We Got a John Cena Heel Turn Before GTA 6 — and He’s in on the Meme

John Cena's unexpected heel turn at WWE Elimination Chamber took the wrestling world by storm, and he capitalized on the moment by engaging with the Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6) meme on social media. The long wait for GTA 6, now spanning 12 years, has birthed a popular meme where fans highlight events that occurred before the game's release.

In this instance, Cena's shift to a WWE 'bad guy' role after 20 years as a beloved 'good guy' became a prime example. Known for his heroic persona and record-breaking involvement with Make-A-Wish, Cena's heel turn was a narrative twist many believed would never happen—yet it happened before GTA 6's release.

Cena, clearly in on the meme, shared an image of GTA 6 on Instagram, accompanied by its 2025 release window, to his 21 million followers. This playful post doesn't suggest any involvement in the game but rather showcases Cena's willingness to engage with fans through popular internet culture.

While Cena's post was meant in jest, it sparked speculation among some GTA fans that it might hint at something more about the game itself. Given the community's dedication to uncovering details about GTA 6's release date and additional trailers, such speculation is hardly surprising.

John Cena's bad guy era in WWE commenced before the release of GTA 6, but fans won't have to wait much longer, as Take-Two has confirmed a fall 2025 launch window for the game.

In other GTA 6 news, a former Rockstar developer in December 2023 attempted to explain why GTA 6 is coming to PC after it hits PS5 and Xbox Series X and S, urging PC gamers to be patient and trust the studio's plans.
