John Cena Once Revealed How His “Saint” Mother Saved Him and His Brothers From a Brutal Tragedy

John Cena is arguably the biggest WWE Star ever. His list of achievements is uncountable, and over the years, he has earned plenty of respect from both his fans and peers alike. However, Cena was not always a pro wrestler. Prior to joining the pro wrestling industry, Cena used to be an amateur competitive bodybuilder. But following a disappointing short stint, he switched paths.

Although, his rise to success in pro wrestling came very quickly. And after a string of good performances, Cena was given a major push. Soon after, there was no looking back for him. John Cena’s rise to success had no match for it, and he quickly became a global star.

A few years ago, Cena met with Conan O’Brien and discussed his childhood days with him, and how his life was growing up. When O’Brien asked about his father being a huge wrestling fan, Cena answered in approval. However, Cena stated how he and his brothers were huge wrestling fans, and got away with fighting if it was related to wrestling.

Cena recollected one incident where the brothers nearly killed each other during a fight and it was their mother who saved them. The 16-time-World-Champion said, “There was one particular time, my mother was a saint.” He then continued how the brothers were once fighting in the basement, and then chased each other with a sledgehammer, chainsaw, and kitchen knife.

He stated, “One of my brother grabs a sledgehammer, the other grabs a chainsaw. We bolt upstairs, I’m the last man in line. I rip through the kitchen grab a kitchen knife and we going around the house. One with the chainsaw, one with the sledgehammer, and one with the knife. And, just an arm and my mom clotheslines all three of us.” The 45-year-old revealed how his mother then saved them.

John Cena once performed a risky move during one of his WWE matches

WWE Legend John Cena is famed for performing a usual move-set, which lacks variety and uniqueness. He has often faced a lot of criticism for the same. His move-set is infamously known as Five Moves Of Doom. Although, he later innovated his move-set and added another one to it, the springboard stunner.

However, during his 2012 Night of the Champions match against CM Punk, Cena performed a suicide dive on CM Punk, leaving everyone present there in disbelief.

Cena is an impressive performer, and it was his charisma, mic skills, and wrestling abilities that took him to the top.
