As the world gears up for the Super Bowl, the NFL may be king, but the king of the WWE just hit an Attitude Adjustment on the league with his comments on one of the combine’s oldest strength tests, the bench press.

In October 2015 John Cena showed his inhuman strength when he tweeted a video of himself benching 463-pounds, a feat that Cena claims he pulled off again recently for a Muscle & Fitness video shoot. The ridiculous achievement is making the rounds again because of a recent interview with SI Now, where Cena took the NFL down using the bench press as a test of skill during the NFL Combine.
“It’s the most worthless test of skill that they have at the Combine. And in an organization like the NFL they’re going to come back with ‘Eh, what does the kid know?’
But I know a lot about Strength and Fitness, and upper body reps for a segregated weight for max is a HORRIBLE test for the Combine athlete. I love the Agility test, I love the Sprint tests, Vertical Jump and all that stuff is really fun to watch. But, step your game up with the strength assessment, NFL.”
What can the NFL say? John Cena doesn’t know about getting swoll? Yeah, I don’t think so. But, it’s not just big muscles. Cena is ridiculously athletic for a guy of his insane build. And since I can barely bench my own body weight, I’m going to trust the leader of the Cenation on this one.
