While his opinions about the way he steps into wrestling are his own, John Cena did admit that he sees many wrestlers who try to take their characters and portrayals into their own hands, and gave his take on their efforts as well. 

“I do see a lot of performers spend their time, invest their time, to try to curate their own destiny – and again, not wrong – it’s… The wrestling [industry] is a ‘chicken soup business’: there’s no wrong way to do it,” he noted. “I just always wanted to know what you need, the outcome you want, the piece in the chessboard I can play, and can I do it my way?” Cena further emphasized that the only time he would ever inject would be if he could get the chance to do it his way.

Either way, Cena’s career will officially come to an end this weekend on the 13^th of December when he faces GUNTHER in the upcoming Saturday Night’s Main Event. Whether or not he bests the ‘Ring General’ will be seen this weekend, but based on what Cena claimed, because it’ll be his final match, the end result will likely be his way regardless.
