John Cena on issues with fans wanting him to turn heel

John Cena was a guest on NBC’s Late Night with Seth Meyers, where he came to promote the new “Bumblebee” movie. He is playing a leading role in the movie.

 


 

Cena talked about the negative reception he has been getting due to his new hairstyle.

“So about that. For all the machismo and bravado that oozes out of the WWE and its audience, they’re so shaken by a damn haircut. Guys, I’ve been rocking an $8 fade for 20 years, and I finally decided to grow it out. I’m sorry to make you uncomfortable, I am.”

Meyers joked that Cena has a very corporate haircut nowadays, to which Cena replied:

”I’m in a damn three-piece suit, man. It’s the whole Clark Kent thing.”

On the topic of the Bumblebee movie, Cena said he was happy to be playing a negative role. This would lead to a discussion regarding a potential heel turn in WWE.

“It’s weird with me because I am supposed to be the hero, but I’m actually the heel, and everyone’s just like, ‘Man, why don’t you just turn bad so you can be cool again! Wait, wouldn’t that make me good? I don’t even know. And it’s fun to like go into the WWE warpzone with those folks. They think I’m supposed to be a bad guy to be a good guy but aren’t I already being a bad guy? Just wait until the debut of The CFO.”
