According to Cena, he didn’t appreciate sharing the spotlight with a former WWE superstar who he deemed a “part-time wrestler,” on a break from Hollywood, and Johnson didn’t appreciate Cena going on television and belittling all the hard work he’d put in throughout the years to get the success he earned in Hollywood.
Dwayne Johnson is referring to the WWE feud he and John Cena had years ago, which resulted in two WrestleMania main events.
Johnson did not get into the specifics of their drama, but John Cena has publicly stated in the past it stemmed from promos the two cut against each other during airings of Monday Night Raw and Smackdown.
Cena said the line between acting and actual insults was often crossed when the two were out in the ring putting on a show, and it caused a lot of tension between them when the cameras weren’t rolling.
