Speaking with Scott Fishman for SEScoops , Matt Cardona was asked to comment on John Cena’s retirement and whether he wanted to face him.

“John, I’ve looked up to John for a long time,” Matt Cardona said. “We did get close during my WWE run, but he is just a pro’s pro. What a way to go out. What a smart way to go out, huh? A whole year plus, because he’s hyping it up in July? I’m just thinking the merch, he already had the merch ready. John is such a great guy, somebody who’s definitely helped me in my career.

“Those posts I’ve been making on social media, they’re not BS. I would love to wrestle John Cena one last time. I think, with the way WWE is now, I think it’s something that could happen, where I could just walk in, whether it be for one day or make a return.”
