It is currently John Cena month in the WWE as they celebrate Cena’s 20th anniversary with the promotion. Over the years we have heard of Cena giving advice to fellow young talents in the pro wrestling industry, especially with stars like Austin Theory.
While speaking in a new video in celebration of John Cena’s 20th anniversary with WWE, Cody Rhodes revealed what advice Cena gave him when fans started booing him.
“Best advice John Cena ever gave me, twofold. The first thing was rather recently, I was going through a polarizing time in my career. We were getting for the first time in my career a ‘Let’s go Cody, Cody sucks’ type thing and he very eloquently told me to be honest with myself, as to why a crowd would react that way. Look in the mirror, and if you feel you’re doing the right thing, keep doing it.”
“Second piece of advice is that the crowd starts making any noise, in any capacity, they start clapping their hands, they start stomping their feet. They want you to fight back, something, then you have to reward them.”

Cody clearly values the advice he got from the 16 time world champion and it sounds like Cena really wanted to help the former AEW star. What do you make of Cena’s advice? Let us know in the comments section and on our social media pages.
