WWE News: CM Punk was high praise for his former WWE rival’s acting skills
Recently, CM Punk appeared on ET Canada, where he was seen praising his former WWE rival. Punk stated that he was impressed by Cena’s superior acting skills and mentioned that he wasn’t surprised.
“Cena has always been that funny guy. I always thought that behind the scenes, and I think anybody who has worked with him always thought it. A lot of the guys at that top-level in WWE may not want to admit it, but all we are are theatre actors. We’re doing live theatre every Monday, every Friday, Thursday, Tuesday, whatever the hell the schedule is now. All that is is theatre. It gets you accustomed to improv and working on the fly.

He further added,
“I read James Gunn said that John Cena was the best improv actor he’s ever worked with. That does not surprise me in the least. We do it every week for decades. When we transition to film, I think people are pleasantly surprised like, ‘Oh wow, I thought you were just going to be this muscled up stiff guy.’ I am not surprised that John is killing it.”
