There has been a lot of debate over the past few months concerning what could possibly be the biggest storyline in WWE History. The debate stems over who will become the Superstar with the most Championship reigns in history- Randy Orton or John Cena. While a lot of fans think Orton should make the long mile and earn it, AJ Styles feels differently and backs Cena to win the biggest prize of it all.

In his recent Twitch stream, “The Phenomenal One” expressed this opinion.

“I think if anybody has earned an opportunity to do that it’s him. But he does not need it,” says Styles. “He is in Hollywood doing blockbuster movies etc. etc. Whenever I see John Cena in a commercial, I think that’s John Cena.

“I am happy for him. He really works hard. Everything he does he puts the work in,” concluded Styles.

AJ Styles and John Cena shared a very close relationship during their feud a few years ago. AJ Styles vs John Cena was a clash of two of the most experienced men in the business. It quickly rose as the hottest feud back then in WWE.

John Cena is tied with Ric Flair as a 16-time WWE World Champion. If he wins the belt one more time, he will become the Superstar with the highest number of Championship reigns in WWE history.

AJ Styles backs John Cena for his work in the business

This record is the epitome of success in WWE. John Cena is also the deserving one for this achievement. However, his Hollywood career has taken him off that path.

John Cena’s decision to pursue the same road as Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has seen him take a break from the ring. He aims at focusing now on an acting career, one which he has had a taste of before.

In the meantime, WWE plans on reducing the gap between Randy Orton and him. Orton, at 13 Championship reigns, is just 3 behind Cena. He can catch up quickly now.

A big speculation suggests that there will be a huge showdown for the record between John Cena and Randy Orton at WrestleMania, 2 or 3 years down the line. The stipulation would be winner takes all and loser retires.
