About this episode

In Part 2 of this episode of Club Shay Shay with John Cena, The Face of the WWE talks about his transition to acting, how Judd Apatow’s “Trainwreck” changed his career, and his experiences in films like “Suicide Squad” and “Fast & Furious”. John doesn’t shy away from the challenges of acting, particularly the embarrassment of filming sex scenes, but embraces the opportunities that come his way. Additionally, John gives listeners a sneak peek into his latest role in Jackpot, which John found to be a natural fit based on his personality in real life.

As the episode nears its close, John offers insights into his financial philosophy. A self-proclaimed car enthusiast, John talks about his love for driving and his worst purchases, including a fake Lamborghini, while his best purchase remains his wife’s engagement ring. He shares some of the tough financial lessons he’s learned to inform listeners how they can avoid the pitfalls he’s made in the past. John shares views on personal privacy as a global superstar, and why he still doesn’t want kids despite the societal implications adopted when an individual decides to make such a lifestyle choice. Join Shannon Sharpe and John Cena for an episode packed with inspiration, candid stories, and the wisdom of a man who’s never given up.
