Del Rio picked up the art of crowd control during matches from John Cena, and he called his former rival a master at taking fans on a rollercoaster of emotions.

"You know, John Cena is just so great. You know, I always say the same thing in all my interviews, like they don't give him the credit that Cena deserves. I don't even know why but I have always been a good wrestler, but I became a better wrestler the day I wrestled John Cena. That day and following matches throughout my career against Cena; I learned something from him. He was the one; he was the one teaching how to really, really listen to the crowd and be you, the performer—the one taking the crowd in that rollercoaster of emotions. You want to make them cry; you make them cry. You want to make them laugh, you make them laugh for 20-25 minutes, you are in the ring, you have that power, and he is the best one in the business to do that. So, I would love to work against John Cena again," stated Del Rio.

Mi eterno rival, @JohnCena , se despidió hoy de la afición de la lucha libre para dedicarse a sus múltiples proyectos fuera de los cuadriláteros. Que bueno saber que pudo regresar en otra posición y traer más ojos a nuestra industria. I salute you John! pic.twitter.com/XbsLSySBJ5
