In a recent appearance on Rick Rubin’s “Tetragrammaton” podcast, Paul Heyman delved into a wide range of subjects within the realm of professional wrestling. Among the topics of discussion was John Cena, and Heyman expressed his utmost respect and admiration for him as a person.
Cena is well known for his charity work, and Heyman shared a heartwarming story about his selfless personality. He said,
“I don’t have the words to convey the admiration I have for John Cena as a human being. There had to come a point in time where Vince had to sit down with John and say, ‘You need to let me go public with these Make-A Wish visits. You have to. You know you’re hurting Make-A-Wish by not allowing me to do that because if people understood how much of your time you give to Make-a-Wish and to these kids, they’ll be inclined to contribute. They’ll be inclined to get involved. You will help them if you allow this’, because Cena never wanted to exploit it. He never wanted publicity for it. He never wanted recognition for it. He wanted to just do it. That’s a hero.”
John Cena has granted 650 Make-A-Wish wishes, the most of anyone in history.
