No feud was bigger than John Cena vs Dwayne Johnson in 2012. Not only was it Johnson’s highly anticipated return to the ring, after blowing up in the movie industry, but also the peak of Cena’s career. Being at the top of the game made for one of the most exciting feuds in wrestling history. Though the excitement factor wasn’t from the match itself, the promos between the two.
Being some of the most legendary wrestlers on the mic, the back-and-forth between the two was unreal. Add to that, there was legit heat between the two former WWE Champions. Having gone to Hollywood, it infuriated Cena that The Rock got the top position in a jiffy. He took out this anger in the ring with countless insults and, according to this superstar, didn’t let even let go of the issue backstage.

Nevertheless, everything is alright between the two celebrities. Both of them have matured from their feud back in WWE. Additionally, Cena even appreciates the path that Johnson cleared for wrestlers to become actors when he himself left the wrestling promotion for Hollywood. We hope to see them together again at WrestleMania 39 where Cena already has a match booked. The only missing component is The Rock.
