John Cena surprised fans with a heel turn at WWE Elimination Chamber, marking his first shift to a "bad guy" role in over 20 years. Adding to the buzz, Cena cleverly joined the Grand Theft Auto 6 (GTA 6) meme trend by posting an image of the game on social media. The meme highlights the long wait for GTA 6's release, which has now been set for fall 2025, and juxtaposes it with unexpected events that have occurred in the meantime, like Cena's heel turn.
Cena, known for his iconic roles as a WWE superstar and a beloved figure in the Make-A-Wish Foundation, shared the GTA 6 image with his 21 million Instagram followers. This move was not a leak about his involvement in the game, but rather a playful nod to the ongoing meme. However, some fans speculated that his post might hint at something more about GTA 6, reflecting the intense anticipation and speculation surrounding the game.
The excitement for GTA 6 is palpable, especially after a former Rockstar developer explained in December 2023 why the game will launch on PS5 and Xbox Series X and S before coming to PC. The developer urged PC gamers to trust Rockstar's strategy, despite the controversial decision.
As we await GTA 6's fall 2025 release, the gaming community remains eager for more news, including any updates on GTA Online's future, as addressed by Take-Two's CEO Strauss Zelnick.
