A big WWE star recently broke character to appreciate John Cena after facing a defeat against him. Cena will be in action later this month at WWE Wrestlepalooza in Indianapolis, Indiana.

John Cena defeated Logan Paul at Clash in Paris last month in France. Speaking on the latest episode of the Impaulsive podcast, Paul broke his character to compliment The Cenation Leader and appreciated how good he was in the ring.

"I didn’t win, so no. It was really long, I think it was 25 minutes. About halfway through the match, I felt very viscerally two things. One, holy sh*t, John Cena is so f***ing good. He is that good," said Paul.

 

 

The Maverick also shared that he learned a lot from the 48-year-old during their fight at Clash in Paris.

"It felt like I was kind of at school and as an absorber of knowledge and someone who wants to be the best, I’m trying to just take in as much information and knowledge as I can while I’m in the ring with the greatest of all time in what will be my last match with him on his retirement tour. He’s not coming back, that was my last match with John Cena," he added. [H/T: Fightful]
