Yes, the WWE star’s cringe-inducing bold scene left Bella so scared she admitted she “couldn’t m********e” after seeing it.
Back in 2015, Cena flexed his acting chops in Trainwreck, starring alongside Amy Schumer in the Judd Apatow rom-com. He played Steven, a gym-obsessed boyfriend who was just… not it. Cue the now-infamous scene, which Cena revealed wasn’t even scripted the way it turned out. On Larry King Now, he spilled, “We got into the room and started to ad-lib.” Apparently, Schumer and Apatow were all for ditching the planned physical humor and cranking up the awkward. Mission accomplished.
But for Bella? It was way too much. In a 2018 episode of Total Bellas, she let it all out, saying, “Imagine watching your man do an intimate scene and have the whole world see his big butt.” She added, “You get visuals. I swear I couldn’t m********e forever because I just think of the scene.” Ouch.
At the time, Bella and Cena were still engaged, with their relationship plastered all over the first three seasons of Total Bellas. From heart-to-hearts to blowouts, the show gave fans a front-row seat to their romance. But things weren’t picture-perfect behind the scenes.
By 2019, the couple called it quits. Bella later opened up on the Better Together podcast, explaining, “We did have such an incredible relationship, but it was two people that wanted two different lives.” Even when Cena was willing to consider kids, Bella could tell it wasn’t what he truly wanted. And that was the final straw.
Post-split, Bella leaned into new chapters—retiring from WWE, becoming a mom, and diving into entrepreneurship with her sister Brie. Reflecting on their WWE exit during the Nikki & Brie Show podcast, she said, “We’re going to be 40 in November. We’re mothers. We’re entrepreneurs… it was just time.”
Cena, on the other hand, has been crushing it in Hollywood, from The Suicide Squad to Peacemaker. But no matter how many blockbuster hits he racks up, that Trainwreck bold scene remains unforgettable.
Love, awkward intimate scenes, and a broken libido—Cena and Bella’s past has it all. While they’ve moved on, this wild throwback still lives rent-free in fans’ heads. And honestly, who can blame them?
