John Cena has embraced his new role as a Hollywood star, and despite being in the midst of shooting The Suicide Squad spinoff Peacemaker, he's currently doing the rounds to promote F9: The Fast Saga.
In one interview, the leader of the Cenation was asked about suggestions he spent years carrying WWE on his back. "No, no, that's not true. That's not true," Cena responded. "If you think so, watch any wrestling match or WWE performance with one individual. So I don't believe in that term."
"I always found a real sense of satisfaction contributing where I could because I know that the idea of the sense of complacency with performers is high. And they always want to be at the top spot and there is only one top spot. But I believe a spot is a chance to contribute. So it won’t be about that. It will simply be if there is an enthralling and correct continuation to the narrative."
"I hate when people say that because it takes the credit away from a lot of talented individuals."
While Cena was the face that ran the place for a long time, WWE is a team effort and the company has carried on without him. It helps that Roman Reigns has stepped up to fill the void, of course, and while the former sixteen-time WWE Champion has been missed, there are more than enough Superstars there ready to step up and take that top spot for themselves in Cena's absence.
Do you think WWE can survive without John Cena?
