DETAILS

John Cena

Started his WWE Career 17 years ago. He seems to be heading toward a new haircut as well.

17 years ago today my @WWE journey began. It is FAR from over and has greatly changed over the years. It has given me chances to be brave and vulnerable. Today #FastAndFurious journey begins. Fear, the unknown, growth, and maybe a haircut await. Adapt. Overcome. Never Give Up.
