Former WWE Star Condemns John Cena’s In-Ring Ability

WWE

A former WWE star has condemned John Cena’s wrestling ability saying that he “couldn’t move the right way.”

Tough Enough winner Maven reflected on Cena’s ability in an interview on Cafe de Rene.

He joined WWE in 2001 as a participant in the first season of Tough Enough and would remain with the company until 2005.

Appearing on the show, a fan asked Maven his opinion on Cena, who replied:

“He fell into the category of like the Lugers of the world that just couldn’t… I mean he couldn’t, as middle of a ground of a wrestler I was, he was bad.

“It’s painful to watch him run. It’s painful…

“Here’s the best way that I can think of describing him. Have you ever had a dream and in your dream you’re trying to accomplish something athletic and for whatever reason you just can’t do it? You know that feeling?

“Like you can’t run or get to or swim or whatever. Like to me, that’s how he just lived life. He just was like constantly just couldn’t move the right way.”

Whilst Maven clearly didn’t think Cena moved right, he did see the upsides of the sixteen-time WWE Champion, adding:

“Then again, like I said, the son of a b*tch was more over than anybody ever could’ve imagined. He’s a good entertainer.

“He could talk his ass off. Talk circles around everybody…

“And again, John was one of those guys that I knew in passing. You know, we never hung out. I don’t even think we ever went out to eat together.

“But always just could not have been more polite to me. So, another guy that I could not be happier for his success.

“That said, he walked around like he had two left feet.”

Cena, with both his left feet, is returning to WWE Raw on March 6.

He has been promised a “warm welcome” by WWE United States Champion Austin Theory.
