7. John Cena

Who will go down in the history books as the man who broke the news of the killing of Osama Bin Laden to millions of Americans? That's right, it's The Prototype himself, John Cena.

Offering a salute every time he walks down that aisle, Cena has a strong association with national pride for the good ol' US of A. The poster boy for the Tribute to the Troops, for Make a Wish and other charity work, Cena is a model citizen and puts his patriotism front and centre.

Although his regular ring gear isn't always spangled and starred with the red, white and blue like some other superstars, and his now iconic theme song doesn't sound like a national fanfare, Cena is inseparable from the identity of his country.

After all, one of his best runs in recent years was as the United States Champion. Cena holding that belt somehow made that championship feel more relevant than it has ever been. Add a foreign heel to the mix in the form of Rusev and we had international wrestling feud heaven. He says we can't see him, but we definitely CAN...and he's a massive patriot.
