John Cena recently did an interview to talk with the Belfast Telegraph to promote his “Playing With Fire” film.
During the interview, he talked about his career with WWE and his venture as an actor. Despite finding success in acting, he understands that he became a star in WWE, which is why he hopes people will always remember him as a member of the WWE family.
“I hope they always view me as a member of the WWE, because I am,” he said. “Whether it’s watching the events or being able to participate, any chance I’m given to answer this question, WWE is my family. It’s weird that the culture is, you either do this or you do that, and for 20 years I’ve been trying to tell people, ‘No, it’s all really cool.’”
Cena also went on to say that he never wants to be known as not a WWE star.
“So I don’t ever want to not be known as a WWE superstar,” he said. “I can’t perform as much as the current ones, because I’m a little bit older, and I have these cool opportunities to do other stuff, but in doing other stuff, I’m not saying that world is shut off. I’m trying to bring this world with me, so we can all be involved in a movie conversation, or a WrestleMania conversation.”
It was recently reported that WWE has big plans for Cena at WrestleMania 36. For more on that, click here.
Although Cena worked a few live events back in January and wrestled on Raw on January 7th and 14th, he hasn’t worked a PPV match since the Super Show-Down show in October 2018.
