Former WWE star Matthew Rehwoldt thinks Sami Zayn could dethrone John Cena

Speaking on the Rebooked Wrestling podcast, ex-WWE star Matthew Rehwoldt, formerly known as Aiden English, discussed the possibility of Sami Zayn being the one to dethrone Cena over Cody Rhodes.

"I could see a thing where you could have a little bit of a WrestleMania 30 Daniel Bryan kind of story with Sami Zayn, but he stumbles along his way. And knowing John Cena, the whole heel run is very unconventional, and he wanted to try something different. And John is very giving with big moments, and I know he wants to lift other people up. So, I see him, not just like a Cody Rhodes or a Randy Orton, wanting to do something momentous and memorable stuff on his way out. So, out of all kinds of mid- and upper-level contenders who have never gotten it, I think Sami's our guy," English said.

The Cenation Leader will have to overcome CM Punk at WWE Night of Champions for the potential Sami Zayn match to happen.
