10 Wrestling Moments That Will Make You Really Feel Old

5. John Cena Has Been On WWE TV For 4 More Years Than Randy Savage

John Cena Debut

John Cena has been on the main WWE roster for 13 years now, having made his debut on an episode of Smackdown back in 2002. 13 years is a long, long time, especially when talking wrestling runs.

To emphasise just how long Cena has been around, he's already clocked up 4 more years of WWE TV time than the legendary Randy Savage. For a moment in time, it felt as if Savage had been on Vince McMahon's show for an eternity, but his impressive run of 9 intense, entertaining years is dwarfed by Cena's.

What's even more likely to make you question just how old you are is the realisation that Cena is also close to having more time in Vince McMahon's company than Hulk Hogan did with all of his runs combined.

Cena is a machine, a juggernaut of the industry, and somebody who has had amazing longevity. Whether you like him or not, it's ridiculous when you actually sit down and see how long John Cena has been around for; kids who were born when Cena debuted are nearly half-way through high school!

And the bad news for those who've Cena-Nuff is that the former Doctor of Thuganomics looks like he'll be around until we're all even older and greyer.
