Then he'll be well past his prime. There are more talented and more attractive white guys from around the world that Hollywood will pick over John.

It took Rock 10 years before his movies really started blowing up, and that was because he joined the cast of a wildly successful franchise. Rock was almost 40 before he became a leading man and true box office draw. There is no such thing as "well past his prime" in an era when Stallone looks like this

at 70. Rock and Cena are going to be jacked up monsters who can do action movies for decades to come.

Keenan thompson is awful at being funny

He was actually really funny on Kenan and Kel because he was the straight man. He was sarcastic and deadpan, making all sorts of confused facial expressions and reacting to Kel's stupidity. That's the kind of role I believe he excels at.

Remember, Stallone started his acting career in his twenties and his breakout hit was based on a screenplay written by him. So, his 40 plus year resume allows Stallone to continue acting while looking like a sagging mess.
Dwayne had to leave the business completely before finding real success in Hollywood. He also created a production company.
Plus, there are others in Hollywood that have a similar look to John.
Cena starting relatively late in the Hollywood game while trying to remain the top dog in the WWE is going to limit his time in Hollywood.

All it takes is one big hit and Cena's good to go. You're underselling how gigantic Cena is. Go find the biggest muscle dude who is a main actor and not some mook in a movie. Rock and Cena both are twice the size of dudes like Chris Hemsworth and Chris Evans. If Cena puts in the work that Rock did/does (IE doing as many projects as humanly possible), he'll be fine in the end. He'll never be as popular or successful in movies as Rock has been, but I definitely see Cena doing a lot more than Austin has (which to be fair to Austin, his movies are excellent B action movie throw backs). Cena's not going to be wrestling full time much longer.

Cena's star quality will be based on if he gets a SNL gig and smashes it hosting. Worked for Rock and when Hogan did it it opened up wrestlemania/rock n wrestling in pop culture
