Despite Cena’s active involvement in the creative process, Gewirtz humorously recalled a particular angle that was entirely Cena’s idea, referring to the infamous “JBL is poopy” moment on the July 7, 2008, episode of WWE Raw.
As I recall @JohnCena came up with a great deal of his promos himself, especially his early raps but he was always happy to collaborate and take any and all suggestions to make a segment better. Except the time he wrote “JBL is poopy” on @JCLayfield’s limo. That was all him. https://t.co/uiovQvzJcJ
