Inside Scoop: Bishop Dyer Shares Previously Untold John Cena Story
In a revealing interview on “Busted Open Radio,” Bishop Dyer (formerly known as Baron Corbin in WWE) has shared fascinating insights about John Cena’s shocking heel turn at WWE Elimination Chamber, including a private conversation that makes this character shift even more surprising.
The Conversation That Makes This Turn Even More Historic
During his WWE tenure, Dyer had significant interactions with Cena that led him to believe a heel turn would never materialize. The former United States Champion revealed a stunning conversation where Cena was adamant about maintaining his characteristic persona:
> “He always told me ‘This is me for life,'” Dyer recalled. “‘I’m John Cena, ‘You can’t see me,’ for life. That’s all I’m ever going to be because that’s what worked, and that’s what we stick with.'”
Parallels to Roman Reigns’ Character Evolution
Dyer drew interesting comparisons between Cena’s recent turn and Roman Reigns‘ transformation into the Tribal Chief, noting how both shifts have reinvigorated their characters. He emphasized that Cena’s turn “shook the world” and predicted it “will forever be one of the greatest turns of all time.”
What Fans Can Expect From Heel Cena
According to Dyer, fans shouldn’t expect any breaking of kayfabe from the new villainous Cena. The former WWE superstar warned that this isn’t just an in-ring persona:
> “He’s not a guy that’s just going to go out and do the promo and go in the back and hug a bunch of kids. He’s going to see it through. He’s going to be on the dark side, and he’s going to hurt some people’s feelings.”
The Road Ahead
With WrestleMania 40 approaching and Cena aligned with The Rock against Cody Rhodes, the wrestling world is buzzing with speculation about how far this new character will go. Will this be the defining heel run that changes Cena’s legacy forever?
