The duo started feuding in 2006. Their rivalry ultimately saw RVD cashing in his Money In The Bank contract and defeating John Cena at ECW ‘One Night Stand.’ Resultantly, he became the WWE Champion for the first and only time in his career.

RVD said that John Cena is one of the best wrestlers to work with. Now that Cena is focusing more on his other projects, RVD feels Cena will be more powerful than The Rock in Hollywood.

“I think that he’ll have his own path, and I think that he’ll do very well. He’s already doing very well. I think that Rock has carved out his own path that’s probably gonna just for The Rock.”
