10 Unbelievable Jobs You Won’t Believe WWE Stars Had

2. John Cena Was A Limo Driver

Nowadays, WWE's franchise star John Cena is likely more accustomed to being driven around in limousines than steering the wheel himself. That wasn't always the case. Years prior to becoming one of wrestling's biggest stars, Cena worked in gyms during the day (working out when he could) and acted as a chauffeur by night.

That's right, the 16-time World Champion was a lackey. Somehow squeezing his huge frame into a black and white tux and wearing one of those hats drivers sport, Cena had to open doors for others, mind his manners and safely guide them to their chosen destination.

That's quite the mental image, but it happened. A fine example of how far hard work can get you, Cena was finally able to ditch the driving gig and pave his way into wrestling folklore. The politeness he's famous for during media appearances likely stems from his work as a driver too.
