I was reading a recent interview with Tyler Rex and he had some harsh things to say about Cena. Then he said Riley would be over as hell if it wasn't "you know who" holding him down. I have heard before that Cena & Riley have heat but I'm not sure over what.
While I'm not the biggest Riley fan I've been to live events where when his music hits the dude gets one of the biggest pops of the night.
Anyone know of any heat and the reason for the heat between Cena & Riley?

I always thought most of Riley's heat came from his DUI and sandbagging Swagger...

Wasn't Cena poking fun at Riley, Riley asked him to stop and Cena kept on going, so Riley retaliated?

You know who could be anybody... Vince, Triple H, Stephanie, etc.
But what harsh things did he say about Cena?

It's a shame too.. Alex Riley is pretty awesome.
edit*
Apparently Cena was ribbing Riley in front of their peers and Alex Riley flipped on him and acted irrational.. Calling Cena out on it. Which is a no-no backstage..

Urghh, I'm surprised Riley still has a job, don't see why people like him. /:

I'm a Riley fan and the way they set him up after Miz turned on him was golden. He main evented Raw a few times and had the fan's support. I can echo the OP's experience at live events- Riley gets a great pop. It's a shame they're holding him back because I really think he can be a big player in WWE. IMO, he has the right look and size to really hold his own in WWE.

I thought the reason Riley never got pushed was due to the fact he was just so plain and boring

Riley's music gets an okay pop because it's a great theme. But he hasn't ever been over when he wasn't in the ring with The Miz. And I doubt, with his screw-ups in and out of the ring, he'll ever be more than a bit player.

I know this isn't saying much, but he's the most over guy whenever he's on superstars. He gets a very loud reaction.
Think if they used him right, he could go places.

Riley appeared at both house shows I attended this year and his pop was absolutely huge. That seems to be consistent. The crowd loves the guy. Clearly there's some issue backstage that weighs him down, but who knows what is and isn't true. |
