At the WWE Elimination Chamber post-show, WWE CCO Paul ‘Triple H’ Levesque addressed John Cena’s shocking heel turn in Toronto. Levesque, who has shared the ring with Cena in the past, admitted that what happened in the Rogers Centre may have been the most powerful moment he’s experienced.
“I’ve been fortunate to have been around a lot of the biggest things in this business in the last , say 30 years. I don’t know if I’ve ever felt a more powerful moment.”
Levesque said that this moment was one fans didn’t see coming, and one that John didn’t need to do. Rather than rest on his laurels as a nostalgia act, Cena is continuing to develop his character, a dedication to the craft Levesque finds admirable.
“It is now or never, and you can ride that out and rest on the things you have done, and you couldn’t really blame John for doing that… or somebody like him can double down and say ‘Screw it, I want to be challenged to the last moment.'”
Cena’s heel turn blew the expectations fans had for Elimination Chamber out of the water, Levesque added. With WWE’s ‘Greatest Of All Time’ now aligned with the Final Boss, the road to WrestleMania is well underway, and proving to be one of the most unpredictable journies to WWE’s grandest event of the year.
