Johnny Gargano Says It Would Be A ‘Dream Come True’ To Compete In The John Cena Classic

Johnny Gargano says it would be a ‘dream come true’ for him to compete in the upcoming John Cena Classic at Disney World.

The upcoming John Cena Classic is set to take place at Disney World next month, with superstars from SmackDown, RAW and NXT set to face off in the event.

While speaking to WDW News Today in a new interview, Johnny Gargano spoke about the John Cena Classic, noting that it would be a dream come true to compete in it.

“I do have John Cena’s number. Look, I’m not going to call in any favors for this one. If I am chosen, it would be a dream come true. I have a great relationship with John so much so that I’ve posted about it when he was retiring, but like what he’s meant to me throughout different phases of my career. Like I met him when I was a wrestling fan, when I was like 13, 14 years old, I met him when I was just an extra talent backstage, trying to get a job. I met him when I was in NXT, I met him on the main roster and I’ve had different interactions with him at different points of my career and the one thing I will say about John is the thing I remember the most is he was the same every single time I met him and he was so true and so willing to give time and so if a guy like that John Cena at the top of the mountain has time for guys like me at the time who was just an extra talent, I always remember man if that guy can do it, no one else has any excuse because he is the man, he’s the GOAT for a reason.”

Elsewhere in another recent interview, Josh Bishop noted that Johnny gave him the best advice he’s received in pro wrestling. You can read more about that here.
