“Christiano Ronaldo is the only famous player I know.” I was lucky enough to meet him in London. If I played football, I would sit on the bench.

WWE superstar John Cena has expressed his fandom of the Portuguese soccer player Cristiano Ronaldo. In a recent interview, the wrestler stated that for him the Portuguese legend is the best in the world. This statement from John Cena has come, amidst the rumor of CR7 making his debut appearance in the WWE.

John Cena said, “If I had to name the best player, I would start and end with Cristiano Ronaldo. That’s it”. There always has been a debate in the soccer world regarding the best choice between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. However, it seems like, Cena has settled the debate on his part.

There have been rumors of CR7 making his first WWE appearance in the form of a guest. This could happen at an event in Saudi Arabia. Apparently, Portugal’s number seven is currently also settled in Saudi, with his latest stint with the Saudi Pro League club Al Nassr. WWE is supposed to host this year’s Crown Jewel at the Arabs.

However, nothing has been confirmed regarding the 38-year-old’s presence at the event. But, reports have it that the WWE’s hierarchy is planning its best to bring him as a part of the show. Fans would be really excited to see their idol at a stage, where he has never appeared earlier, if it happens.

John Cena has been a WWE legend over the years. In his twenty-one-year-long career in the wrestling industry so far, the veteran has won over so many global fans. Cena has defeated some of the most illustrious names in the WWE including – Big Show, Mark Henry, Brock Lesnar, and Triple H.

WWE stars with whom Cristiano Ronaldo can share the center stage at Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia

With the reports of John Cena praising Ronaldo ahead of his reported WWE debut, the 38-year-old soccer star could share the stage with Cena. It would be on the list of WWE to make the night a memorable one for the fans. If CR7 does turn up, what better it would be for the fans, to see both the superstars sharing the platform?

There has been a sudden rise of LA Knight in WWE. His slogans and chants have struck a chord among the fans. WWE might be tempted to enhance LA Knight’s reputation even more. They could make him do a small section with Portugal’s number seven. However, it remains to be seen, if CR7 does make a WWE guest debut, how it would turn out to be.
