WWE star John Cena recently spoke with Sky Sports to promote WWE Elimination Chamber and below are some interview highlights:
On retirement:
“I am far from retiring, I feel like I am at my physical best. I don’t think it’s any secret to anybody that this is what I love to do the most and I am far from over. [I am so proud that] I am still able to do this after 16 championships and I always say that my greatest match is my next one. A lot of folks in the WWE say that maybe I am past my prime and have lost a step and that creates a giant chip on [my] shoulder. I want to showcase to everyone watching that I am still at my best.”
On AJ Styles:
“[AJ] has pushed the envelope, spoken his mind and really challenged me. Testament to AJ, I think he is one of, it not the best, Superstars to step in a WWE ring on a nightly basis.”
On competing at WrestleMania:
“Every WrestleMania is the most important day of the year for every WWE Superstar. It’s like a quarterback making it to the Super Bowl. [WrestleMania] meant a lot to me last year as I was told I wasn’t supposed to be there and worked my butt off to make it. I am healthy, I feel great and after taking a back seat last year, I just want to perform for the WWE Universe on our biggest day.”
