Max Caster is one-half of the AEW World Tag Team Champions and he is always a highlight of AEW television. After all, fans simply stay quiet and listen whenever Caster drops his bars.
While speaking with AJ Awesome on The AJ Awesome Show, Caster was asked to name his inspirations as a wrestler. Caster named John Cena and revealed that the Leader Of Cenation told Caster he does the rap gimmick better than Cena himself does.
“John Cena is a huge inspiration. I’ve never met him, but he reaches out to me from time to time. He’s been very, very nice, and for my hero as a teenager to reach out to me and, in the midst of people saying, ‘Oh, you’re a Cena rip-off, you’re just doing something that’s old, we don’t want to see this in wrestling now,’ for him to reach out and say, ‘You’re doing it the right way,’ sometimes he says I do it better than he did, it’s his opinion. I don’t know if I wanna agree with that, but I believe in myself, 100%, and his confidence in me only boosts me up. I don’t know if he knows how much that means, but it means a lot. So he’s my inspiration back then and now still,

Max Caster also previously stated that John Cena had been very nice to him when he didn’t need to be. He would also eventually welcome the comparisons to The Doctor Of Thuganomics. Caster will forever have respect for John Cena and that’s all that matters to him.
