John Cena

You know, I often talk about a main event on WrestleMania I had with The Miz a long time ago where The Rock came down to interfere.

Everyone knew Rocky was coming.

The match between Miz and I was lackluster as far as audience involvement because they were waiting, obviously, for Dwayne Johnson, who wouldn't want to be just looking towards the entrance.

Miz got knocked out, won the championship with a concussion.

We beat the hell out of each other.

We couldn't give anymore.

But looking back, I didn't understand all the things, and maybe we should have done something different because we should have just got Rock out there earlier.

But that piece was also, again, it's WrestleMania.

I think we had to blow it off.

That piece was a building block for a year later in Miami.

Because the next day on TV, we challenged each other to the Miami WrestleMania.

So it was like leveraging WrestleMania for another WrestleMania.

I just wasn't used to it.

I didn't get the perspective.

And it worked.

It ended up being one of the most successful events in company history.

So when you say, like, oh, man, you seem a little bit like this.

I don't.

It happened.

It was great.
