When you’re a celebrity, your love life is under constant scrutiny. The general public wants as much information as they can get their hands on about what their favourite celebs are doing and it’s no different for WWE Superstars.
And, when it comes to WWE Superstars, there is nobody bigger than John Cena. Well, there’s The Rock, but I think we can all agree that he’s more of a movie star than a WWE Superstar these days. So, back to my original point, there is nobody bigger than Big Match John in the WWE.
As one would expect, the leader of the Cenation has had his fair share of female companions over the years.
Right from his early days as a trainee in WWE’s developmental territory of OVW to the superstardom he has found in equalling Ric Flair’s record of 16 World Titles, Cena has had a number of girlfriends and was even married at one point.
So, without further ado, let’s get into our list of 5 women John Cena has dated:
#1 Nikki Bella
We start this list off with John Cena’s latest beau, Nikki Bella. One-half of the Bella twins and The Face that Runs the Place have been an item since 2013 and this relationship seems to be one where Cena finally settles down with The One.
The two are currently working together on-screen for the first time in their careers and are embroiled in a heated feud with The Miz and Maryse where the heels have repeatedly rammed home the point that Cena will never propose to Nikki.

The obvious culmination of this angle should be Big Match John finally proposing to the love of his life and for the two to be wedded in the near future. In the days of reality television involving Total Bellas as well as Cena and Nikki’s high-profile positions in the WWE, this is a relationship which is meant to stand the test of time.
Regardless of all the nonsense, the two seem to be genuinely happy together so we wish the best for John Cena and Nikki Bella going forward.
#2 Elizabeth Huberdeau
If you’re wondering why everyone brings up the point of John Cena not proposing to Nikki, look no further than Elizabeth Huberdeau – Cena’s ex-wife. The two were high school sweethearts and endured a long-standing relationship before finally tying the knot in 2009.
The couple would remain together for only three years, though, as Cena filed for divorce in 2012. Something that he apparently did out of the blue, if Huberdeau’s version of events is to be believed.
This would result in a nasty public divorce that served to smear Cena’s good-guy image outside of the WWE ring as Huberdeau proceeded to throw in numerous accusations of Cena cheating on her over the years that they were together.
Things were finally settled between the two but not before Cena’s escapades with our next entry on this list came to light...
#3 Mickie James
Yup, Mickie James was a key reason which led to the divorce of John Cena and Elizabeth Huberdeau. The recently-returned WWE Superstar allegedly hooked up with Cena back when he was still married to Huberdeau.
This shocking revelation came by the way of the man Mickie was married to at the time of the affair, Ken Doane. This would eventually lead to Mickie's termination from the WWE in order to protect Cena’s image.
It’s still a little startling to see that the WWE have brought the 5-time WWE Women’s Champion back into the fold despite her fling with the 16-time World Champion, but with her now being married to fellow wrestler, Magnus, and Cena’s long-term commitment to Nikki Bella, perhaps the WWE feels that it is safe to do so now.
#4 Victoria
Not a name many would expect to see on this list, John Cena actually dated former WWE Women’s Champion, Victoria, way back in 2002. Despite Ken Doane’s claims that Cena also cheated on his wife with Victoria, the former TNA Knockouts Champion is quick to quash those allegations.
This is a bit of a convoluted tale as Victoria was married between 1994 and 2015 to Lee Varon but had separated from him numerous times during their union.
It was during one such separation where she says that she dated John Cena for a month when both of them were in Louisville, before making their debuts on the main stage of the WWE.
A short-term relationship that you would not have expected to happen.
#5 AJ Lee
This isn’t one which has been confirmed outright but there are strong rumours of John Cena having hooked up with CM Punk’s current wife, AJ Lee. Lee has been romantically involved with a number of wrestlers during her tenure with the WWE including Cena himself.
Now, with her status as the wife of WWE’s public enemy number one, CM Punk, the company would very much like us to forget that this might have ever been a thing. Still, the rumours always persist that Cena and AJ’s on-screen romance might have made its way off-screen as well.
