JOHN CENA IS IN ON THE JOKE

There isn't much John Cena wouldn't do for a laugh. "I come from a world where guys go out in their underwear, throw oil all over themselves and talk trash to each other. That in itself is ridiculous," says the 46-year-old star, who made his WWE pro-wrestling debut back in 2002. His willingness to embrace the absurd boosted his career in sports entertainment while providing an "escape" for his loyal fans-an audience that followed him to the big screen when he made his feature-film debut in 2006's The Marine.
