John will hear a lot of cheers and a lot of ‘Cena Sucks’ chants when he returns on Memorial Day 2016.
John Cena is a polorizing figure within the WWE. Young fans idolize him and older fans love yelling ‘Cena Sucks’ during WWE live events. One thing is clear, John Cena commands a lot of attention and generates a lot of noise when he steps inside a WWE ring. How does he deal with the negative reactions and the ‘John Cena Sucks’ chants? In a recent interview with ABC News, Cena explained what it is like to wrestle in hostile environments.

Here is what he said:
“It completely dictates what I do. It’s not in a negative way at all. Excitement is excitement, whether it’s excitement in appreciation or excitement in hostility. It’s all noise and it’s all excitement and it’s all anticipation and it’s all things that we strive off of. It completely makes me handle situations differently and I owe my career to it. It’s what allows me to think on my feet. It’s what keeps me sharp and keeps me listening to those that paid their hard-earned money to watch me. Some performers can’t adapt to an ever-changing audience and an ever-changing crowd, but I thank our fans, our WWE Universe, every day. They’ve given me such a crash course for having a fine-tuned sense of what’s going on and how to respond to it so I can do the best I can to give people who actually paid to see me the best show possible” (Source: ABC News).
I think that is why Cena is so successful. He has embraced the hate and has fun with it. Cena also spoke about hosting the ESPY’s and a wide variety of other topics in the interview you can check out at the link above.
