WWE star John Cena admits regret at row with Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson in revealing interview and says it ‘was stupid’ – The Sun

JOHN CENA has revealed he regrets his feud with Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson.

Cena and Johnson fought in consecutive Wrestlemania main events in 2012 and 2013.

Cena admitted in a Q&A session things ended up "pretty personal" between the pair.

Cena has himself made strides in the entertainment industry over the past few years, starring in comedies such as Trainwreck, Blockers and Daddy's Home as well as Transformers spin-off Bumblebee.
