Cena on Fruity Pebbles

FROM LORDS OF PAIN

After months of being called a Fruity Pebble by his WrestleMania 28 opponent, John Cena can no longer deny The Rock’s claims.

In a cross-promotion between WWE and the Post Cereal company, John Cena is now featured on the box of Fruity Pebbles cereal. Fans who buy the Fruity Pebbles box featuring John Cena will get a chance to win tickets to a live WWE event, exclusive John Cena merchandise and a chance to meet John Cena himself.

A fan asked Cena on Twitter this weekend if it was ironic that he was featured on the Fruity Pebbles box and he replied:
“Ironic? No. Turning a negative into a positive ..yes. rise above hate. By the way…I love fruity pebbles.”

It's good business for both the WWE & Post Cereal and on a unrelated topic is the WWE just started selling 'Cena Sucks' T-Shirts at a recent WWE House Show...

Cena can thank the Rock for that extra pay check he'll receive from Post Cereal

I think Vince dropped the ball with the Cena T-Shirts

He could have been selling them for a few years and not waiting until now for it

Awesome! I gotta go get a box of that. I haven't had Fruity Pebbles in a long time.

Cena can thank The Rock for that! After all he came up with that, so does that mean The Rock gets some of that endorsement cash?

Between this and the CENA SUCKS t-shirts, gotta give both Cena and WWE major props fort taking advantage of a phenomenal business opportunity. Sometimes it does pay to set aside your ego for the all mighty dollar.

Post Foods is a beast of a company. For Cena/WWE to get the blessing of such an established entity is a huge coup. Kraft is engineering their spin-off, which should do very well over the long term. Honey Bunches of Oats is their top seller, I wonder if WWE can land that one as well.

I think it's a good deal all around and probably proof why no matter that the internet smarks want, Cena will be a face for a while.
