I've seen quite a few of John Cena's interviews and one thing I notice is that he always interacts with the crowd, feels like he's not just talking to the interviewer but the entire audience too, which is very nice of him.

[@mundial200]

Wrestling is driven by the fans, what works or not, and John Cena had that amazing ability, making him the most asked celebrity to do Make a Wish requests, he's an amazing entertainer that gives his all to the fans 🤗

[@TheGrandGamers]

I saw John Cena driving once, it was on U.S. 41 somewhere near Lutz, Florida. He was driving a car that looked like a god damned spaceship. Some crazy sports car, I forget the name but it's not in any of the pictures of his collections online. A convertible, that's how we knew. I drove alongside him on the right, my ex at the time had my phone recording to grab a very shaky still from as a souvenior. Eventually, as good drivers do, particularly ones in cars that cost more than a house, he glanced over to see what object had come into his peripheral vision. All he saw was a driverless Toyota Camry, with a woman holding a phone in the passenger seat. John Cena could not see me. It's one of my life's crowning achievements.

[@EmpyreanLightASMR]

I love this story. And I hope someone asks him what car that was someday.

[@lobokuklinski812]

John Cena comes off as a genuinely good guy. He's a huge baseball fan. Not that that has anything to do with it, but in my book, it does.

[@00000000000101010]

He does come off that way, and then he kowtows to the chinese communist party's every whim...now I think the term nice guy would be better, good people stand up to evil.

[@saimcheeda93]

John was huge back then compared to today

[@DaylinThaGemini]

He focused on flexibility for movie roles and more cardio so he's leaner like his earlier days from 2002-2005 instead of being a block of muscle mass from 2006-2016. He still looks good, but he's no longer focused on mass. He just keeps his weight down so he can look well defined on movie screens.
