John Cena Sets New Guinness World Record

WWE

16-time WWE World Champion John Cena has set a new record for the most wishes granted through the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

The Make-A-Wish Foundation helps fulfill the wishes of children who have been diagnosed with critical illnesses.

John Cena has been associated with the non-profit organization for some time now, with the former WWE Champion recognized at the organisation’s most requested celebrity.

Guinness World Records has now revealed that Cena has now granted 650 wishes for the Make-A-Wish Foundation. For comparison, Cena is the only celebrity to have granted more that 200 wishes since the organization was founded.

Cena has been granting wishes since 2002 and granted the organization’s 1000th wish in 2012.

The star was interestingly referred to as ‘American actor and WWE superstar John Cena’. Cena is currently focusing on his Hollywood career, last wrestling at SummerSlam 2021.

Cena most recently appeared on WWE TV in June, exactly 20 years on from his WWE SmackDown debut in 2002.

There has been some speculation about Cena potentially returning to the ring at WrestleMania 39 in April 2023, following James Gunn’s announcement that Peacemaker season 2 won’t start filming until at least May next year.
