He made a subtle reference to the clip at an event over the weekend.
John Cena has reacted to the recent viral video showing how he dealt with a fan who approached him while he was dining in a restaurant.
In the clip posted to TikTok, Cena was eating food with a friend when the fan walked towards the wrestler-turned-actor and performed his signature ‘You Can’t See Me’ taunt from WWE.
And while Cena was clearly not happy to be disturbed, he remained patient with the stranger – responding in a composed manner: “Can I enjoy some time with my friends?”
The fan then apologised and left Cena be, who gave a smile of appreciation to the stranger for respecting his wishes.
You can watch the interaction, which led to widespread praise for the WWE star on social media, right here:

Cena himself made a subtle reference to the video during an appearance at the WWE Money in the Bank 2023 event in London at the weekend.
Going up against Australian wrestler Grayson Waller, the duo had a staged argument as to whether Wrestlemania should be held in Australia or the UK.
In response to Waller shouting: “No one says no to the Grayson Waller effect,” Cena quoted the viral clip, responding: “How about: ‘Can I enjoy some time with my friends?'”.
