WWE Superstar John Cena recently revealed that he wants to star in a movie with one of his biggest rivals, CM Punk. With this being his final year in the wrestling ring, Cena is fully committed to one last run with WWE.
John Cena and CM Punk have created countless unforgettable moments for fans. Their rivalry is often regarded as one of the greatest in WWE history. It began in 2011 and continued through 2013, fueled by Punk’s rise to stardom after his famous pipebomb promo. This set up their memorable WWE Money in the Bank 2011 match.
At Money in the Bank 2011, Punk defeated Cena for the WWE Championship, a moment that remains one of the most iconic in WWE history. But their rivalry didn’t end there. Fans watched several more epic encounters between them. Fans still remember their incredible matches from Night of Champions 2012 and a WWE RAW match leading into WrestleMania 29.
Recently, both WWE Superstars have exchanged friendly shoutouts. However, Cena, who started his retirement tour, announced that he would compete in the Men’s Royal Rumble match.
On the latest edition of WWE RAW, CM Punk also declared his entry into the match, where he plans to eliminate 29 Superstars, including Cena, to claim victory. As Cena and Punk prepare for the Royal Rumble, Cena revealed why he wants to work with CM Punk in a movie.
John Cena believes a movie with CM Punk will be loved by fans
In an interview with Collider, John Cena discussed the potential of working with CM Punk in an action-comedy. He stated, “Usually, in the action-comedy space, it’s kind of oil and water, or two comedy styles that combat each other, and I don’t want to say ‘combat,’ but I think people would dig me and CM Punk together.”
The idea of two of WWE’s biggest superstars starring in a movie together would undoubtedly excite many fans. While Cena has been making waves with his film career, Punk has also made his mark in films and TV series such as the popular FX series Mayans M.C.
