The two stars were on the same team and were best friends on the show. Ryder, while injured, was even used to torture Cena, as Kane threw the star off the stage.The two even became rivals, after Cena "stole" Ryder's then girlfriend, Eva Marie in the storyline.Cena even mentioned him in the pipebomb he delivered earlier this year.
