Kurt Angle, John Cena’s first opponent, thought it would be fantastic if Cena ended his career. However, Kurt Angle has said that he would never wrestle again due to the fear of doing more damage to his body.
During a recent interview with Bill Apter of SK Wrestling, Angle spoke about Cena’s debut. He said that Cena earned the respect of the WWE Universe in his first match because he put up a great fight. Angle praised Cena for matching his level in the bout.
“Yeah, his first match against me, his first match ever, I defeated him. But he got over from it because he put up a great fight……Because I’ve always had the best conditioning in pro wrestling. And John Cena was able to match me, which was incredibly surprising.”
