John Cena recently celebrated the 13th anniversary of his WWE main roster debut. On 27 June 2002, he answered Kurt Angle's open challenge on an episode of SmackDown!, taking the Olympic gold medalist to the limit and making an immediate name for himself. Fourteen years, 15 world titles, and countless main events later, John Cena is a legend.
To be fair, those 14 years - the ones from age 25 to age 39 - are hell on anybody. They're that much worse, though, when you're the hardest-working man in pro-wrestling. Getting beaten up 200 times a year, flying hundreds of thousands of miles, and still making time to film The Reunion takes a lot out of somebody. As a result, John Cena looks a lot older, and he always seems really, really tired.
Make no mistake - Cena is still in phenomenal shape, and he's still one of the best performers in the sport. It's just that the stress of carrying an entire industry is making itself known, and the baby that showed up on SmackDown! 14 years ago looks more than a little unfamiliar.
