John Cena’s “American Grit” TV series is coming back for a second season. FOX has reportedly renewed the series for another season, according to Deadline.com. The first season of the show struggled in the ratings as the series premiere drew 2.43 million viewers and the season finale drew 2.16 million viewers.
Cena has reduced his role in WWE as he only works selected live events and is working live episodes of SmackDown Live and pay-per-view events. Cena is still advertised for some live episodes of RAW.
While there’s no premiere date for the second season, casting for the new season is ongoing. Cena is teaming up with Leftfield Productions for the new season after they announced a partnership agreement in July.
Cena could work around his WWE schedule, but he is expected to take time off while filming American Grit.
