John Cena is doubling down on his heel persona, and his latest social media activity proves hes fully leaning into the dark side.
Since his shocking betrayal of Cody Rhodes at Elimination Chamber: Toronto, Cena has been eerily quietuntil now. The 16-time world champion resurfaced online this week, and hes sending a clear message: Hes embracing his new role as WWEs ultimate villain.
On Monday, Cena broke his silence with a post on Instagram featuring Harvey Dents infamous quote from The Dark Knight: You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.
Over on X (formerly Twitter), he followed up with another cryptic message: Have the discipline to do what needs to be done, especially when you dont feel like it.
Then, on Wednesday, Cena returned with yet another cryptic quote: How others respond to us tends to say a whole lot more about them than it does about us. Evaluate it and dont take it personal.
If that wasnt enough, he also shared the cover art for Don McLeans American Pie, a song that many believe symbolizes the end of an era and the loss of innocencea fitting metaphor for his WWE transformation.
And just when fans thought he was done, Cena dropped another Dark Knight reference on Thursday, this time featuring Heath Ledgers Jokerthe ultimate symbol of chaos and destruction.
With Cena set to challenge Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship at WrestleMania 41, its clear hes playing the long game. Whether hes truly embracing this new villainous persona or simply toying with fans remains to be seen.
