John Cena will be hosting the ESPYs this week and earlier today he spoke with ABC News about the show, his wrestling career and more. You can check out the full interview here along with some highlights below.
Designing his own merchandise: “I design all my own merchandise. … I come up with the marketing of it and … I’m really in tune to our live event. … I love the business. You gotta work hard now because the entertainment business, you know, it’s not guaranteed.”
How much longer he plans to wrestle for: “I’m going to do this as long as I physically can. There is a definitive end in sight. But man, I’m gonna milk it for all that it’s worth. And not like, ‘I’m gonna hang on to my spot man.’ I just want to be involved, I want to be able to contribute because the noise and the appreciation, like that is such wonderful psychology to be able to manipulate.”
Why he hasn’t left wrestling to do acting full time: “It’s taken years and I still can’t jump the hurdle. Everybody’s like ‘OK, when are you getting out of wrestling to do movies?’ And they’re baffled when I’m like, ‘I’m not!’ I want it to be acceptable to do both. Why would I turn off 650 million global viewers? Why would I turn off half a billion social accounts? Why would I turn off the fun?”
