- During an interview last week with WFAN Radio, John Cena reveals that his recent anti-steroid comments have landed him in hot water with members WWE management as well as his fellow superstars. Cena got a lot of attention recently for saying that New York Yankee Alex Rodrigez should receive jail time for his past steroid use. Cena re-stated his position during the WFAN interview that harsher penalties, such as the threat of jail time, should be created for athletes who are caught using illegal drugs.
Cena was asked if there's been any negative feedback from WWE for being so out-spoken about the controversial issue, and he said, "Of course there is. I get kickback from corporate. I get kick kickback from my co-workers. But if America is on a campaign to 'clean this thing up,' let's get the word out and start doing something about it."
Cena said there's a different set of rules for high-profile athletes, which doesn't set a good example for kids. "Honestly, if you’re not Alex Rodriguez, or if you’re not (Miguel) Tejada, or if you’re not Barry Bonds, and these guys get caught for substance abuse, it really just ends up a scroller on the ESPN ticker," Cena said. "There is no penalty."
Cena also said it's easy for him to say no to steroids because he's been athletically gifted his entire life and he puts the effort in the gym. "It's actually very easy (to say no). I've always been genetically gifted," Cena said. "In this day in age, I pride myself as being one of those guys who's stronger in the weight room and stronger in the ring." | |

| It would be funny, but I really don't think he uses, from what I read he has been doing weights since he was 8 years old and is kinda a genetic freak in his own right | |

| I don't think he does either, but as he's so anti-steroids, I just hope he's setting himself up for a fall. | |
