John Cena was on ESPN Radio around 11:20 am today with Collin Cowherd (an often big critic of pro wrestling by calling wrestling fans "booger eaters" and even creating controversy by his comments about Eddie Guerrero's death). Cowherd was bored with the Tigers vs. Cardinals World Series and he claimed that he's bringing in John Cena to be a special opinion about the World Series, given Cena's hometown ties to Boston and being a Red Sox fans.
Collin said that wrestling fans are still "booger eaters", but he believes that Cena is the "absolute star of the WWE", citing his past education and success in pro wrestling. They played the Baseball Tonight theme and mixed it with Cena's wrestling theme.
- Collin asked what he thought about the big money teams being out of the World Series (Boston, New York, etc.) and Cena said it was "great" to see new teams getting a chance.
- Yesterday, there was a discussion about what NFL players would make good pro wrestlers, and they agreed that Jeremy Shockey would make a good wrestler. They then discussed Terrell Owens not being a good wrestler (too uncooperative), but Cena said he'd have a great match with Owens.
- Collin asked how Cena got into pro wrestling, despite his athletic career and his degree in exercise phisiology. He said that he was a big fan of wrestling and thought about being a wrestler when being an Offensive Lineman in college during his senior year. By chance, he found a way into the business and wrestled for 2 years in Southern California.
- Cena was asked about Alex Rodriguez and how he should be traded from the Yankees. Cena was amazed at how much a city has affected a player's ability and said that the Yankees must trade him. He said that Boston, on the other hand, embraces their players, such as accepting Manny Ramirez for "
- What is the best wrestling city? Top 5: Detroit, Chicago, New York City, Boston, and Philadelphia. East Coast is the best area, with the exception of the 2 midwest cities given.
- Collin thanked him for the interview and said afterward, that all "high brow" people will dislike that interview but that the 8 minutes of this interview will be the most heard segment of the week because of wrestling fans (whom he called "booger eaters" again). Collin said that wrestling fans can now "go back to making out with their arm".
- Collin said that he hates wrestling fans but loves having high quality wrestlers on his show. Collin asked his contributor, Compass, to try to get Hulk Hogan for a future show.
