A free podcast from POISONRANA!
Braden Herrington and Davie Portman present the inaugural episode of “The Champ is Here” kicking off a journey through every one of John Cena's legendary world title reigns!
Braden & Davie are joined by special guests Nate Milton (NWA on POSTwrestling, Kings of Sport Podcast) and Andrew Thompson (POSTwrestling) to dive deep into Cena's rise to the top in the WWE.
The time is now.
In this (extensive) episode, we explore Cena's early career, from his explosive debut, to the Prototype, to his freestyle raps, to the reign of terror, and even his album.
The lads break down his key moments, matches & rivalries from 2002-2005, including the intense feud with JBL that led him to his first WWE World Championship… and so much more!
