John Cena was asked what a possible appearance in GTA 6 would look like, and he set aside his personal wish list for the version he thinks would actually happen. According to comments shared by @playkissuk, that version is pure WWE John Cena.
“So, as much as my fantasy, what I would say I would want to do, let’s lean into what actually would happen,” Cena said. “WWE John Cena would show up and somehow attitude adjust somebody off a skyscraper or through a car or something like that.”
The cameo would not be complete without the trimmings, either. Cena said you “need to add the dun-dun-dun-dun or like, his name is John Cena!”
He described the whole idea as the product of 25 years of internet jokes. “I just pretty much encapsulated all the memes of 25 years of my life into one video game cameo that is not going to happen, that might happen, that I might have put out in the universe for GTA 7,” Cena said.
Nothing in his comments confirms an appearance in either game. Cena did stir up GTA 6 chatter in March 2025, when he posted the game’s cover art to Instagram with no caption days after his heel turn at WWE Elimination Chamber.
Cena has been talking plenty lately, from saying he has no regrets about his WWE retirement tour to explaining why he signed on to Matchbox without reading a script.
