Cena shared it is good and recalled only the time when there was a crack in their friendship. Cena had taken exception to The Rock’s comments about still loving the business despite not being active anymore.

Cena said, “So I would like to say in my perspective we are always been good, except for one little patch where I really messed up. I got selfish and me being living WWE at the point and not having any concept of growth or someone else’s perspective, I took Dwayne’s comments as not genuine.”

The Peacemaker star added, “It’s only when we started the build-up to New York that I got to look at myself in the mirror deeper and say I was wrong. Not only did I hope that he would understand my perspective, but a year later I could admit that my perspective was wrong.”
