John Cena has high praise for a current WWE Superstar on the SmackDown roster.
WWE Superstar John Cena was a recent guest at the Fan Expo Chicago. When asked about his upcoming opponent at Clash in Paris, Logan Paul, Cena admitted that Paul isn’t a very likable guy.
“I’ve always been one of those guys you don’t have to like. You can hate me if you want. But I’d like to think I’ve earned people’s respect,” John Cena said. “So 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 can beat me up? Yes. I think he’s got a very good chance because he’s really good at WWE. I know a lot of people in this room don’t like him. He’s not a very likable guy.”
When a fan at the event called Paul overrated, Cena defended him by calling him underrated instead, putting over his former tag partner and future opponent.
“I disagree, I think he’s underrated. I think he gets a bad rap,” John Cena admitted. “He’s not an outsider; he belongs in WWE. I think his best days are still ahead of him; he’s got championships in his future. I can tell you I’m not looking past Logan Paul, and 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’ve got a very tough opponent in Logan Paul. So do I think he can beat me up? Yes. Will he have to earn every inch? Absolutely.” [H/T: Fightful]
