John Cena is returning to WWE in a couple of days. He is going to make an appearance in this week’s Friday Night SmackDown. With that being said, Dwayne Johnson recently sent a secret message to his cousin Roman Reigns amid Cena’s return.
DJ, who recently celebrated his late father Rocky Johnson‘s “heavenly” birthday, shared a magnificent piece of advice that he might have solely directed towards ‘The Tribal Chief’, who is sitting at the top in WWE right now.
“Earning that respect never stops,” said Dwayne Johnson

Johnson logged on to Instagram to share a valuable teaching lesson his father always taught him. Rocky Johnson always told him that the only way to get respect is to earn it. And if you have already earned it and you are successful in life, then you should not let arrogance ruin it for you.
He said, “If you’re lucky enough to make it to the top or be great at whatever it is you do, that is when the next phase of earning that respect kicks in because you got to prove you are hungrier than the hungriest.”
“Because there is always somebody behind you ready to take that spot, so it all comes down to how bad you want it. It all comes down to how badly you want that respect and it never stops. Earning that respect never stops,” he added.

Reigns is currently enjoying the run of his life in WWE. He is the Undisputed Universal Champion and has been a dominant figure for around three years. With all the power in hand, he has turned haughty. So it is possible that ‘The Great One’ secretly sent this message to his cousin to mind his behavior before it’s too late.
Unlike Reigns, Cena never turned arrogant despite earning tremendous success in the wrestling industry. In fact, he has put many wrestlers in place who have turned pompous like Reigns in WWE.
The time that John Cena put Grayson Waller in his place
Grayson Waller has a pretentious personality. He likes to portray himself as superior to others and make fun of people. Megastars like Johnson and Cena have already been his targets. Just a month before, he interrupted Cena’s grand return to England and Money in the Bank and degraded him in front of the O2 arena.

Cena clapped back in the most savage way and thus put Waller in his place by delivering an Attitude Adjustment on the Australian superstar. Waller is certainly eager to get revenge on the 16-time World champion and poked the bear already.
When he got the news of Cena’s return, he humiliated ‘The Champ’ by saying that the only reason he is returning to SmackDown this Friday is because he is desperate to get the Waller rub. How will Cena respond to this insult? You will have to wait till Friday to find out.
