Watch WWE Icon John Cena React to Guinness World Record in New Video

Retired WWE legend John Cena expressed surprise Monday over his status as a Guinness world record holder.

During an appearance on First We Feast (beginning at the 8:21 mark), Cena reacted to being told that Guinness recognized him for being a babyface for over 7,000 consecutive days before turning heel.

"Is the Guinness Book of World Records owned by Guinness [the beer]," Cena asked. "And if so, maybe they had one too many pints to be like, 'You know what would be a great record? Who has been a babyface the longest?' Here we are talking about it now. I can't believe that that is a category."

After a run of more than 20 years as a beloved babyface, Cena shocked the wrestling world at Elimination Chamber 2025 when he turned heel by attacking Cody Rhodes.

The turn was short-lived, though, as Cena reverted back to his more familiar babyface status about five months later and finished his retirement tour as a fan favorite.
