A few years ago, in 2017, John Cena appeared on the GQ segment ‘Actually Me’ where the stars login on to several social media to answer fans’ questions. When he logged in on Facebook, he saw a question that said, “How does wrestling help you?”
Cena said, “It certainly helped me to become invisible. I’ve mastered that art. It also got me my PhD in Thuganomics with a minor in Thuganometry. It’s been very helpful to me over the years.”
The Thuganomics character is one of the most famous of Cena as he turned heel in the initial days of his career. However, he talked about the art of becoming invisible, something Dave Bautista as Drax ‘The Destroyer’ tried to master in Avenger’s Infinity War.
‘You Can’t See Me” is a running gag of ‘The Cenation Leader’ that has been going on for years. However, when ‘The Animal’ did the comedy scene in the Marvel movie, he is too associated with similar memes on social media.
The scene is when Starlord and Gamora are engaged in a serious conversation regarding Thanos. Drax is listening to them by standing still. Upon asking what he is doing, Drax says, “I’ve mastered the ability of standing so incredibly still that I’ve become invisible to the eye”
Unfortunately, Starlord and Gamora see them and Mantis then breaks Drax’s myth of being invisible.
But this one scene made Batista a legend, even though he wasn’t able to master the art of getting invisible. On the other hand, Cena has already mastered it in WWE for over 15 years now.

Did John Cena just make his debut in MCU alongside Dave Bautista?
Recently, MCU released the only episode of Guardians of the Galaxy: Holiday Special. In the episode, Batista’s character Drax along with Mantis visit earth to locate Star-Lord’s idol Kevin Bacon.
However, while they are finding Bacon’s home address, a lady hands them a map of all celebrity’s home addresses. One of the pictures is of John Cena in that celebrity home address manual.
Why this was possible if Cena is under contract with DCEU? It is because of James Gunn, who is also the director of DCEU’s The Suicide Squad. Hence, this might have allowed the 16-time world champion to have a cameo in MCU.
