John Cena, the WWE legend and the Hollywood actor, voiced his opinion earlier this year on the Lionel Messi vs. Cristiano Ronaldo GOAT debate. Cena, who has a different understanding of sports, has made it public that he too has a view about possibly the biggest argument in the world of football.
Who is better, is it Messi or Ronaldo? The question has outlived time and over the years it has split not only the sports world but every industry where football fans live.
While many prominent personalities have given the Argentine World Cup winner’s name as the best of the two, many believe the 5-time Balon d’Or winner is the best baller. The actual answer on who is the GOAT may never arrive. But according to the WWE 16-time WWE Champion, it is Cristiano Ronaldo.
In an interview with BBC’s Mark Lawrenson, Cena expressed openly regarding his choice for Ronaldo. “If I had to name the best player, I would start and end with Cristiano Ronaldo. That’s it.”
Recently Ronaldo also spoke a few words on the topic and said it is over. The feud was at its height when both Ronaldo and Messi were a part of the La Liga. However, both the stars have floated apart.
Ronaldo said that the rivalry is over, and it was good, a healthy feud that fanatics liked a lot.
“Whoever likes Cristiano Ronaldo doesn’t have to hate Messi or vice-versa because they’re both very good. They changed the history of football, and they keep on doing it.”
