Former WWE announcer Jonathan Coachman was interviewed for Chris Van Vliet’s “INSIGHT” podcast. Coachman discussed his career and shared his thoughts on what is currently going on in WWE.
John Cena will retire after next year, and there is a lot of speculation about who he will face in his final match. Coachman predicts John Cena’s final opponent will be:
“Well, I think it’s gonna be Randy Orton. I really do because when you look at the fact that they’re both basically at the same number of World Championships, Randy has come from the kid I knew at 19 years old to where he is now. I’m so incredibly proud of what he’s done and the maturity that he’s had. Cena, I traveled with him for many, many months, and I know that if you watch, whether it was the two hours he sat down with you, whether the interview that he just did with Club Shay Shay, where I thought he was ridiculous for talking about Roman Reigns being the GOAT, but that’s what he believes and when he believes in something, that’s what he’s going to do. I believe that he’s got everything mapped out to the opponent for WrestleMania.”
If he feels John Cena will have another title run in WWE:
“I think he wins at WrestleMania, because I think, and this may be controversial to say as well, but the way Ric Flair has moved the last couple of years, people love him. I have a great affection for him. He every so often, ‘I’m going to retire. I’m going to retire. I’m going to retire.’ He’s now, what, nearly 80 years old and he’s still out there hawking weed and doing all these things. I just don’t know if at the end of the day, and this is very petty if they do this, but I don’t know if the powers that be at WWE want Ric to be that name that’s always at the top of the mountain.”
