John Cena was recently interviewed by Metro.us in order to promote his new film: ‘The Wall’ that comes out in a few days. During the interview he spoke mostly about the upcoming film but he does briefly touch on his wrestling career and how he mixes it with acting.
Cena says that he would act and wrestle at the same time if it was up to him, but it is not his decision:
“I would do both at the same time, but the movie guys are a little weird with their insurance. They don’t want me to go smashing my face up. [Laughs] I’m excited for all the opportunities outside the WWE ring, only because it raises awareness of the WWE. I take great pride in my profession, but I’m very aware of the perception of it. I think a lot of people think we are just what we are, and that’s it”
He continued:
“There’s nothing wrong with that. But there are plenty of talented people who travel with the WWE and produce wonderful entertainment every week. We do live sports entertainment, and it’s like no other. To be able to do stuff like this outside of the norm and for people to say, ‘Wow, that’s pretty good,’ that bodes well for getting more eyes on the ring.”
