John Cena believes comedian and actor Eric Andre could do very well in WWE if he ever decided to take professional wrestling seriously.
The two are currently promoting their upcoming Netflix comedy Little Brother, which premieres on June 26. During a recent interview with ETalk, Cena was asked about Andre’s appearance on WWE TV a few days ago. The WWE legend had nothing but praise for his co-star. He said Andre already has many of the qualities needed to succeed in wrestling.
John Cena sees natural WWE potential in Eric Andre
Many celebrities have appeared in WWE over the years, but not everyone has what it takes to connect with wrestling fans. Cena believes Andre has that special quality. He feels Andre’s skills as a performer and storyteller would fit naturally in WWE.
“The advice would be follow your dream. He’s a gifted physical comedian and a storyteller. He would be a WWE superstar as soon as he switches as soon as he changes his mind,” Cena said.
Andre is known for his wild comedy, fearless personality, and willingness to put himself in crazy situations. Those traits have helped many entertainers succeed in WWE, whether as wrestlers, managers, or special guests.
He also suggested that the only thing standing between Andre and a WWE career is commitment. “I think with a little more preparation, he’d do extremely well,” Cena added.
Andre recently got his first experience on WWE TV, although it didn’t end too well for him. On the June 15 episode of RAW, Jacob Fatu attacked him and crushed him with multiple top-rope splashes.
Even though the beating looked painful, Cena revealed that Andre apparently loved every second of it and even called it the “best thing” of his life. That attitude is probably another reason why Cena thinks Andre would fit so well in the pro wrestling business.
