John Cena responded to rumors of his scheduled match with The Rock at WrestleMania XXVIII being in jeopardy.
A fan asked, “Any truth to the rumours that a top WWE exec wants your match with The Rock removed from the WM 28 card?”
He responded, “none at all. That match needs to happen. If they kick us out we will fight.in parking lot.”
The rumor is attributed to the Wrestling Observer, as they reported last week that a high-ranking executive with great influence over Vince McMahon is lobbying for the match in Rock’s hometown of Miami, Florida to be canceled. The executive is concerned that WWE’s premiere star, Cena, will be heavily booed during the biggest show of the year.
