John Cena Reveals His Rigorous Shaving Routine

Have you ever noticed that aside from his tight crew-cut, John Cena is absolutely hairless? Not once has he ever had a shadow of a beard or a speck of incoming hair on his armpits. Maybe this keeps him lethally aerodynamic. Whatever it is, Cena is unconditionally committed to the hairless lifestyle.

In an interview with People Style, the 16x WWE Champion discussed his rigorous shaving habits:

“I’m completely man-scaped from head to toe — from the ears down — so that takes a bit of time,” Cena told PeopleStyle, adding that he spends 30 minutes to an hour a day shaving. “I’m constantly trying to stay up on fine lines in my skin and that stuff, so I’m a lot more grooming-centric than you would realize. My routine is a lot more than you would think — I’d say it’s a strong 7 ½ out of 10.”

Oh, John, you’re being modest – it’s more like a 9.5/10. Cena would continue by underlining that his freshly shaved skin never gets a drop of any kind of aesthetic enhancement:

“I’m one of the only guys that doesn’t wear spandex or oil themselves up,” explained Cena. “I just don’t. Honestly, I’ve been pretty much an open book and what they see is what they see. I just flew in from Australia yesterday and I’ll be on WWE Smackdown Live [last night] and I’ll be worn out and jet-lagged and I don’t care. It’s not one of those things where I need to alter my appearance to appear to be something I’m not. I like the fact that the WWE audience sees me as me and they either love me or hate me for it.”

Cena will be putting impeccably smooth skin on full display this Sunday at WWE’s Battleground. He’ll be taking on his old foe, Rusev in a Flag Match.

We’ll be getting a re-vamping of the 2014 feud between the WWE superstars. The two met at Wrestlemania 31 where Rusev arrived in a tank. Despite the awesome entrance, Rusev would lose to Cena.

Can Rusev exact his revenge at Battleground? It’s hard to see him beating a returning supernova like Cena, but you never know. Rusev still remains one of WWE’s most underutilized talent and a win over someone like Cena would put his comeback on the map. The only thing that is certain is that Rusev will be hairier than Cena come Sunday night.
