Vince McMahon, back in the day, always preferred big swole guys, with muscles oozing out. He had the belief that bigger guys would make him more money. However, cruiserweights like Eddie Guerrero and Rey Mysterio proved his notion wrong. Although, he still preferred bigger guys than the high-flyers.

To receive their push and enjoy success, several WWE Superstars maintained a top shape and worked extremely hard in the gym. John Cena was also one of the healthiest persons, as well as one of the most successful and famous WWE Superstars ever. His glory days began from the moment he made his debut for the company. Before joining WWE, Cena used to be a competitive bodybuilder similar to Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Both Cena and Schwarzenegger possess impressive bodies. However, John Cena did not pursue his bodybuilding career for long and instead made his move toward professional wrestling, and became the star he is now. Whereas, Schwarzenegger pursued bodybuilding, became a legend there, and then one of the greatest action-film actors of all time.

During Cena’s time in WWE, he had a feud with Ryback, one of the big guys in the company. Ryback himself possessed an impressive physique, with huge quads, pecs, and traps. He had a heated rivalry with Cena for a long time and was also a legit championship contender for a long period.

The former WWE Superstar, although had a good body, never quite reached the epitome of success in WWE.
