John Cena on WWE Live Blog for Night of Champions 2008

WWE Fan Nation is doing Live Blogs during WWE televised events. If you can't go to an event in person, turn on the TV and plop the laptop on the couch... blog while you watch TV! For 2008 Night of Champions, John Cena joined the Live Blog for about half an hour to answer questions from fans. Below is an excerpt of the Live Blog with Cena answering fan questions.

And I have to admit... I have enjoyed Cena but never been a die-hard fan (like Shannon is). But in the Live Blog, Cena throws in a reference to Blades of Glory... perhaps one of the most important historical comedies of our times (hehehe). I giggled with glee when I read Cena's response to whether or not he would do Tag Team division again. Comedy is a way to a gal's heart.

7:33
John Cena - The (future) Champ is here!
7:33
Corey Clayton - Thanks John for joining us today on WWE Fan Nation. Glad you could take a few minutes before your big match tonight with Triple H.
7:33
Corey Clayton - We have a ton of questions from the fans.... lets get started....

7:35
Corey Clayton - First off, many fans want to know what your mindset is going into your WWE Championship Match tonight against Triple H ... what are your thoughts just hours before you face The Game?
7:35
John Cena - Tonight has the feel of a big match. There is more electricity in the arena than there is at a normal PPV.
7:36
Corey Clayton - Question From Tonya ... First of all, good luck tonight! I love you, and I know your going to win. If you could pick one thing in your life to live over again, what would it be, and why?
7:37
John Cena - My relationship with Mickie James because it was over much too soon.
7:37
Corey Clayton - A question from Andrea....
7:37
[Comment From Andrea Williams]
Cena being in the Raw brand, would you like to been drafted to a different brand?
7:38
John Cena - It doesn't really matter where Im at as long as I can do what I do.
7:39
Corey Clayton - Speaking of which, your opponent tonight was drafted to SmackDown, which now has two World Champions. Are you glad to see The Game move to SmackDown? And are you looking to win the title not just for yourself, but for Raw as well?
7:40
John Cena - It is a big night for the Raw brand as right now we have no World Champion. I personally was not happy to see Triple H get traded. He and Jim Ross just seem to belong on RAW.
7:41
Corey Clayton - Lots of fans were wondering how you personally prepare for a big match like tonight? Any superstitions? Anything to get mentally focused?
7:42
John Cena - I try to stay as relaxed as possible. I don't have any set preparation. Life moves very fast I look forward to the moment.
7:43
Corey Clayton - Here's a question about your music career from Jade...
7:43
[Comment From Jade]
I love your first Cd when the next one will come?
7:44
John Cena - I have just recently recorded a single with Snoop Dogg which should be on his MySpace page. That has led to the possibility of a ten song downloadable project with myself, Snoop, Freddie Foxxx and The Dogg Pound.
7:47
Corey Clayton - Here's a question from RJ....
7:47
[Comment From RJ]
Would you ever consider mov ing into the tag-team division? If so, who would you consider for partners?
7:48
John Cena - It would certainly take the right partner. I have always been a lone wolf, just like Chaz Michael Michaels. I just need to fing my Jimmy McElroy...Little Orphan Awesome.
7:49
Corey Clayton - In light of the Boston Celtics' recent NBA title win .... here's a fun question from Stevie: What can Cena do to get the Bruins up to the same level as all of Boston's other teams?
7:49
John Cena - Recognize Hockey as an official sport.
7:50
Corey Clayton - Question from Patrick....
7:50
[Comment From Patrick Gerardi]
Who has been your toughest oppenent ever since you started in the WWE?
7:50
John Cena - My toughest match is always the next one.
7:51
Corey Clayton - Question from Meghan L...
7:51
[Comment From Meghan L]
does it hurt your feelings when people "boo" you
7:52
John Cena - Absolutely not. What hurts my feelings the most is hen people don't show up. It is a fan's right to choose who they cheer and boo. All I can do is be me.
7:52
Corey Clayton - Lots of fans have questions about your upcoming film, "12 Rounds". Can you tell the fans a little about the film and what it was like to shoot a film while keeping your WWE schedule?
7:53
John Cena - The filming and scheduling was difficult but not impossible. The film itself will be an interesting story based action ride that is slightly more realistic than The Marine.
7:54
Corey Clayton - A question from Allison ...
7:54
[Comment From Allison]
if you could wrestle anyone from past or present, who would you pick?
7:54
John Cena - Andre The Giant and I would pray to God that I was in his good graces.
7:55
Corey Clayton - Question from Felix: How long does your body need to recover from a match?
7:55
John Cena - About 24 hours, maybe a little less.
7:56
Corey Clayton - I know your mind is on your match tonight ... but do you have any thoughts or predictions on the big World Heavyweight Championship match tonight between Edge and Batista?
7:57
John Cena - Batista will win and the possibility looms that we will have two World Champions on RAW.
7:58
Corey Clayton - Question from B-Man: Your car collection is supposed to be extremely good. Out of your collection, which one is your favorite?
7:58
John Cena - 1969 Pontiac GTO
7:59
Corey Clayton - Lots of fans also asked what you would tell a young fan that wants to persue a career in the WWE? Any advice for future WWE Champions out there?
7:59
John Cena - Be prepared to work harder than you have ever worked at anything in your life.
8:00
John Cena - I have time for one last question.
8:00
Corey Clayton - Lots of fans ask what strategy you'll be using tonight to take the WWE Title away from Triple H? Any tactics you'd like to reveal?
8:01
Corey Clayton - At least, provided that The Game isn't reading along....
8:01
John Cena - When going up against an opponent who is simply flawless, try not to get beat quickly and look for a late mistake.

Thanks everybody.
8:02
Corey Clayton - Thanks John for stopping by WWE Fan Nation tonight .... best of luck in your title match tonight!

Bye for now!
