John Cena has been featured in countless memorable moments throughout his WWE career. In one of his more critically-panned angles, he spray-painted “JBL is poopy” on JBL’s limo on the July 7, 2008 episode of WWE Raw.
The segment came on many years later, as former WWE Writer Brian Gewirtz was asked about it on Twitter/X. One fan wanted to know whether Cena had his own writer for promos. Gewirtz responded by saying that, as he called, Cena came up with a great deal of his promos himself, but he was happy to collaborate and take suggestions. However, Gewirtz clarified that the “JBL is poopy” line was entirely Cena’s idea.
As I recall @JohnCena came up with a great deal of his promos himself, especially his early raps but he was always happy to collaborate and take any and all suggestions to make a segment better. Except the time he wrote “JBL is poopy” on @JCLayfield’s limo. That was all him. https://t.co/uiovQvzJcJ
