John Cena Pays Out Friendly Wager With Debuting MLB Pitcher

WWE legend John Cena is known for inspiring scores of fans with his wrestling triumphs. Last year, Cena was responsible for something just as inspiring, but a little more direct. The “Leader of the Cenation” met baseball prospect Logan Allen by chance, posting a photo with the up and coming athlete. The two became friends and John Cena later playfully bet against the stars prospects, saying he’d bet a dollar that he never made it onto a major league field.

On June 18, Allen proved Cena wrong by pitching in a game for the San Diego Padres. John Cena was on hand at the game, handing the new pitcher a crisp one dollar bill. He had personalized the note with his signature and a message stating that he was wrong. Both men seem happy about how things have played out, and Logan Allen now has one dollar he probably won’t ever spend.

You can see footage from the game and get more information in the WWE Now video chronicling the happening:
