On the latest edition of Grilling JR, Jim Ross discussed John Cenaās legacy in professional wrestling, saying he would put Cena in his top five babyfaces in WWE history and would put him on his Mount Rushmore of WWE stars.
āIf John Cenaās not on the Mt. Rushmore of WWE stars, then there donāt need to be a Mt. Rushmore. Knock it down and build an apartment building or something. You donāt need the mountain. Heās on that mountain and heās very firmly in place.ā
Ā āOne of the top five babyfaces in the history of WWE, without a doubt, hands down. And a personal favorite of mine because of his character and his work ethic and his integrity. You never had to worry about John Cena embarrassing the company outside or inside of the cocoon. So heās without a doubt, and thatās saying heās a top five babyface in WWE history, that includes Bruno, Hogan, Austin, Rock, Undertaker, all these dudes. He belongs in that same conversation. Top five at worst, in my estimation. Iām not going to name the top five because itās so subjective.ā
