Watch John Cena Cover Pixies On Piano For Some Reason

John Cena, the 16-time WWE Champion and occasional movie star, has dabbled in music before. Back in 2005, when his wrestling gimmick was that he was a battle rapper who would dis his opponents before wrestling them, Cena released a major-label rap album called You Can’t See Me.

Cena is engaged to the former wrestler Nikki Bella, who, along with her sister Brie, was once part of a tag team called the Bella Twins.
