Theory 'Confident' About Getting WrestleMania Match With John Cena

Theory has the world at his feet in WWE, with the 2022 Money in the Bank winner surely on a path to the main event scene. But when Theory gets there he wants to face John Cena, on the grandest stage of them all.

The two had an 'awkward' interaction on Raw in June and during an interview with CBS Sports' Shakiel Mahjouri, Theory spoke of his relationship with Cena away from the ring:

"It's so weird to meet somebody and pretty much have to explain to them, 'I modelled my whole life after you.' It's one of those things as a kid getting bullied, my dad not being in my life a lot. Cena, I could watch him and just escape. It was the connection to his personality," Theory said. "And that's something I learned from him. He told me, 'Don't ever think people go out there and want people to connect to their performance. Nobody will connect to your performance unless they connect to your personality.’

"I started thinking, even with that process through NXT to finally being drafted to Raw officially, it was a time to figure stuff out. How can I connect to them with my personality? This is a world in WWE where everybody can kill it in the ring. Everyone can go hard in the ring. So what's going to set you aside from killing it in the ring? I learned that from him.”

As for facing the multi-time World Champion, Theory is confident they’ll one day tangle at WrestleMania:

"You know what? I will say that I'm pretty confident that could happen. For sure. And I want that to happen,” concluded Theory.
