WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray isn’t pulling any punches when it comes to his thoughts on John Cena‘s current heel turn.
On a recent episode of Busted Open Radio, Bully Ray went in-depth on what he believes is the cause of John Cena’s heel turn not working out like many people expected it to.
“The reason why John Cena’s heel turn feels like it didn’t ‘live up to’ its expectations is because we didn’t get the conduit and the conjunction between The Rock,” Bully Ray said. “Without Rock being there, it leaves a giant hole in this whole thing as to why John and The Rock were in the same place at the same time at Elimination Chamber. It’s not like The Rock gave the throat slash to a hard camera or to a side of the arena of fans; he gave the throat slash to John Cena, basically implying that he was telling John Cena what to do.
“We don’t get The Rock. That lets everybody so down that John beating Cody is just like I don’t care. It doesn’t matter to me. You got your 17[th world title] because you left this massive piece of the puzzle out.” [H/T: Wrestling Inc.]
Following WrestleMania 41, The Rock appeared on The Pat McAfee Show to explain his absence from the event. You can check out his puzzling comments by clicking here.
