WWE Legend John Cena Recalls the First Time He Wrestled in Front of Live Fans

John Cena is one of the biggest Hollywood and wrestling stars. However, today he can work in front of the camera without flinching or hesitating. But, it all started in a gym a long time ago.

During his conversation with Jimmy Fallon, John Cena revealed the time he performed in front of an audience for the first time.

“It was in a gym called L.A. Boxing in Orange County, and seven people were there. And I was not good. So, nothing really changed.”

Even though it’s been a long time since he’s been working in front of the camera, he still feels nervous before coming in front of the camera.

“I’m nervous behind the curtain. Like, I’m always nervous. I think if you lose those nerves. If you lose that anticipatory excitement, like, ‘oh I don’t know how this is going to go’, you have to move on. I think you’re done at that point. You should always have that energy.”
