WWE Legend John Cena has always boasted an impressive physique. And it was a vital reason behind Cena receiving the push he received. He was arguably one of the biggest names in the pro-wrestling industry, which he left to join Hollywood.
Cena had one of the most successful careers in WWE, filled with various records and accolades. His exceptional physique and mic skills stood behind him as a major reason for his success. Although not many people might be aware of this but, John Cena was a bodybuilder before joining WWE.

However, he was not able to leave a mark behind in the land of bodybuilding. It was pro wrestling that took Cena to new heights. In spite of having a ripped and chiseled physique, he could not make much of a name in the bodybuilding industry.
The 16-time WWE World Champion, John Cena has biceps measuring an impressive 19-inches. Which is 5-inches smaller than Arnold Schwarzenegger. The Austrian Oak in his prime had biceps measuring 24-inches when pumped. However, he is now 75-years-old.
