Whether you like him or hate him, you have to admit that the Franchise Player of WWE has inspired lots of children around the world in his WWE career so far. The 500+ wishes John Cena has granted with Make a Wish foundation speak for his ability to inspire children and now another milestone has been added to his illustrious career as a social worker.
Although this time, his painting has become a source of inspiration for the pupil of a primary school in Napier, New Zealand instead of him appearing in person.
Actually, as reported by stuff.co.nz, the principal of the primary school in Napier Jason Williams decided that children will get inspired more from people they actually see than the common role models such as Nelson Mandela, Jean Batten or Jesus.
So he decided to have WWE Superstar John Cena appear in the Murals at school alongside the likes of Olympic shot putter Valerie Adams and comic book character the Incredible Hulk. Here is what the principle had to say about this:
“When I was thinking of someone that kids connect with, the first name that came to my mind was John Cena. It’s interesting when you go around schools, there are a lot of murals, but I’m pretty sure we’re the only one with a WWE Superstar plastered on the wall. A number of our staff said 'Who's the guy in the middle?' [referring to Cena] but the kids didn't know who Valerie was, his motto is to never give up. Every kid loves him. He fights the biggest and the ugliest guys and always comes through. It's the larger-than-life heroes that capture them(children). And that may not be how home life is for some of our students. We are all about the kids and what captures them,"
Below is a photo of kids from the school posing in front of the wall painting of the Leader of Cenation:
John Cena is scheduled to fight AJ Styles this Sunday at SummerSlam to write the final chapter of their rivalry for at least in a while as Cena is rumored to take some time off from WWE after the event.
Talks are that he will be taking a couple of months off for the filming of the second season of the TV reality show American Grit. He is also most likely to miss the first brand Exclusive PPV of SmackDown Live! Backlash.
