John Cena talks similarity between Fast and Furious series and early days in WWE

This is something new for Cena as he is part of a series that has had several hits The Leader of the Cenation, however, compared this to his earlier days in WWE (h/t 411 MANIA)

“It really reminds me of the day I walked in the door at WWE and it’s the same sort of thing. The Fast legacy just celebrated its 20th anniversary. Some of these people have been making these movies for two decades. That’s a long time. When I was a rookie walking in WWE, you had guys like The Undertaker, Shawn Michaels, Triple H, Kurt Angle – guys that had dedicated their life and their well-being to this legacy.

“So, they obviously look at you wanting to know the content of your character and wanting to know your intentions. That’s OK because it should be OK. I’m being invited to join a multi-billion dollar success. I don’t have to craft anything from the ground up. I don’t have to make sure the ship sails. Basically, I just have to do my best and not sink that ship. But I can also reap the benefits of that success.”
