‘You’re a Grown A** Man’: John Cena Gets Disrespected on His 20TH Anniversary in WWE by Potential Future Opponent

John Cena is one of the most influential wrestlers for every person looking to get into the industry. Recently, WWE celebrated Cena’s 20 years of his debut in the company. While there was a lot of fanfare with new superstars getting a backstage segment with the legend on the mic himself, Doctor of Thugonomics.

While every interaction and video message was full of love and admiration for the former WWE Champion, some even from current AEW Superstars chiming in to tell their buddy congrats, one stuck out like an ugly duck. And he could be the next opponent that Cena might end up facing.

Austin Theory’s choice of words for John Cena

In a backstage segment, Austin Theory popped behind John Cena and started his rant saying, “I didn’t introduce myself, but I’m sure you already know who I am. Hell, everybody knows who Theory is. No, n0, no, no, no, no, you always get to talk. We’re gonna celebrate you tonight, at least they are, but me, they should be celebrating me. I’m on Monday Night Raw every week. I’m putting it down, A-Town Down.”

“Look at you, you don’t even know what that means, John, you’re so out of touch. And you talk about never giving up, well I can do this all day. And I just one-upped you there. I mean, look at me, I’m 24, the youngest United States Champion in WWE History”

“At 24, how many championships did you have? Huh, none. And then what? You weren’t even with WWE, John. Look at me, Mr. McMahon’s hand-picked protégé. This body, these arms, this championship, this can’t be touched. And you? It’s 2022, and you’re a grown-a** man, and you’re still wearing shorts. You know what Imma capture this,” Theory said.

Is Austin Theory worthy of being John Cena’s opponent?

Well, it goes without saying that Vince McMahon is in love with wrestlers who have a specific body type and excellent mic skills, anything above that is just a cherry on top. Wrestlers like Stone Cold, The Rock, Bret Hart, Hulk Hogan, Triple H, and John Cena have one thing in common.

They are all the muscular heavyweight wrestlers who are above decent on the mic, some even being legends on the mic. And Theory resembles it to a T. So, it is a no-brainer that Vince McMahon took a liking to the boy and is projecting him to be the major star in a few years.

And it is not like that is all Theory has going for himself. His matches with Keith Lee, Johnny Gargano, and Adam Cole are just some of the EVOLVE matches that cement him as one of the brightest stars when it comes to pro wrestling.
