Overview
John Cena is one of the most accomplished professional wrestlers in the history of the WWE. His magnetic personality and in-ring success have contributed to him becoming the face of the company. His popularity amongst the sports entertainment fan base is unmatched, even if he has many detractors as well. John Cena's appeal is so great that it has led to lucrative deals outside the ring including leading roles in action movies. It should be no surprise that John Cena cards and memorabilia are top-sellers today.
As the an 11-time World Champion and another three as Heavyweight Champion, Cena has shown little sign of slowing down. His contribution to the E! network's Total Divas show has further propelled him into the mainstream spotlight.
Demand for John Cena autographs is strong despite being a willing in-person signer and a key part of WWE signing events. Topps currently holds the license for WWE trading cards. As such, Cena has several autograph and memorabilia cards in the market. Unfortunately, all but one of his certified autograph cards thus far are done on stickers.
