WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash has expressed his opinion regarding rapper Travis Scott joining the faction led by John Cena and The Rock, suggesting that Randy Orton would be a far superior choice. During the electrifying event of WWE Elimination Chamber: Toronto, fans were taken by surprise when John Cena made a shocking heel turn, aligning himself with The Rock and Travis Scott.
At the climax of the show, the rapper made a dramatic entrance alongside The Rock to confront the WWE Undisputed Champion, Cody Rhodes. The Rock, in a commanding manner, demanded that Rhodes accept the role of Corporate Champion and “give his soul” to him. Although Rhodes resisted this demand, the shocking twist came when John Cena, who had previously secured a title shot for WrestleMania 41 against Rhodes, turned heel and joined forces with The Final Boss and Travis Scott.
The event concluded with Cena, The Rock, and Scott standing triumphantly on the ramp, hinting at the formation of a new and powerful alliance. During this week’s WWE RAW, Cena later elaborated on his heel turn, attributing his decision to the fans’ demands, whom he accused of treating him like a puppet. He firmly stated that he was severing ties with them, indicating a shift in his character and a new direction in his WWE journey.

Despite the dramatic turn of events, Cena did not confirm his official alignment with The Rock and Travis Scott, leaving fans speculating about the potential formation of a new heel faction. WWE legend Kevin Nash has voiced his opinion that Travis Scott may not be the best fit for this alliance and has proposed that Randy Orton would be a more suitable candidate to join Cena and The Rock.
Kevin Nash Advocates for Randy Orton’s Inclusion in Cena & The Rock’s Faction Instead of Travis Scott
On his podcast, Kliq This, Kevin Nash elaborated on his belief that incorporating a seasoned veteran like Randy Orton into the mix would be a more strategic move than adding Travis Scott. He articulated, “Have Randy Orton join Cena and Rock. It may seem like a copycat idea now, but if you package it right… I don’t think Travis Scott is the right guy to be out there as the third wheel. You would want someone with gravitas, like if you could secure [Steve] Austin or ‘Taker to make a return, that would bring a different dynamic to the group… You know what I mean? It’s a different era. None of the newer guys fit. But Randy looks phenomenal right now.” [H/T: Ewrestlingnews]

As WWE gears up for WrestleMania 41, Randy Orton is set to face Kevin Owens, continuing his babyface run while engaging in a heated feud with Owens. Conversely, John Cena remains laser-focused on his upcoming confrontation with Cody Rhodes.
However, there is growing anticipation that Orton and Cena may soon cross paths. WWE recently revealed that Backlash will occur in St. Louis, Orton’s hometown, on May 10, which has led many fans to speculate that this event could feature a highly anticipated showdown between Cena and Orton.
