With John Cena nearing the end of his WWE farewell tour, he received quite the remarks from All Elite Wrestling 's Tony Khan. The AEW founder and president said that even though he's never met Cena, he knows quite a bit about his involvement in professional wrestling.

Khan sat down for an interview with Z100 New York and was asked about Cena's importance in the industry. He said he wasn't expecting that question. Still, he referred to Cena as "absolutely a legendary pro wrestler who came into the space and became a huge star very quickly on television."

The AEW co-owner credited Cena's charisma and work ethic for his success, both within WWE and in his acting career. Similar to Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Cena has built himself up from wrestling star to television and movie star.
