R-Truth Reveals One John Cena Advice That Resonated With Him

ByAnutosh BajpaiProfessional Wrestling Journalist

R-Truth has revealed the best advice he received from John Cena.

The Attitude Era star has been associated with the Cenation Leader in various ways during his WWE career. Calling the 17-time world champion his \’childhood hero,\’ Truth has dressed up as the fellow wrestling veteran on many occasions and dubbed himself \’Ron Cena.\’

During his recent appearance on the Nikki and Brie Show, the 54-year-old discussed John Cena\’s influence on his career. He revealed the one piece of advice from the former face of WWE that resonated with him the most:

\”One that kind of really resonated with me that Cena told me, and told me this maybe three years ago, but it took me to be a grown man to like… he said, \’Truth, one heel at a time,\’ and it resonated with me. Like damn. I try to do so much. Whether it’s please, or whether it’s accomplish, I try to do so much. Focus on one thing, get that done, and move on to the next, so one heel at a time.\”

R-Truth got to work with John Cena in his recently concluded retirement tour around the same time he was fired and re-hired by WWE. Cena first defeated him at Saturday Night\’s Main Event, before a SmackDown rematch that ended in a disqualification.

The former K-Kwik has not officially been announced for the Royal Rumble event this Saturday but it\’s unlikely that he will miss the show.
