Tyler Reks

Former WWE Superstar Tyler Reks isn't one of the most well-remembered wrestlers. Signing with WWE in 2008, he was with the company for around four years before parting ways. Recently, during an interview with The Hannibal TV, Reks spoke about his issues with John Cena.

Tyles Reks used the Burning Hammer as his finisher, which looked like an inverted Attitude Adjustment, John Cena's finisher. Reks revealed how John Cena was not happy with it and asked him to change his finisher.

”So I’m thinking that he’s joking and given what I said, ‘ hey we’ll get it right tomorrow, we kind of screwed it up, we’ll be better’, knowing that I did it in front of him many many times, he knows exactly what it is, next day we go to the next show and Primo’s like ‘Hey, should we change it?’ and I said ‘John Cena’s saw me do it a million times, I think he was just saying get it right so it doesn’t look like his FU."

Tyler Reks on John Cena yelling at him backstage

Tyles Reks went on to reveal that John Cena lost his cool and yelled at him for using that finisher again.

“So we go out there and I hit it, hit it perfect, like sweet. Crowd goes..wild.. whatever you want to call it. I walk back and he’s there, like second I was back through the curtain. Within earshot of everybody on the roster, he’s like, ‘Hey, come here’ and I go, ‘hey, what’s up,bro?’ and he goes like ‘Didn’t I tell you to change your f**king finisher?’.”

Reks added that John Cena started pointing his finger at him and things got so heated that Cena even threatened to get him fired.
