On a recent edition of the “Insight” podcast, wrestler-turned-Hollywood actor John Cena compared his current self to the man he was during his first year in WWE in 2002.
Cena said, “I think the things that they share in common are gratitude, grit, perseverance, and humility. The John Cena in 2002 gets to go out and fight Kurt Angle under the impression of two words, ruthless aggression, and it was a failure because I was neither ruthless, nor aggressive, and I wasn’t able to see the opportunity.”
Cena last wrestled in November 2023, losing to Solo Sikoa in a singles match.
