestler but ENTERTAINER. people forget. It’s all about entertaining us. Stupid humble John is.
OMG, I thought I couldn't stand John Cena!! Well let me say I was wrong. He is a gentleman! Nice interview!
Smh clearly u don’t know people Jesus Christ what’s your problem with cena what did he ever do to u
I hope John cena makes his own podcast one day 🔥🔥
Wrestling podcast gold. John Cena is a legend. period.
I love John cena he is soo important in my childhood alongside edge, Rey, Batista, Orton erc… love seeing things legend speaking about the wrestling business and his journey
This was an eye-opener. WHAT A GRACIOUS MAN! May he run the brand!! He deserves to captain that ship!!
I wish Hogan could have been like Cena. Even as recently as 2005 he went over Randy Orton when it was time for Randy to shine. Tried to win the belt off Lesnar in 2002. For the boom that he brought to the business he sure as hell caused a lot of harm to it too.
John cena is way to humble and modest cena seems like he’s lost confidence in himself he use to consider himself the greatest and now he constantly discredits himself
@@JayWIll2000s I don't think he's lost confidence. He seems to have come to terms that his wrestling career is over more or less & he doesn't see the point in trying to big himself up now. Cena is too humble though. Doesn't realise how big of a star he was.
@@ashishnair12 that’s the whole point cena is modest he doesn’t see or know how great he is he called himself just a regular guy trying to make a name for himself when he’s way more then that I wish I could talk to cena and have him change his mind on that cause cena is bigger then he’s letting off
@@ashishnair12 and I say cena should have won at summerslam 2014 fans haters have poisoned John cena mind in thinking him losing was the right decision it was dumb Brock lesnar did not need the win
@@ashishnair12 Before John retires I want to tell him he should be the guy to break ric flairs record & become a 17 time world champion, & win the intercontinental championship and become a triple crown/grandslam champion. Then he needs to finally beat roman reigns one on one that’s my opinion haters have ruined cena way of thinking cena had to know that he is the greatest of all time
Hated Super Cena till he lost to DB at Summerslam 2013. Big fan ever since, seems like a hell of a guy
That’s a 5 star match
hypocrite
@@simenzelwedlamini wut
Your a hater super cena was injured in that match John cena is way better then Danial Bryan
@@bertonspat129 you know cena was injured if it wasn’t for the injury DB would have gotten cooked 😂
13:50 crazy how Randy said the same thing about the wrestling business in the Kurt angle podcast.
Amazing conversation between two amazing human beings. ❤
John Cena. The man. The myth. The legend.
Mature. Sincere. Honest. Hard working. Ethical. Real. Model employee. This is why Vince put his trust in Cena for so long.
27:43 Of course the best of all time, Stone Cold was behind "Suplex City" gimmick, Austin is a genius when it comes to making gimmicks that draw money. THE ULTIMATE GOAT
Thought that was fascinating that it was his idea or well they came up with it together like damn crazy
Actually Suplex City is a copy of Taz in ECW, Human Suplex machine. Look it up.
I love this. I'm so glad I got to see the whole thing. Great job John Cena on everything you said and did in this interview. Thank you for a great 22 , soon to be 23 Year Run in Wrestling. Happy Retirement ,Gone but not forgotten . You cant help but have respect of John Cena.
21:43 - Roman Reigns part
This guy is doing such a great job keeping a conversation going with a talking mic
“Hey we need ya to do a firefly funhouse match. What’s that. Idk. Ok let’s get weird.” Fn great
What a great show 🙏🏼 wish it was longer
Great interview Sam thanks
You interviewed my idol. This is my ultimate dream 💗💗💗🤌🤌🤌
I could listen to this convo all day... Killer interview Sammy Shit Farts
I love how humble Cena is. Such a smart and wise guy wrestling industry wise.
I love and respect this man
I love how everyone that interviews john assumes they have no time and john always says you have time
Cena is a legend forever!!I love Cena he is a selfless guy
Good clickbait Sam. I thought John Cena was actually gonna be there for a second. Cant believe I feel for a phone call. Also what is he staring at in the interview?
😂😂😂
The whole interview is Amazing Honest, Cena is such am intelligent man. Looks a million $ and what he says about the 2 watches, Rock, Theory, Roman. Is just so Honest a truly brilliant interview
what a great interview w john! if only he got to do that heel run everyone wanted
John cena is the goat 🐐.
Facts cena is so modest I wish I could talk to cena and tell him my perspective and how much he meant to me
smartest man to ever grace a wrestling ring
He is so modest he always discredits himself
This man cena is the true goat and he doesn’t know it or sees himself as that like he use to
No way I just heard a man unironically say he likes the fast and furious movies because of the storytelling
26:12 Brock talk.
Thanks!!!
19:40 - I bet it was Paul Heyman 😅
I have really enjoyed this interview and respected Cena more.
I will always greatly respect Cena and certainly his place in wrestling history. But I will say the combination of the "Cena always wins" booking for years and the milk toast promos make it hard for a couple generations to truly embrace that character. It sounds weird, but coming off the Attitude era, those generations were quite happy that the goody-goody Hulkamania era was left in the past -- but it was brought back in the form of Cena. I loved the few and far between moments when he would cut deep insults and was more aggressive in his promos because that actually felt real. The nice guy Champ (like Hulkamania) stopped feeling authentic. Shit talking Cena felt more like the real John. Im glad he refers to the "authenticity" aspect with The Rock angle. His best stuff was a bloody brawl with Brock or the cutting promos with Rock or Punk.
John I think is the Goat of coming out of the business. Rock….I’ll accept that argument, but 1A and 1B whichever you want to place them, but Cena is so eloquent
Cena was so smooth getting out of the main event, and the business overall. You really can't see the mfka
John cena is just so humble and yet doesn’t get the respect he deserves cena should have beaten the rock at wrestlemania 28
This was such a great conversation and I have a lot more respect for John Cena !!! Thank you so much!
Man John is such an inspiration and his just so cool ❤
Dude John cena well fucking said, time and time again ALL the way through. A great mf 30 minutes! ⏳
I believe Cena has done more and btr reactions in WWE.
John Cena is such a stand up guy and is so humble. Such a great person in general.
Now I understand why Undertaker said John Cena was the biggest overachiever I couldn't believe he was supposed to be a Jobber (enhancement talent) even on his Dr. of Thuganomics gimmick.
This comment deserves more likes…
Amazing interview!
Cena started from the bottom and now he is a 1st ballad Hall of Famer. Crazy.
if i would have a meeting with a wrestler i would 100% choose John Cena he can give you advice that can change your life
Cena left with a Bang imo. I loved his United states title run, the monday night open challenges up until the debu of Kevin Ownes. Was pure American GOLD!
John cena is a legend ❤
Who did Sam Interview?
I'm proud to say I've never seen a scene of any of the Fast & Furious movies.
Man!!! Such a great interview. I wish this was like an hour. Sam did amazing.
5 moves of death aside Cena has a great personality mixture of Rock n Hogan n love him or hate him he drew money 💯💯💲💲🙏🏽🙏🏽
I didn't even know John was in a fast and furious movie. I only seen the ones with Paul Walker. He was that franchise.
Man i need to learn what John does for therapy and his mindset. He was the top dog for over a decade and he'd be the last one to tell you that. Its pretty remarkable
Cena should come back and fight for intercontinental championship. The only title which alluded him in his career besides the universal championship.
How can anyone not like Cena
Wow that’s kinda scary knowing that we could of almost never had a John Cena if it wasn’t for that European tour
Talk about wrestling, John is a selfless man. He's willing to help elevate the next generation.
Man I hope he sticks around forever like Ric.
I agree this man John cena is so modest
