[edit] Married

Excuse me but shouldent we mention the fact that he's married, or did he get a divorce? Obsesser (talk) 03:13, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

Got a source for that? SexySeaShark 13:49, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
Wow, that came off as really rude. Could stand to be nicer about it, he just asked. But yes, you'll have to find a source. And asking John himself is not a source, as Wikipedia doesn't consider the real person to be reliable, as per the original research policy.Killswitch Engage (talk) 16:13, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
That was not rudeness, it was just a question answered back. Zenlax T C S 20:10, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

he is apparently married to brooke hogan. source: new orleans local online article and photo of the two of them wearing wedding rings.

They've been posting that they ARE, as in, like, still, dating meaning brooke and john. --WWEluvr (talk) 21:06, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

see link: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Who_is_John_Cena's_girl_frind&updated=1&waNoAnsSet=2 it says that he is with Brooke as somebody already mentioned

[edit] PWI Match of the Year Award

Along with his various other PWI Awards, Cena also won PWI Match of the Year in 2007 for his match with Shawn Michaels on Raw on April 23, 2007. 75.107.217.175 (talk) 07:02, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

Why should it be mention? SexySeaShark 13:50, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
Why wouldn't it be mentioned? Other #1 PWI awards are. Added.«»bd(talk stalk) 17:03, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
It's an award issued by a dirtsheet. Not notable. Killswitch Engage (talk) 19:49, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
Was there a consensus to remove it from the Cena article? Zenlax T C S 20:00, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
PWI awards have been on this, and other, articles for quite a while, don't just go removing them because you think they don't qualify. If you have a problem with them take it up with the project, they love wielding power.«»bd(talk stalk) 21:23, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
See, this is why we are mentioned at WP:LAME. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 02:41, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
Is it? The project claims to want to make things consistent across wrestling related articles, if this isn't a prime example of what should be decided by the active members as a whole I don't know what is. «»bd(talk stalk) 03:09, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
Yes, it is. When you can give me a good reason that dirtsheet awarda are notable, let me know. Killswitch Engage (talk) 16:59, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
Leave it on the project.«»bd(talk stalk) 20:24, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
Exactly. That's why the project was created for. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 21:48, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

Cena currently came out with a movie about his life in 2007 called "My Life" talks about every thing you can think ofHyowon1 (talk) 16:05, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Jeering

Shouldn't it be noteworthy that Cena has been heavily jeered by the fans, despite being a face? It's been going on for a long time, now. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rockntell (talk • contribs) 21:52, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

It is noted. SexySeaShark 16:36, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

But it's not noted for the recent times. Right now, it's really hard to find a cheering fan of John Cena. They're mostly boo's (For example, the switch between "boo!" and "yeah!" when Cena and HHH trade fists. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rockntell (talk • contribs) 22:34, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

I disagree. I was at WWE Raw at the Joe Louis Arena on May 12, and although there were Randy Orton fans, the John Cena fans were WAY louder. --WWEluvr (talk) 21:06, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Personal Life

John is currently dating Aimee Cochran —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.11.17.189 (talk) 21:04, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Source? –LAX 21:06, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
Yeah, what LAX said..=), but seriously, you need a Reliable Source to prove he is dating her.--~SRX~ 21:17, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

There are picturs of him proposing to her here: http://www.pwpix.net/superstars/j/johncena/gallery/photoscans/1/index.php?gal=1&pic=61 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.32.9.229 (talk) 18:23, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Does not seem like a reliable source. Zenlax T C S 20:00, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] fatal four way and 2 weeks later on raw

fatal four way backlash


cena was defeated at backlash by a running punt to the head after making jbl tap out with a stfu. then pinned by orton. kayfabe revocering form injury he returns and gives regal advice on how to be a better gm and has a match with orton for the main event. after going to far with regal earlier a new referee is announced in the middle of cenas and ortons match jbl comes in and cena startspummeling him and orton until theyn team up and he is the games music starts playing and he helps cea jbl and cena are out of the ring win asteal cage descends and orton and hhh stare at each other as hhh stands atop the steal cage —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.242.62.217 (talk) 10:53, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

Oh my, First off, please sign your posts. Second, please use proper grammer, spelling, capitalization, and punctuation; as if is very hard to read that comments. Third, none of that information is notable to Cena, as he did not win the match at Backlash. Since he did not win, it is not notable, neither is something that happens between Orton and HHH, that doesn't even involve Cena. King iMatthew 2008 10:59, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

Sorry about that. How is that not notable? Cena lost at a ppv. Cena making jbl tap out is also important, as it sets the stage for there upcoming match at judgement day. I think a match at a ppv is worth mentioning as it relates directly with his current status within the wwe. Anyway, i am not excusing myself but i wrote this, and my other "contrubution" to the talk page while not properly medicated. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.242.62.217 (talk) 18:52, 13 May 2008 (UTC)


end of the day cena fought for the wwe championship this is notable and ive added it yea it shount be noted about him and jbl yet but very few get to wrestle for the wwe championship and it dont matter what ppv its at there all the same for a encyclapedia mabey not in wwe but for this its the same KCDavis (talk) 17:20, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

No, it isn't, because it isn't real. All WWE title matches are not notable. We don't list every title shot from Raw, and just because it's on a PPV doesn't suddenly make it more notable.«»bd(talk stalk) 02:47, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

And, by your logic you should take away the wrestle mania main event info for the page. If cena didn't win it wasn't notable to Cena. Nor should we mention any upcoming matches until he wins. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.242.62.217 (talk) 18:56, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

WrestleMania, however, is 1000x more notable than Backlash. King iMatthew 2008 20:41, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
Like IMatthew stated, it is relevant to include the fact that Cena took part in the Triple Threat match at WrestleMania. His participation in Backlash, however, does not seem notable to include into the article. Zenlax T C S 20:01, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
Exactly, adding results is week by week non notable cruft, as it has no effect to his career.~SRX~ 20:40, 14 May 2008 (UTC)


Alright, fair enough I was talking in general, though. I agree, I understand not adding this. It is just that his explanation was lacking imo. oh and its also about his event with JBL at judgment day and not just backlash. Plus, his return from filming his movie, 12 rounds. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.235.189.139 (talk) 03:05, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

It is not notable whether if Cena and JBL will continue their feud after Judgment Day. Zenlax T C S 20:18, 15 May 2008 (UTC)


I didnt say it was, I was clarifying what I meant. Not commenting on its notability. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.235.189.139 (talk) 01:42, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Protobomb/Killswitch aka spin-out Powerbomb

i don'i remember the name but Cena often Uses the spin out powerbomb, before the five knukle shuffle. If we don't know the name (I remmember only protobomb), we can list the move only like spin-out powerbomb. If you go to Powerbomp page, you can find the reference to Cena's Move. According to this page I name Cena's Move Killswicth. Only for example recently the move was used in a tag-team match with Triple H against Orton & Kennedy (see You tube and don't remove the move)

Dave.01 16.11 Italy —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dave.01 (talk • contribs) 14:13, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

should his budding on-screen romance with mickie james be included?

It doesn't seem notable to add right now. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 23:38, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] READ THIS

This is Wikipedia. It is a place where people come for infomation. So tell me how it is that a guy wants to check John Cena's recent activity in the WWE can't because SOME people want to keep the page unedited. It is not worth my time to try to bring new infomation to a page every month or two if you NERDS just change it back. THERE IS NO POINT WHATSOEVER! If I want to put what happened at Backlash I WILL BLODDY WELL PUT WHAT HAPPENED AT BACKLASH! Don't any of you nerds try and stop me! 62.136.24.17 (talk) 22:57, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

Wikipedia's rules, not ours. I would leave things like that in, but it's against wikipedia policy - which I uphold. Gavyn Sykes (talk) 22:59, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
This seems like a hate comment. Speed CG Talk 15:54, 28 May 2008 (UTC)


[edit] judgement day

at judgement day 2008 one of the announcers stated cena was i belive 5 and 0 at the pay per view cena won that night so that make 6 - 0 i think its worth noting —Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.143.6.119 (talk) 22:16, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] John Cena-Personal life

i read in an article for a local paper in my hometown of New Orleans that john was seen leaving a restaurant with a brunette which they identified as singer/supermodel Brooke hogan. this was followed by a picture in which both were wearing what appeared to be wedding rings. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.85.139.197 (talk) 21:25, 3 June 2008 (UTC)


he doesn't need to LET her date. she's freaking 24 years old. just look up the photo. it's probably still up. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.85.139.197 (talk) 02:42, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

i know what you mean. i saw that article online back in march 2008. they were both wearing rings in that picture i think. i went back to look again, but i couldn't find the page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.85.139.197 (talk) 02:52, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

the page must have expired, but i saw it too. they were definitely holding hands. but i think only Brooke was wearing a ring. i think it was black, but it could have easily been a black diamond. i don't remember where, but i also read that they were together since she turned 18 in 2002.

the source:http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Who_is_John_Cena's_girl_frind&updated=1&waNoAnsSet=2 proves John is dating Brooke.

And HOW is that a reliable source? WWEluvr (talk) 17:11, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

as mentioned before, on many many occasions, vH1 is not truly reality. there is no definite source for her age when hogan knows best, vh1, or the wwe are involved. they have their own agendas.

the Leno interview if that is true should not count. its unreliable because she was trying to promote her show and album. her label and vh1 told her what to say. she was playing a version of herself that was 18 back then. there are numerous radio interviews where she confirms this. there is sooo much more merit to her being 24. also, she does not need her father's permission to do anything. she is an adult. he does not control her or her career. she does what she wants. i even heard a rumor that will pose for Playboy.

[edit] Brooke Hogan

there have been numerous reports across the internet, in certain tabloids and on some radio shows that john cena is currently involved with brooke hogan. while this is not only possible, it is also highly likely due to the rumors that ran through the media starting with hulk hogan's tag team match with cena(as well as cena's appearance on hogan knows best) and were reignited when brooke showed up on saturday night's main event, nothing has been confirmed. however, the negative comments towards the possibility of this relationship are completely uncalled for. there has been a lot of evidence that backs this claim up. also, the allegations that she is too young or that hulk would forbid this are ridiculous. she is 24 as stated by more legitimate sources than sources that say she is 20. especially because those sources based their cases on the assumption that hogan knows best was reality instead of what it really is, reality based. also as an adult she does not need her father's permission to date. she can date whoever she wants, and if she wants john we are going to have to live with that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Princesslucky105 (talk • contribs) 18:56, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Tabloids are not reliable. Care to provide a link to a radio show? Gavyn Sykes (talk) 19:40, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
So far the only sources you have provided are pages you wrote at another site (wiki.answers.com). Gimmetrow 20:31, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

http://celebslam.buzznet.com/brooke-hogan-bikini-candids-2#comment-998581 another link. there are many more, but i don't have time to get them all. quick questions though. if you are so certain the person above was wrong, then can 'you' explain why the brooke hogan knows best page was removed? oh and can you prove what you say with anything other than cena's and hogan's own words, a reality based show, and very old photos? oh and this is just what people are finding. no need to get defensive. its not as if someone is attacking you, not that you could tell from your arguments. im sure there is a calmer way. if not seek help. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Princesslucky105 (talk • contribs) 03:19, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
