Bray Wyatt is one of the most renowned superstars in WWE right now. Known for his exciting storylines, creative characterization, and never before seen matches, Wyatt is respected in the wrestling world.

Recently, WWE Superstar and icon, John Cena, praised Wyatt. In his interview with Sports Illustrated, Cena said, “I’ve had many experiences and many stories in WWE over my tenure there, and a lot of it has been embracing conflict and embracing the tale of good versus evil.”

Cena and Wyatt faced each other in a “Firefly Fun House Match” at Wrestlemania 36. “For the viewing audience, it was the first time they’d seen a cinematic depiction of this, but this isn’t the first time that we’ve seen a conflicted John Cena character.”

The 16 time World Champion also expressed how “Bray is obviously doing a great job,” working in the current crowd less situation due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Bray Wyatt Reacts To John Cena

Last Week, Bray replied to the comments of John Cena. In an interview with ESPN, Wyatt said –

“John’s such a sweet guy, isn’t he? What a sweet guy that John Cena is. What a sweet, sweet guy. I’ve been through so much with John Cena, you know, it’s amazing to me to see him, you know, from the star he always was turned into this gigantic movie star. And John is very much the type of person you have to earn his respect. Because he doesn’t just give it, he’s very forward that way. So hearing that phrase, for me and Seth [Rollins], it’s a big deal because, like I said, John is this huge star. That’s a milestone, for me and my legacy, I think it’s pretty neat.”

Bray recalled his and Cena’s WrestleMania match –

“It was like I was teleported to another place in time. It was a pretty wild dude, from what I remember it was, it was pretty wild.”

However, Bray Wyatt thinks the creative cinematic matches should be “finite” because “that’s what keeps them special.”
