“I felt like Superman. I felt completely invincible walking out there because I knew that was my house, those are my people, and this was my match. So, I couldn’t have felt better, you know, like confidence through the roof. The normal pressure that I had before a match of not wanting to screw up, you know, I put myself at high risk situations and to fail something like that would just be the worst thing in the world to me,” he said.

WWE star breaks character to comment on wrestling John Cena

Dominik Mysterio broke character to discuss getting to battle John Cena during his WWE retirement tour.

Dirty Dom captured the Intercontinental Championship from Cena at Survivor Series 2025 but has since lost the title to Penta on WWE RAW. Speaking with Brad Gilmore on The Collection, The Judgment Day star noted that it was a surreal opportunity to face Cena.

“Super, super surreal. Not only was it John Cena’s last PLE, last Survivor Series, it was [also] the first wrestling event ever held at Petco Park in San Diego. Bro, I’m born and raised in San Diego… I lived there. I did a bunch of s**t I shouldn’t have done in downtown San Diego as well… But man, that was just so surreal for me. Walking in, in the city where I’m from, walking out as a double champion, beating John Cena. That s**t’s insane, man. You can’t write it. Stuff like that it just writes itself. It’s like a fairytale ending for me,” he said.

It will be interesting to see if Cena makes any appearances on WWE television on the road to WrestleMania 42.
