Meanwhile, former NXT North American Champion Dirty Dominik Mysterio recently expressed his hatred towards the veteran in a recent interview.

The Judgement Day member and Liv Morgan's on-screen boyfriend recently explained that he hated John Cena due to personal reasons in an interview with MuscleManMalcolm. Dominik opened up about his experience wrestling Cena and also addressed his loss:

"Unfortunately I wrestled John Cena in a dark match one time and it did not go my way. I was the NXT North American Champion at the time so I had other things on my mind." [From 00:55 to 01:05]

Dom added:

"I hate Cena for personal reasons but I would love to get back in there with him. I was definitely unprepared I had other things on my mind so I'd definitely like to run it back." [From 01:39 to 01:50]

"Emotional, emotional. I'm in there face to face, the crowd going crazy. It's kind of crazy because I can't hear nobody but him, me and him in there. Before we start to get rocking, 'I'm happy for you Uce,'"said Jey

Uso now has to choose his WrestleMania opponent while Cena hopes to survive the Elimination Chamber. Fans are excited to see what happens with both superstars in the near future.
