John Cena’s father, John Cena Sr., recently did an interview with Boston Wrestling Sports. During the interview, he talked about his dislike for WWE Champion Jinder Mahal. Here is what he had to say:
“I don’t think he’s a good champion, I don’t think he’s a worthy champion,” Cena Sr. said. “I think they need to get somebody in there that can get people involved in the championship matches… I don’t think he’s the man for the job.”
“I’m not impressed,” Cena Sr. continued. “There are other people I can see holding that belt. The fans are gonna get pretty tired, pretty fast,” he said. “They don’t like Mahal to start with, and not because he’s a good heel, it’s because he can’t wrestle.”
“He’s not even close to being a JBL. Mahal is in there for one reason: they want the Indian market,” Cena Sr. said. “What better way to get it than to have the champion into the country you’re going? And he’s gonna hold that when he comes out of India, he’s gonna hold that for a while for whatever reason. To upset the fans, maybe? Perhaps. But he certainly is not the same caliber of JBL. He doesn’t have the arrogance, the ability, nor the characterization, nor the wrestling ability!”
