John Cena has grown in stature since making the jump to Hollywood. Fans have realized the talent the WWE superstar possesses on the silver screen. Cena’s most recent appearance was as a mermaid in the Margot Robbie starred movie “Barbie”. Recently, WWE Hall of Famer Teddy Long commented on the Cenation Leader’s rise in the acting industry.

In an interview on The Wrestling Time Machine, he praised John Cena for receiving a role in the $1 billion movie. First, the Hall of Famer gave a shout-out to the legend for getting a chance in Barbie despite being a newcomer in Hollywood. “He’s a lucky man to get a break in that movie, so congratulations to you, playya,” said Long.

Although John Cena had a screen time of about 20 seconds in Barbie, the 75-year-old believed it was still a huge achievement for him. “That’s okay; he made it into the movie,” he further stated. Previously, Margot Robbie revealed that the sixteen-time world champion instantly said yes when she asked him to play the role in the movie.

The Franchise Player is currently on hiatus from acting due to the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike. Therefore, he used the time to return to his home, WWE. As a result, John Cena will appear on television for at least two months, with rumors speculating that he will appear at the next premium live event, Fastlane.

Superstar Spectacle was a huge success for the WWE in India. Fans were excited throughout the show, which was filled with several incredible moments and matches. Moreover, the appearance of John Cena took the event up a notch. After arriving in Hyderabad, the 47-year-old legend spoke briefly with the media.

Straightaway, he asked about his opinion on who is the greatest of all time. “In my perspective, I think Roman Reigns is the greatest of all time,” claimed the Cenation Leader. Interestingly, Reigns has always been referred to as the next “John Cena,” especially during his unfathomable rise in the industry.

Therefore, receiving such a big endorsement from the former face of the company is huge. The pair have wrestled at a premium live event twice. At first, it was at No Mercy 2017 that the former Shield member emerged victorious. Six years later, at SummerSlam, the Tribal Chief once again reigned supreme against his opponent.
