WWE Paul Levesque’s main content officer has pulled the curtain on the idea that John Cena would become a villain for at least the beginning of his farewell tour from the company.
Cena was on Dwayne’s side “The Rock” Johnson at the Elimination Chamber and participated in the beating of Cody Rhodes after winning her match to hit the map Wrestlemania 41. It was a shocking moment that left professional wrestling fans, and sports fans generally stunned.

Levesque, who was better known as Triple H during his career at WWE, appeared on “High performance” and talked about the decision to turn the heel. Levesque recalled the wrestling of the Cen in the late 2000s, and fans were bored with his “hectic, loyalty, respect for” good trick.
While Cena announced her last ride, Levesque noted that he could do the easy thing, but decided to play with the idea of turning Cena’s character completely.
“In my opinion … a sure thing you need to do is a one -year tour where you go to the city to the city, and he does his biggest hits, and that’s for sure, it’s easy, and it’s fun. But, as a performer, you somehow go through the proposals,” he said. “You play the same concert you played a million times. People love him, but I saw him. It’s nice, it’s all things, safe, light, fun all these things.
“But I went to John and said what if we pull the lever that no one ever wanted to pull, and what if we turned you into the heel, because it somehow felt me, if you never do it, the boy, just let you let it hang there for me.

Levesque said he had crossed what exactly happened in the elimination chamber, which happened in March. Rhodes is asked to sell her soul to a rock, a side with fans, seemingly congratulated the price, and then Cena hit him in the groin.
“Bad guys have to be justified in ‘why.’
“So, in John’s mind, 20 and more,” I did everything in the right way, but you told me that you were shit, I encouraged me and you said I was great, I couldn’t fight, I only have five moves, I, I, “I like all the things that has overflowed for 25 years, to go through, and that will be you, in your place, in your place. That, maybe I’m not as good as I used to be so fast, maybe I’m not so strong, maybe I wouldn’t be good from the performer, so I have to sell myself.
Levesque said Cena told him not to think it was where he would go for the last neglect, but he said, “I love him.”
He added that the price was a challenge to hate the crowd.
Cena got a huge amount of boos because it appeared several times on “Monday Night Raw” while the company was in Europe. Blamed fans to create a person who is now, vow to “wrestling ruins” And win your record 17th championship.
