John Cena may be a bonafide Hollywood star now, but he’ll always be a WWE superstar at heart. Speaking to the Belfast Telegraph for his upcoming film “Playing With Fire,” Cena spoke about his past, and said that 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 went on to say that he never wants to be known as not a wrestler, because he’ll always feel like one. “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.”
