Seth Rollins and John Cena have had some notable matches while in WWE, including their SummerSlam bout in 2015, where Rollins went over Cena with the help of Jon Stewart.
Cena is featured on the WWE 2K23 cover, where fans can play through some of the most legendary matches of his career.
While speaking with Pro Wrestling Illustrated over Royal Rumble weekend, Rollins gave him high praise by noting he thinks he is the greatest of all-time.
“John’s the GOAT. John’s the best. John is incredible. I’m a footnote, really, in his career, you know, John influenced so many talents over the years. He was a generational guy. For me, though, on the other side of that, John influenced what I do so heavily. I took a ton of inspiration from John. I learned a lot being in the ring with John. I learned a lot watching John behind the scenes. John still is a mentor to me, even now that he’s not around that often. It’s awesome to see him portrayed in this way (WWE 2K23 cover), the legend that he is. I’m very excited to see what his story mode looks like throughout the game. I’m just a bit part of that. So it’s my pleasure and my honor to be even a little footnote in the story of John Cena,” Rollins stated.
