John Cena Shoots Down Talk of You Can’t See Me 20th Anniversary Re-Release

John Cena isn’t here for a nostalgic cash grab—and he made that clear during his FAN EXPO Boston 2025 panel.

With the 20th anniversary of his platinum-selling rap album You Can’t See Me on the horizon, one fan asked whether a vinyl edition or a special re-release with unreleased tracks was in the works. Cena didn’t hesitate to shut that down with his signature honesty.

The fan pointed out that Cena is a “platinum selling rapper” and asked if there was any talk with WWE about pressing a vinyl version or releasing old unreleased material. Cena quickly made it clear that those unreleased songs didn’t make the cut for a reason.

“Dang, those songs that didn’t get released—they didn’t get released ‘cause they suck. Like, y’all don’t want me to put out an album of bad music.”

He followed up with another reality check for fans hoping for a deluxe edition:

“If we didn’t have anything new to offer, I don’t think it would be any good. So I’ma hold off on that right now.”

Cena’s blunt response drew laughs but it also reaffirmed his no-nonsense philosophy when it comes to his legacy. He’s not putting out something just to cash in on the past—especially if the material doesn’t meet his own standards.

For those hoping to see Cena drop a fresh rap project or celebrate his You Can’t See Me milestone in some other way, you might want to hold off on that preorder.
