John Cena talks about loyalty to the WWE, Total Divas, The Rock, more
In a recent interview with FOX 411, WWE United States champion John Cena was the guest promoting his appearance in the upcoming Judd Apatow movie Trainwreck. Below is the highlights from the interview and a video of Cena discussing kids’ poor health:
FOX411: You’re starring in two movies. Are you the next Dwayne Johnson?
John Cena: There is only one Dwayne Johnson. What Dwayne has done is absolutely fantastic. He had a vision when he was here at WWE. He promotes like a mad man. We’ll see how I do with John Cena before I can be mentioned in the company of Dwyane Johnson.
FOX411: You seem like a relatively private person. Is it odd having your personal life open for public consumption?
Cena: It is weird. When they came to us with the concept of “Total Divas” it wasn’t so accepted around [the WWE]. Those girls who chose to put their lives are some of the bravest. I wanted nothing but success for her.
FOX411: You recently said you would never leave the WWE. Why are you so loyal?
Cena: There will be a time when I won’t be able to perform in the ring. I’m 38-years-old. So, if I’m not in the ring I want to be involved in some way. I love it! I watch every single match because I enjoy it. It’s been 12 or 13 years now, the audience is so exciting and electric. It keeps me coming back.
FOX411: If you could face-off against any wrestler dead or alive who would it be, and who would win?
Cena: Past: Stone Cold Steve Austin because he was truly inspiration to me. Our audience wouldn’t mind seeing that. In the same breath there are some present stars that I haven’t faced off with. Hopefully, down the line I look forward to facing those new faces.
