John Cena Talks About Jersey Shore on Late Night

Posted by Marc Middleton on Wednesday, September 1st, 2010

- In an interview promoting the “feel good” WWE Films project “Legendary” on “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon,” popular WWE Superstar John Cena put over MTV’s “Jersey Shore” as one of his guilty pleasures.

The reality show came up as a discussion topic following a recurring, “Jersey Shore”-themed Fallon bit, in which he “fist pumps” to a generic house beat played by “Late Night” band The Roots. After Cena congratulated Fallon on making it to three hundred episodes, the band set the beat to chants of “300.” Fallon then congratulated Cena in the wake of WWE’s 900th episode of RAW, at which point, The Roots saluted WWE with the “900? beat treatment.

The two then entered into a discussion about the show, which included a mention of how The Situation’s exaggerated facial expressions portray him as an onlooker watching the show from the outside, rather than as an actual member of the eight person cast. Talk turned to the cast members’ fitness for pro wrestling, at which point, Cena declared that the MTV reality stars would definitely be at home in the world of WWE.

Fallon specifically pointed to Ronnie as someone who could potentially get involved in the ring; Cena joked about Ronnie’s punching power, quoting “one punch, bro, one punch, bro” in reference to an infamous moment on the show in which Ronnie celebrated knocking someone out with a single shot.

Ronnie could easily wrestle. I mean…one more move, and he’d have just as many as Cena.

This guy watches Jersey Shore but won’t watch the UFC because it’s “too over the top”? Cena’s a F.A.G. in every sense of the word.

i think he said that cuz every body is on the jersey shore bandwagon, and everybody is talking about it so return he will and ufc i think reminds him of tna, as a company that compete with wwe on a sport level so why would he talk about ufc

I find it funny how WWE tried their hardest to bury Jersey Shore on Raw last monday, mostly to poke fun at TNA’s signing of Becky Bayless and Rob Eckos to portray characters from the show, then Cena, the face of the company, publically endorses the show. If just about any other Superstar did this, they’d be totally buried. Cena? Nope, not even a slap on the wrist or a talking to. Damn you, Super Cena!

It’s funny how WWE kept ripping Jersey Shore but Jersey Shore almost doubles raw in ratings.

Jersey shore is the WORST show ever it’s not even close in my book. I’d rather watch a 5 hr marathon of barney than watch two mins of that garbage. Cena seems like the type that would watch that… Y don’t you go write a rap about it cena…
