The possibility of a collaboration between Overwatch 2 and John Cena appears to be stronger than ever. The former professional wrestler turned actor has recently shared a cryptic post on his Instagram page, adding fuel to the speculation surrounding an upcoming Overwatch 2 character. As we approach the release date of Overwatch 2 season 6, many streams of this popular Blizzard FPS game have experienced interruptions by a mysterious figure known as Enigma, who seems to “hack” into the broadcasts to tease the Overwatch 2 Invasion update.
The “hack” showcases a hooded figure, believed to be WWE superstar John Cena, who is also recognized for his roles in movies like Bumblebee, Trainwreck, and the Fast and Furious series. Players have meticulously analyzed the details presented and all clues seem to lead to John Cena.
The HTML-style code that appeared on stream during Nathan ‘KarQ’ Chan’s gameplay, shared by Reddit user Umarrii, includes references to John Cena. It features the font family name ‘Felix-Antony’ (Cena’s two middle names), a shortened URL leading to an image displaying the initials ‘JC,’ and the color code ‘#042377,’ which represents Cena’s birthdate, April 23, 1977.
While Blizzard has not officially confirmed anything yet, John Cena himself has posted an intriguing image related to Overwatch on his Instagram account. Known for his unconventional and enigmatic posts, Cena’s Instagram tease can’t be easily dismissed. This time, he leaves a clear trail of clues to follow.
The screenshot actually links to an official ‘Overwatch 2 dev hang’ on Blizzard’s channel, with a specific timestamp indicating the 1:12:05 mark. If you jump to that moment in the stream, you’ll hear Overwatch 2 developers discussing potential crossovers and collaborations with prominent streamers for the game.
All the pieces seem to align, suggesting that Cena may be voicing the character of Enigma, the mysterious hacker, in the upcoming story content. Who better to portray an ominous behind-the-scenes mastermind than someone known for the catchphrase “You can’t see me”? However, since nothing is officially confirmed yet and Cena enjoys teasing his fans, it’s prudent to approach this with some skepticism.
