WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley has made interesting comments on John Cena turning heel and teaming up with The Rock. It was a huge moment that got a lot of attention on social media and even attracted non-wrestling fans.
After winning the Elimination Chamber, John Cena turn heel and attacked Cody Rhodes by joining hands with The Final Boss(The Rock). This is the 16-time world champion John Cena’s retirement tour in the company and no one has expected the character change coming. Which shocked the entire WWE fans world wide.
Speaking on the Busted Open Podcast, Mick Foley commented on John Cena’s heel turn and said he thought it was great. He also discussed Cena nailing his facials in the segment.
“That look on Cena’s face, oh, that was bright. I mean, that’ll go down in wrestling lore. And I think that’s where Hollywood has really served him well because it wasn’t an overblown reaction. It just, he looked like a different person. It was like he transformed like I know that’s John Cena, but he’s like John Cena whose soul has been taken,” said Foley.
He added:
“Yeah, I thought it was great. Him and The Final Boss together, you know, The Rock really embracing this role. But Cena is so good and seemingly so immersed in this. The ironic thing is that the people used to hate him are gonna love him. And there’s probably a lot of kids pretty upset about this.”
