Ric Flair Says He Has No Problem With John Cena Breaking His World Title Reign Record

John Cena is about to embark on his last run with WWE as a wrestler. Cena announced last week that he will go on tour for one year beginning in January. The announcement has sparked speculation about Cena getting one more title run.

While speaking on Busted Open Radio, Ric Flair said that he would love for his daughter to beat his title record but he would have no problem if Cena did it.

“None,” Flair said when he was asked if he has no problem with John Cena breaking his title reign record. “The honest to God truth, I think so much personally of John Cena. He’s just one of those really great guys, in my opinion. And I have known a few. In a perfect world, it would be my daughter which I think would be the biggest thing that could ever happen. I told her one time and she got upset. Not upset but she didn’t like the comparison. I said ‘you’d would be as famous as Serena Williams if you broke that record that’s been there for so long.’ She didn’t like the comparison but she’s as good an athlete as there is alive today. If they do it with John, I have no problem. I’d be the first one to hit the ring and shake his hand. They’re meant to be broken. Sentimentally, I like it but – I’d hit the ring on John. I’d probably take a blade, jump him without telling anybody, have him make a comeback, and give me the same hold.”

Tommy Dreamer joked, “Now Hunter is not gonna call you back.”

Flair said he doesn’t think Cena wants to break the record. He said, “He was such a fan of mine and all that. I personally kind of agree with you. I don’t think he wants to pull the trigger on it.”

Flair went on to say that he would “of course” give Cena his blessing to break the record if he wanted to do it. Flair also said that Randy Orton is another guy that would be deserving to break the record because he’s been on top for so long.
