NEW YORK – WWE Universe, don’t miss John Cena on “Live with Kelly and Michael” Monday! The WWE Superstar, who is recovering from elbow surgery, joins the syndicated morning talk show to talk about WWE’s partnership with Susan G. Komen for the Cure. (WATCH CENA'S TOUT)
“It’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month, so that’s what Susan G. Komen for the Cure is all about,” Cena said. “It’s something we have to find a cure for. I’m just happy to be doing it. It is a great opportunity to spread the message.” (MORE ON WWE & KOMEN)
Cena expressed the importance of all WWE Superstars, himself included, taking time out of their busy schedules to spread goodwill to the WWE Universe and beyond.
“There are a million charities out there and we all have the ones that we’re loyal to,” he told WWE.com. “I have expressed my love for Make-A-Wish multiple times. The concept of the charity is amazing.” (MORE ON CENA & MAKE-A-WISH)
“Being personally affected by cancer in more than one instance — this thing needed to happen, for me,” he said of the Komen partnership. “I’m glad WWE embraced it. I’m glad Susan G. Komen embraced it. It’s fun to be in that position where you can use your voice to send the message and it’s amazing that people will listen.”
Kelly Ripa and Michael Strahan have a few surprises for Cena on Monday’s show, too. They’ll reveal their own signature finishing moves and even taunt WWE Champion CM Punk.
“In a little bit of a different approach, which surprised the hosts, I tried to be as calm as possible and let them be WWE Superstars,” Cena said. “I think they both could have a career in the ring if they decided.”
Surprisingly, the topic of Super Bowl XLII won’t arise on Monday’s episode. Cena is a diehard New England Patriots fan and the Massachusetts-based team lost Super Bowl XLII to the New York Giants in 2008, when Strahan played defensive end.
“I think the best situation there is just not to bring it up,” Cena joked. “I think if we had enough time, it probably would have gone sour.”
“Hopefully I’ll be back for WrestleMania 29 in Met Life Stadium. I’ll be able to be a little more physical and we can see who the better man really is. Maybe that’s a throw down I’m putting out there right now,” he said, challenging the former NFL player.
“He can throw it back at me, it’s all right,” Cena said. “Or if he wants to take it, he can take it. Sooner or later that conversation is going to come up and I’m going to be ‘Captain Sour Grapes.’ I just hope he doesn’t throw a Super Bowl ring in my face.”

John Cena gears up for Sunday’s Daytona 500
John Cena joins a prestigious group of athletes, celebrities, military officials, business leaders and even a U.S. President as the Honorary Starter of the 54th annual Daytona 500 this Sunday! The Superstar will help kick off the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series racing season at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona, Fla.
As the Honorary Starter, Cena will have the opportunity to meet and mingle with NASCAR drivers throughout the weekend, and even attend the drivers’ pre-race meeting. On Sunday morning, the Cenation leader will make an appearance on the Sprint FANZONE Main Stage, where he’ll be introduced to the approximately 182,000 race fans at “The World Center of Racing.”
Then, Cena will climb the flagstand at the start/finish line at the storied 2.5 mile-long tri-oval track, where he’ll officially begin the race by dropping the green flag. It’s an important role, as not only will he be signaling the 43 drivers that the race has begun, but the world will be watching the 10-time WWE Champion as he officially commences “The Great American Race.” (Close to 16 million viewers tuned in to the 2011 Daytona 500!) Leading the pack of drivers will be Cena's longtime friend, Carl Edwards, on the pole position in his No. 99 Roush Fenway Racing Ford.
Past Daytona 500 Honorary Starters include President George H.W. Bush, Whoopi Goldberg, Ashton Kutcher, Mariah Carey, Jackie Joyner-Kersee, NFL Hall of Fame quarterbacks Dan Marino and Terry Bradshaw, and NACSAR legend and seven-time Daytona 500 winner Richard Petty.
NASCAR Sprint Cup driver Edwards raced into Raw SuperShow in his No. 99 Fastenal Ford earlier this month to invite Cena to be the Honorary Starter. The Superstar gladly accepted the honor from the former Raw guest star. (WATCH)
“I’ve got to check my calendar,” Cena joked. “I’ll definitely be there! You have a deal, man. That is awesome!”
The Daytona 500 is the most prestigious and important race in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season, and is known as “The Super Bowl of Stock Car Racing.” According to daytonainternationalspeedway.com, the 500-mile, 200-lap race has the biggest total payout in prize money for any U.S. motorsports event. In 2007, more than $18 million in prize money was given out, with past winners that include the late Dale Earnhardt Sr., Dale Earnhardt Jr., Jimmie Johnson, Jeff Gordon and Richard Petty.
2011 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series runner-up Edwards, whom Cena first befriended in 2007 when the driver mentored him on the reality series, Fast Cars and Superstars: The Gillette Young Guns Celebrity Race, has never won the Daytona 500. Will Cena be the good luck charm his friend needs this Sunday as he starts on the pole?
Watch Cena start the 54th annual Daytona 500 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race Sunday, Feb. 26, at 1 p.m. ET, live on FOX. Stay tuned to WWE.com for complete coverage of Cena at the Daytona 500 and follow Cena on Twitter @JohnCena.
