“I Became Ostracized”: John Cena, Who Granted 500+ Children Wishes, Was ‘Hated’ By His Co-Workers Early In His Career

John Cena is definitely the most beloved superstar in the pro wrestling industry. He has earned a name for himself with his do-gooder reputation for granting 500+ wishes to special needs kids. This action has won the heart of millions.

There is rarely anyone who doesn’t like The Cenation Leader. But Cena took the WWE Universe by surprise when he once revealed how his colleagues hated him at a certain point in his career.

Cena’s negative experience with his co-workers

In an interview, The 16-Time world Champion once confessed to being a victim of hatred from his co-workers during the early stage of his wrestling career. The star revealed he used to spend a lot of time “in the bleachers just writing punchlines”. And because of that, he “became ostracized and hated” by his “co-workers”. 

The star mentioned his workmates used to think that he “didn’t care about the business.” Because he wasn’t “around the ring with his shoulders on the canvas going ‘okay, who’s in the ring’”.

But the reality was different. Cena was “trying to develop a connection with the audience” and that was “the most important thing” for him.

WWE legend’s advice to John Cena

WWE Legend Kevin Nash gave an excellent piece of advice to The Prototype once. And that advice helped The Leader of Cenation quite a lot throughout his pro wrestling career.

Speaking on a podcast, Big Daddy Cool revealed that he once gave Cena a special tip to impress his fans. He advised The Champ to always wear a “baggy t-shirt.” 

According to Nash, the strategy behind this was when The Chain Gang soldier would take his t-shirt off, fans would go berserk over his marvelous physique. And we have to admit, it was indeed a brilliant strategy.

His recent match at the last SmackDown of 2022, featuring Kevin Owens alongside him and Roman Reigns and Sami Zayn in the opposite corner, was an excellent bout. Fans are hoping to see Cena soon in the greatest stage of them all, WrestleMania 39.
