John Cena took to X to explain the reasoning behind the John
Cena Classic following his announcement on Saturday night at
Backlash.
Cena said that when he’s asked to give advice in WWE, he
often replies with “be authentic,” “do not fear failure,”
and “know your why.”
“The John Cena Classic may not be perfect by any means yet
it’s authentically me (I am not perfect either) and reflects
my values and beliefs,” Cena wrote. “I’m aware that there is
the risk it might be a total failure and I’m not afraid of
that and believe it’s still worth stepping ‘in the arena.'”
He continued to explain the “why” for him in WWE now that he
is retired.
“My ‘why’ in WWE is to consistently be as useful as possible
for as long as possible, with my in ring career at an end,
my ‘why’ is to use whatever energy or relevance I have left
in hopes to create a launchpad of opportunity for all talent
to show their skills while simultaneously creating a unique
experience for our dedicated fan base,” Cena wrote.
“At the very least.. we all learn something. At the very
best.. we all create something. I’m ready for wherever the
road takes us. Thank you WWE for this opportunity,” he
added, noting that more details will come as they “figure
all this out!
