John Cena does what he wants at this point in his career, and he recently had a ton of fun with an appearance on the baseball diamond. This was a huge surprise, and a very unconventional time at the plate, but Cena also proved that he can’t see strikes.
Baseball Is Not Cena’s Next Venture
The Savannah Banana proclaim on their Twitter/X account that, “We Make Baseball Fun. Fans First. Entertain Always.” Cena is all about that, and he also follows their account. Obviously, he got a hold of someone at the organization.
In a huge surprise at Bananaland, John Cena showed up in a uniform. He posed for the crowd, and even had a championship belt on hand. This entrance was very unconventional for baseball, and even included some smoke effects and his WWE music played as well.

John Cena struck out looking, but that may have been on purpose. This appearance wasn’t about knocking a home run, because that came with his performance. Cena may have actually not been able to swing.
The reality is that injuries can come at any time, and John Cena’s muscles aren’t used to the motion of swinging a baseball bat. This could have been a consideration when booking his at-bat. That, and Cena probably wanted to avoid an embarrassing whiffing situation, because that meme would have lived on forever.

What’s Next
No matter what the situation may have been during this incredible appearance. It’s not likely that MLB will be calling him any time soon. That being said, Hollywood needs more baseball movies. John Cena is a major movie star. So, his love of the game may see him land a spot swinging some bats later on.
The Savannah Bananas certainly know how to put on a baseball game. For more information, you can click here.
