The Initial Reason Vince McMahon Did Not Want John Cena In WWE

On the most recent edition of 'Something To Wrestle With', host Bruce Prichard revealed the initial reason for Vince McMahon not wanting John Cena in the WWE

“Cena comes back, signs his contract, his tests come back, he’s clean as a whistle and Vince walks up to me and says ‘get that walking, talking steroid billboard out of our backstage.’ I’m like ‘who?’, ‘That guy!’ and he’s pointing out Cena. I’m like: ‘Vince, we just signed him. Vince made the initial assumption that I think everybody made when they saw John, especially back in those days. (Cena) was doing commercials for Gold’s Gym and he was ripped to shreds, but that was Vince’s first impression of John Cena: a walking, talking steroid billboard.”
