John Cena fans recently found themselves in the middle of an online exchange. The star that Cena is exchanging subtle nods with is none other than the music artist Drake. The pop culture sensation who has publicly expressed his passion for WWE recently planned on teasing his fans with a new possible collaboration on the way.

We all know that ‘The Cenation Leader’ has an affinity toward hip-hop. Would we be going too far to speculate that perhaps the two stars could work together to create a new masterpiece for the music industry? Here are the two subtle nods from both stars foreshadowing a potential future collaboration between the two artists.

The online exchange between John Cena and Drake that nobody saw coming

A few hours ago, Drake dropped a new song for his fans to listen to. The song is called ‘Wick Man’. As the song name suggests, it comes as another pop culture hit, John Wick. In fact, Keanu Reeves’ character is name-dropped in the first few lines itself. However, an unexpected name drop takes place when the 2nd verse of the song comes in. The easter egg referened John Cena and his wrestling career.

There’s a line in the 2nd verse of the song that goes, “I’m almost expressionless. John Cena wouldn’t know emotions I wrestlе with.” Even though it has been long since John Cena was a full-time wrestling star, it looks like Drake still reminisces about the old times. He also appears to be considering Cena the pinnacle of wrestling through these lines.

Cena immediately returned the nod a few hours later with a subtle Instagram post. In the picture, we can see Drake standing with a WWE Championship on his shoulder that he has flexed publicly numerous times.

The non-captioned Instagram post by the Hollywood celebrity suggests that he didn’t miss the reference in Drake’s latest song. It can also be their way of foreshadowing a collab in the near future. The theory has credence since the WWE legend has displayed his knack for wordplay and rhymes during his stint in the Stamford based promotion.

Such a collaboration would make much more sense now that John Cena has fewer things on his plate to worry about. If this confuses you, then you need a brief review of the most recent happenings in Cena’s wrestling career.

Is it feasible to expect John Cena to reconnect with music?

WWE has used John Cena’s rapping talent in the past. There have been several moments where the wrestler showed off his skills in the arena filled with wrestling fans. However, now Cena can also grab the opportunity to work with a professional songwriter, especially after leaving the WWE.
