John Cena apparently wants it all. He starred in a movie, won a WWE championship this weekend and now he's making a move for Eminem's job.
Similar to Em's extravagant performance of "The Real Slim Shady" at MTV's 2000 Video Music Awards, Cena graced the stage of the WWE's 25th Anniversary of WrestleMania XXV with an onslaught of carbon-copied-clones — all posturing their trademark, "You can't see me" move. As he runs through the line of imposters, explosions of fireworks line the sky. It was definitely a entrance to say the least — and was clearly inspired by Em's entrance.

John Cena is a wrestler, actor and hip-hop musician, but is he adding "ice cream connoisseur" to his résumé? Cena closed down Cold Stone Creamery on 42nd Street for a sit-down interview with MTV News about his upcoming movie "12 Rounds." Although ice cream has nothing to do with the film, Cena was game to take on 12 rounds of Cold Stone's creations and 12 rounds of MTV Movies Editor Josh Horowitz's questions — as long as it didn't mess up his clothes. (Wearing a white button-down, fitted blazer, jeans and white sneakers didn't help much!)
It started with one scoop on a cone, which led to cupcakes and shakes. With each round, I was learning more and more about Cena. He loves playing video games but hates losing. "I want someone to play me but lose so I can have status," Cena said. As much as I laughed, I thought to myself, "Did he really just say that?"

Yeah, I'm really about to hit him over the head with this steel chair I'm sitting on. Ooooooh, I'm really gonna do it. I hate his guts. No, I don't think I'm going to do it. Matter of fact, I'm definitely not going to do it. This dude is too much fun.
WWE superstar Edge had me on an emotional roller coaster last night when I attended the WWE's Great American Bash pay-per-view show at Long Island's Nassau Coliseum. Edge was in the main event facing off against Triple H. One minute I cheered the "Rated R Superstar," the next I booed. He's great for laughs and gasps.
The best match of the night had to be John Cena vs. JBL. The two had a New York City Parking Lot Brawl," meaning they fought in the back, surrounded by cars instead of in the ring. The match ended with JBL practically throwing Cena through the windshield of a vehicle from 10 feet in the air. Amazing.
