John Cena’s retirement tour brought back plenty of nostalgia for each fans of the now-retired veteran and those that shared the ring with him over his two-decade WWE profession. In an episode of his “Marking Out” podcast, MVP recalled a moment where Cena went the additional mile for him and helped him recover from with the fans as a babyface.
MVP recalled the 12 months when the Denver Nuggets went to the playoffs against the Los Angles Lakers, resulting in a WWE show getting cancelled and Vince McMahon becoming unhappy, and booking the Staples Center as a substitute to have a themed match for each teams.
“That night I came upon I used to be going to be in a five-man tag team match, on the time I used to be a babyface, where I’d be wearing a Laker’s jersey, and our opposition, the heels, would wear Denver’s jerseys,” he said, adding that Cena suggested the 2 of them team as much as do a move together. “Cena says ‘Hey P, how about if…I are available in, and I do the Five-Knuckle Shuffle, you do the Ballin’, but we drop it at the identical time?'”
The veteran claimed he didn’t hesitate to take Cena up on the offer but admitted that based on where he was on the cardboard on the time, he would’ve never thought to suggest the team-up to Cena.
“Presently, Ballin’, , was pretty over, but to do it with Cena and the Five-Knuckle Shuffle? Elevates it and…what a option to get me over as a babyface!”
