John Cena was recently interviewed on Variety’s Playback Podcast. During the interview, Cena spoke in detail about: ‘Southpaw Regional Wrestling’. The mini-series made waves on the internet when it was released on WWE’s Youtube channel several weeks ago.

John Cena’s character: “Lance Catamaran” was one of the highlights of the series. During the interview, Cena spoke about the origins of the character.
Here is how he came up with the name:
“I like you was a fan of Gordon Solie. I tried to get a little bit — even thinking of the name, Lance Russell came to mind — and I tried to get a commentary name that would sound like Lance Russell, but not Lance Russell. Almost sound like Ron Burgundy. I remember passing the Catamaran Hotel in San Diego, and I went, “Lance Catamaran. Holy shit. That’s it. It’s Lance Catamaran. It sounds like a sailboat. It’s distinguished. He’s Lance Catamaran.”
Also, the best part is, more ‘Southpaw Regional Wrestling’ is coming!
“It was really fun, and there’s more on the way. I’m much looking forward to it”
