John Cena has insisted his wife is his “number one passion”. The 48-year-old actor and WWE icon - who is retiring from wrestling in December this year - insisted Hollywood won’t become the most important thing in his life when he hangs up his boots for the final time, as he always prioritises his partner Shay Shariatzadeh.
He told Extra: “My number one passion is my wife. Absolutely, that is first on the list.
“I’d say right behind that is my health so I can be the best husband to my wife.” Despite his looming retirement, the Heads of State actor insisted he will always be part of WWE in some capacity as long as they want him.
He added: “This is my final year in the WWE. I’m retiring this year. We’re about halfway through, so I look forward to officially closing the book on in-ring competition.
“I will forever be an ambassador of the WWE. I’ll be part of that family till they ask me to leave.”
Cena is stepping away from life as a professional wrestler knowing that his Hollywood career has hit new heights, but he doesn’t take it for granted.
He said: “I know how hard it is to get any sort of role. I saw some footage today, which was one of my first roles as a background actor and man, it really warmed my heart.
“I don’t carry any guilt or shame when I see that, because I got to be on screen, I got to learn a little bit about the business.
“It allowed me to reflect on how far I’ve come, so, gosh, I just want to make the most of the chances that people take on me.”
Meanwhile, the current Undisputed WWE Champion insisted storytelling in WWE is “more adaptable” than movies and other TV shows.
