John Cena Says He Still Loves Vince McMahon Despite Trafficking Allegations

In January 2024, former WWE employee Janel Grant filed a lawsuit against Vince McMahon, WWE, and John Laurinaitis, accusing them of sexual assault and sex trafficking. While many have turned against McMahon since the lawsuit, John Cena has made it clear that he still loves Vince McMahon no matter what.

In a recent interview with The New York Times, John Cena said he still loves McMahon, but also made it clear that he isn’t ignoring the seriousness of the allegations. Cena acknowledged that people may not agree with him, but said his personal feelings won’t change because of others’ opinions.

“I don’t care who hears it: I love Vince. I’m not downplaying anything that needs to be decided or allegations of any kind, but when I love somebody, I love them wholeheartedly. I know people are going to be angry about that, but they can’t put their value on my relationship with somebody I love.”

This comes after Roman Reigns shared his thoughts on the allegations against Vince McMahon, calling the situation deeply embarrassing and something no one would want their family to go through.

Reigns described the allegations as a stain on WWE’s image and showed support for Janel Grant. He recognized the challenges she has faced and said he hoped she now feels safe and protected.

“It’s embarrassing. That’s stuff you don’t want to hear about. You don’t want your family to hear about. She’s got to live with all these situations that happened, and hopefully she’s in a place where she feels comfortable and she’s secure in her own place.”

WWE’s reputation has certainly been affected by the ongoing lawsuit, but it’s evident that those close to McMahon care about him and John Cena is simply one of them, which is something fans have to accept now.
