5 WWE Superstars who have won awards in other fields

#1 John Cena

WWE Superstar John Cena made his film debut in 2000 and starred in his first major movie in 2006 titled The Marine. It wasn’t until three years later that he got his second movie titled 12 Rounds, after which Cena became a breakout star in Hollywood.

Following in the footsteps of Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, Cena slowly shifted his focus from in-ring competition to the silver screen after achieving almost everything in WWE.

The move proved to be the right one for The Cenation Leader who has now starred in over a dozen movies and has hosted several television shows.

The 16-time WWE World Champion has some sweet acting skills

For his acting skills, Cena won the CinemaCon ‘Action Star of the Year’ Award in 2017, making it the first award he’s won for his acting.

Now that he has become more prominent in Hollywood, we will likely see him get nominated for several more acting awards.

While Cena has now been taking several more movie projects as he has almost entirely stepped away from the WWE ring, we will continue to see him appear for the company whenever they require his services.
