Speaking on the latest episode of WWE The Bump podcast, ‘The Archer of Enemy’ expressed his feelings about getting endorsed by Cena. He stated that ‘The Champ’ instilled a feeling that he is on the right path to success after spurring him on.

“It kind of just reminds [me], the superstar reminds me that I’m doing things right and I’m succeeding. So things like that as much as sometimes don’t look like it means much, but they’re heavy and they sit on me heavy,” he said.

He added, “Because I know what that means. I know that they are going out of their way, just to kind of praise us and give us their step of approval. So It’s heavy and I’m really appreciative of that.”
