Like, what a hypocrite I am, because I still love WWE and I can’t go all the time. And I just didn’t see that.

This is a moment. You gave me an opening. I’m going to kick the door in,'” he recalled. “And I was diligent and I understand why he got upset.” Cena said he didn’t understand what Johnson and wrestlers like Dave Bautista were doing. “These guys are breaking down barriers, shattering ceilings, and on top of that, just transcending the art form,” he said. “I just got selfish and wanted a main event marquee match because it would better what I thought was the business.
