As it turns out, John Cena thinks that Smith would be a perfect fit in WWE. While appearing on a recent episode of ESPN's First Take, Cena said that Smith is the embodiment of what the WWE is about.

“I think he would be tempted to do more than manage. He is what we do in the WWE. He’s entertaining, his personality is undeniable, he has a gravity to him. You feel a certain way about him, whether you’re a supporter or an opposition. He is what we try to achieve in the WWE. I think that’s why we such mutual respect for each other. I saw him at WrestleMania last year, he’s always so kind to us and everybody in our locker room and I think that’s because we’re kind of all in the same gang.”
