Y2J on Wade Barrett’s NXT Success, Cena Responds To Critics

May 12, 2010

WWE star Chris Jericho has posted the following on his Twitter account in response to Wade Barrett being voted NXT’s number 1 rookie: "I already told all of you that Barrett is THE star of NXT. His victory is axiomatic. Jericho=success."

John Cena, who recently opened a Twitter account, had the following to say in response to several of his fan critics: "Guys, I am sorry to disappoint but what u see on TV is what u get. That’s pretty close to me in real life. I’m sorry if u think I’m watered down, I’ve been called worse."

"Guys, I really appreciate the respect for the freestyle. It would have no home in today’s environment. It would be a weak, watered down, rehash of something that was very fun to be a part of while it lasted. I still freestyle all the time, it just wouldn’t be right for me right now, I really like the place where I am, and where WWE is."
