John Cena's GTA 6 Heel Turn: Meme Confirmed

John Cena's surprise heel turn at WWE Elimination Chamber wasn't just a wrestling event; it became a meme. The long-awaited release of GTA 6 has spawned a humorous trend highlighting events that occurred before its arrival. Cena's heel turn—his first in two decades—perfectly embodies this, transforming the beloved wrestler into a villain before GTA 6's release.

Adding fuel to the fire, Cena himself posted a GTA 6 image on Instagram, acknowledging the meme to his 21 million followers. This wasn't a game leak, but a playful nod to the online joke.

While Cena's post is largely considered meme-related, some speculate it holds a cryptic clue about the game. Given the intense speculation surrounding GTA 6's release date and marketing, this isn't entirely surprising.

So, John Cena's villainous return beat GTA 6 to the punch, but with Take-Two Interactive confirming a Fall 2025 launch window, the wait for GTA 6 is almost over.

In December 2023, a former Rockstar developer attempted to explain the staggered PC release of GTA 6 following its PS5 and Xbox Series X/S launch, urging PC gamers to be patient.
