Recently appearing on the Best For Business podcast, Cena Sr. expressed his pride in his son for the work he has done both in and outside the squared circle.
"I've experienced a young man start from the beginning, from the very, very bottom," Cena's father claimed. "If anybody doesn't believe hustle, loyalty and respect, (he has) proven to you as an individual that you yourself, hustling and believing in yourself, being loyal to yourself and those around you, and giving respect to those close to you and around you and yourself, you can accomplish anything.
"I've seen him be at his high, I've seen him be at his low. I just take a look at this and say I am so proud of my son for what he's accomplished in the business, and what he's accomplished with Make-A-Wish."
Cena's retirement match against Gunther is at Saturday Night's Main Event in D.C. on Saturday night.
