Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson and John Cena are arguably two of the most popular WWE wrestlers of the 21st century. What do the two have in common apart from wrestling? Both WWE stars are part of the Fast and Furious franchise headlined by Vin Diesel. Also, both of them are two of the highest-paid actors in Hollywood as of 2021.

John Cena’s last appearance in the WWE universe came at Wrestlemania 36. It was in a re-match against “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt. Cena was later defeated by Wyatt in the most dramatic of circumstances. Following that, the wrestler’s motionless body vanished from the middle of the ring.
