Guinness World Records Acknowledges John Cena's Record-Breaking WWE Heel Turn

Guinness World Records has acknowledged that John Cena has broken another record. This time, however, it's for a polar opposite reason to John Cena's previous record-setting work with Make-A-Wish.

John Cena turned heel for the first time since 2003 when he attacked Cody Rhodes and aligned with The Rock at the WWE Elimination Chamber 2025. Before the event, Cena was participating in Make-A-Wish meet-and-greets. Cena was previously awarded the Guinness World Record for the most wishes granted with the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Now, he's broken the record for the longest run as a face in WWE without turning heel. This was acknowledged on the Guinness World Records website.

Cena was the top babyface for 20 years. He never did, despite many calls from die-hard fans for him to turn heel. However, as Triple H discussed during the post-show following the WWE Elimination Chamber, Cena is choosing to challenge himself until the end of his career this year.

John Cena is still posting inspirational quotes on social media, however.
