John Cena was asked if it changed anything when he found out Darren Young had come out as gay: "My oldest brother is gay, coming from a family of five boys that's extremely tough to admit that and he's openly accepted by our family" "I know Darren personally, Darren... is a great guy and that's a very bold move, and congratulations for him for finally doing it" "It's all about being professional. Darren Young is a constant professional, and I'm proud of him for doing that"show more

That's why he's the goat 🐐

Cena could’ve said the bare minimum but instead gave love and respect. That’s why he’s the goat 🐐

Yup, no one cares who you are banging. Just be a good person.

Dave batista and John Cena, real men are secured and not insecured 🫡

Beautiful, he shut that down perfectly

I've always wondered, does John Cena believe in christianity?

Dude wasn't listening. Right away Cena says wonderful, then fantastic. He answered the coming question right away and dude still pressed as if something different might come out of John's mouth. Some men are just plain unhappy and uncomfortable in life.

John Cena nailed this. He kept it personal by mentioning his oldest brother, calling Darren’s move bold without making it a big production, and focusing on him being a professional. No lectures, no spotlight on himself, just genuine respect. This is why so many people have always liked Cena.

John Cena has always been a class act. This kind of support really means a lot.

I like this answer because it basically says he keeps it real at work not too real. He respects his coworkers who are also men he’s cool with everybody and what you do in your private life is nobody’s business. And John even openly shared a piece of his life which he didn’t have to but good on him.

John Cena’s response is class act 👏 Supporting his brother and Darren Young like that shows real character. Respect.

John Cena has never missed holy fuck

Now when is HE coming out?

“**Consummate** professional.” Not “constant” you absolute potato.

@grok who is Darren Young?

Old video cause he’s with the longest reigning divas champion in history btw

John Cena is either a really genuinely great guy or a Terminator sent back from the future but instead of being programmed to hunt John Connor he was given perfect media training.

Who was he talking to? There's no one on screen.....

"John Cena bringing up his own brother instead of giving a generic scripted answer made this response feel so much more genuine and personal to actually hear. Support that comes from real lived experience always lands differently than a rehearsed statement ever could."

John Cena is a gentleman.

Sad he is giving into lustful ways of the flesh, and worse that Cena is promoting such an abomination. They need to repent as all do, and turn from this trash.

Finally someone speaking with comprehension and security….. too many insecure men are bothered by what other men do…

Why is he congratulating him on banging dude, while yes it’s a bold move it’s ridiculous that the dude found it necessary to tell everyone. He brings shame to namesake, nobody cares who you bang just do it quietly lol

John is the king of PR answers

Gays: “I like being anally penetrated by other men” Normies: “OMMGGGG UR SO BRAVE! WOW! YOU SEEKING ANAL PLEASURE IS ON PAR WITH SOLDIERS FIGHTING WARS AND MARTYRS! OMGGGG WE SHOULD MAKE STATUES AND HAVE PARADES FOR YOU!” Bro…I hate this timeline

Cena call Darren Young a “consummate professional” not a “constant” professional! Referring to someone as a consummate professional is extremely complementary.

John cena was like

This dude is honestly one of the best people walking the planet. Check out the interview he did with Pete Davidson about Make a Wish. We need more John Cenas in the world.

This clip is from August 2013, right after Darren Young came out as the first openly gay active WWE wrestler (via TMZ). The woman with Cena is Nikki Bella, his girlfriend at the time.

It’s 2026…. Do people still really care about this stuff… Who the fck cares if someone is gay or not… I get more important shit to worry about

John Cena is a national treasure man. He literally saw his flaws and did a 180 and he just never comes across as not genuine. I love to see it.

I hope yall know John Cena knew his brother was gay his brother came out to him 10 years ago and John held that pale of water down until his brother was ready to tell the family 🙌🏾

John Cena is a completely legitimate renaissance man.

that's a solid way to handle it, respect for keeping it grounded in family and professionalism.
