John Cena Says He Regrets Making His Rivalry With Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson So Personal

John Cena's rivalry with The Rock was definitely memorable, but many fans have pointed out the hypocrisy of Cena's comments about Dwayne Johnson abandoning WWE for the bright lights of Hollywood when he's now doing the exact same thing.

Now, it's the leader of the Cenation who is arguably the "sell-out," and he's admitted to having regrets about how personal their feud often became. 

"I said some things that were less than nice," Cena told The Sun in a recent interview. "He said some things that were less than nice. And I can assure you, in our line of work there is a grey area where imagination becomes very real and we were right in the sweet spot of that grey area, each watching the other's every move and not too happy with the other party."

"It was stupid of me," he added. "It genuinely was. That was my perspective at the time."

In recent years, it's become clear that the two men have buried the hatchet, but it's hard not to wonder how Johnson feels about Cena (and we mean this in the nicest way possible) being a less successful version of him. Still, with The Suicide Squad and a number of other high profile projects on the way, his star is definitely on the rise.
