Slam! Wrestling’s Greg Oliver has an interview with John Cena. The WWE Champion talks about how his sixth world title reign differs from his first and new WWE Superstar (and former opponent) Bryan Danielson.
“When you win it for the first time, I think it’s the satisfaction that you finally did it. But then the very next day you realize, okay, it’s just starting. “Now, having success for a sixth time, I know what’s in store, not only from a brand standpoint and what’s going to happen on WWE, I certainly will be in for some new challenges, but for instances such as this, I know my schedule will be completely full, just because of the fact that everybody wants to be able to interview the champ.”
“Certainly, if the locker room remembers that Velocity match a long time ago [see it on YouTube], they’re much more of the historian category than I am. We’re always happy to get any sort of talent. I think Bryan will be a wonderful acquisition for the program, as well as any of our developmental superstars,” Cena said, protecting the company’s investment in Florida Championship Wrestling.
He also listed a fair number of young talent he sees getting a chance across all three brands (Sheamus, Miz, John Morrison, Rhodes and Dibiase, and Kofi Kingston) and put over WWE programming in general, giving special props to Smackdown for reaching ten years on the air and 500 episodes.
