WWE NXT's Zilla Fatu Comments On John Cena Classic Invitation

The John Cena Classic is finally moving forward after John Cena himself appeared on "RAW," announcing that the tournament is set to take place on December 14th. Since then, he's announced that both Cody Rhodes and the newly signed Zilla Fatu will be entrants in the tournament.

Since being invited to take part in the tournament, Zilla has gone so far as to share his thoughts on the honor and moment with Cena in an episode of his YouTube Vlog. 

"The Main One has been invited to the John Cena Classic, man," Zilla reflected. "December 14th it goes down at Disney World...Look how far we came? And we already brushed shoulders with John Cena, let alone invite us out to Disney World for the first John Cena Classic? It don't get better than this."

Zilla then turned his focus to the briefcase he received from Cena upon his invitation to the tournament, and speculated what he believed could be inside. 

"What if it's something that my dad maybe gave him, and he kept it since that day? Or what if it's like an in-ring gear that he had on while he wrestled my dad – that would be crazy," he said. He then went through the briefcase, revealing a slew of items included inside, which all have some kind of tie to the tournament, including some merch for Zilla specifically.

Cena has also shed more light on the details surrounding the tournament during a recent interview, detailing the setup, his reasons behind hosting the tournament in the first place, and what he expects to achieve through it.
