I’m not a wrestling fan, but I’ve learned that in the WWE John Cena is a big deal. So in the tradition of Dwayne Johnson, Hulk Hogan and others it looks like he’s working on making the transition to movie action hero. If you’re a fan of Cena, you’ll be interested in the DVD/Blu-ray release of his upcoming film 12 Rounds, and we have a few copies of the DVD to give away.

WWE® SUPERSTAR JOHN CENA FACES THE ULTIMATE CHALLENGE IN THE HARDCORE ACTION-PACKED THRILLER

A brilliant killer with a score to settle is putting Detective Danny Fisher to the ultimate test when 12 Rounds explodes with an unrated “Extreme Cut” on Blu-ray with Digital Copy and DVD June 30 from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment. WWE Superstar John Cena (The Marine) stars as Fisher, a New Orleans police officer playing a vicious game of cat and mouse after spoiling the multi-million dollar heist plan of an Irish arms dealer. When the thief’s girlfriend is accidentally killed in the melee he vows revenge, breaking out of prison and putting Fisher through a series of mental and physical challenges in order to save his kidnapped fiancée. With the clock ticking, Danny struggles to keep his focus as he races through The Big Easy completing each dangerous game and hoping he is still standing at the end of 12 Rounds.

Watch John Cena movies, in between the explosions, the acting is surprisingly good. This isn’t an 80’s action star, this guy is for real
I personally think that John Cena is the worst thing that has happened to the WWE in the last 10 years. He’s also the worst thing that has happened to acting in a very long time. In spite of all of this, My fiance’s son is enamored by Cena and would very much love to have this movie for his birthday next month. Regardless of whether I win one of the four copies here, he’s probably going to get the movie. I think the truely sad thing is that Cena could have been a very good wrestler and over with the long time fans if the WWE creative staff had just let him do what he was doing and not nutered him for the new “family friendly” WWE.
i would like to win because i have been watchin john cena since he started and followed him right through his careear he has to be one of the best wrestlers on wwe to day
Enter me!
Congrats to the winners.
You do realize that if people can’t put proper punctuation and spelling into their post, they’re probably lying about their sob story, right? Case in point, the little girl whose mother wrote an untrue sob story from the girl’s perspective about her father getting killed in Iraq to win Hannah Montana tickets.
@Wildguess
That’s why I usually do random selection. But really, how does punctuation and grammar relate to someone’s personal trials?
And after all, we’re only talking about a $20 DVD here, not anything significant – although I do appreciate your feedback since I wouldn’t rule that out.

I’m more of the opinion that punctuation and grammar indicate age and maturity level. Usually those who use neither are those who are constantly on the computer or texting device. I’ve worked in hospice and my fiance works with developmentally challenged children and adults. In both cases, primary care givers are very detail oriented and mature. Also, those who have a developmentally disabled child almost never use a broad term. They, in almost all cases, use the specific ailment when talking about their child. Many of the sob story posts don’t read like something a primary care giver would write. On the flip side, my fiance and I have been following wrestling for most of our lives and one thing we’ve learned about Cena is that his fans are largely boys under 14 and girls under 22. Most of the people in this age group have a very distinct writing style. Another piece of deductive reasoning is from the poll results. Anyone who isn’t already enamored with John Cena can see that he has less acting talent then Maria Carey in Glitter, yet he gets second place in the poll. My final piece of deductive reasoning was that certain posters couldn’t make their story fit with Cena’s career timeline. Cena started on SmackDown in 2002 as a heal, didn’t gain much popularity until 2004, and wasn’t on Raw until 2005. And yes, I know everything I’ve said in circumstantial. Mind you, I don’t really care about winning, I just wish people in this world were a little more honest. Just goes along with my personal motto “Hope for Kant, expect Hobbes.” For those who don’t understand that, do a little philosophy research and you’ll get it.
