Cena becomes 1st celebrity to fulfill 600 Make-A-Wish requests
John Cena had a busy WrestleMania weekend.
Before making his surprise appearance as the "Doctor of Thuganomics" at WrestleMania 35, Cena helped induct 26 children into WWE's Circle of Champions during a Make-A-Wish event in Times Square on Saturday.
"I want to make sure everyone has a wonderful experience," Cena told Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated. "For someone to get one wish and their wish is to hang out with you, that's the most awesome thing ever. I have great perspective of what it is and never take it for granted. I'll always try to give as much happiness as I possibly can."
Cena has been working with Make-A-Wish since 2004, and has now granted more wishes than any other celebrity.
