“I don’t know if you’re going to like my answer, but I’ve always been one of those guys you don’t necessarily have to like. You can hate, but I’d like to think I’ve earned people’s respect.

“What I’m about to say might not be the answer you’re looking for, but hopefully you’ll respect it. Do I think Logan Paul could beat me up? Yes.

“I think he’s got a very good chance because he’s really good at WWE. I know there’s not a lot of people in this room that like him. He’s not a very likeable guy.”

When someone in the crowd shouted that he’s overrated, John Cena responded:

“I disagree, I think he’s underrated, I think he gets a bad rap. He’s not an outsider, he belongs in WWE. I think his best days are ahead of him, I think he’s got championships in his future.

“I’m not looking past Logan Paul, I’m not believing any of the hype that he’s an outsider who should be taken lightly.

“I’m training hard, Cody Rhodes brought out the best in me at SummerSlam, he reignited a fire in me, and I know I have a very, very tough opponent in Logan Paul. Do I think he can beat me up? Yes. Will he have to earn every inch? Absolutely.”
