Some extremely high praise from John Cena to AEW’s Max Caster, particularly in regards to his abilities on the mic.
In a sit down with Forbes, Cena was asked if he thought he could beat Max Caster in a rap battle, saying:
“I know of Max Caster very well, and the answer is no.”
John Cena went on to elaborate about his admiration for Caster, noting that he actually reached out to him, saying:
“He’s extremely gifted. I remember hearing him for the first time, and asking a good friend of mine to please pass his information on to me. I immediately checked out his raps, out of the blue, and I saw what he was doing was spectacular. I wish him all the best of luck, but I can’t give him any advice because he’s punching far above my weight class. He is very gifted. He’s gifted enough to rhyme to the beat live, where I kind of did my stuff acappella to let the punchlines sink in.
“Hip-hop constantly evolves, and it constantly moves forward, and he is the better version of what I did. He’s really, really spectacular. As long as he keeps everything in realistic perspective, he shows great potential.”
Fans may remember John Cena’s previous gimmick as the Professor of Thuganomics in which he was heavily influenced by hip-hop both in attire and with his ‘freestyle’ raps on his opponents.
