Celebrities John Cena and Stone Cold Steve Austin Shine in Super Bowl Ads

WWE Icons Shine Bright in Super Bowl Commercial Spotlight

In the midst of the Super Bowl frenzy, where the clash of titans is not limited to the football field alone, wrestling aficionados had plenty to cheer about as WWE icons took center stage in a series of captivating commercials.

The Super Bowl, renowned for its pulsating football action and dazzling halftime spectacles, also serves as a platform for the debut of a plethora of new commercials, and this year was no exception.

Among the stars that graced the screens during this year’s commercial breaks were some familiar faces from the WWE universe.

John Cena, the former 16-time WWE World Champion, made a fleeting yet memorable appearance in a FanDuel advertisement. In a light-hearted moment, Cena poked fun at former WWE 24/7 Champion and NFL tight end Rob Gronkowski for a missed high-stakes field goal, much to the delight of fans.

Cena, whose last WWE appearance was at Crown Jewel 2023, has evidently not lost his knack for entertaining audiences, even beyond the wrestling ring.

Adding to the WWE presence, Jade Cargill, one of the company’s rising stars and former AEW TBS Champion, featured prominently in a new Mountain Dew commercial. The ad, released ahead of the game, showcased Cargill’s charisma and star power, leaving a lasting impression on viewers.

Cargill’s recent debut at the Royal Rumble 2024 further solidified her status as one to watch in the wrestling world, and her appearance in a high-profile Super Bowl ad only reinforces that notion.

Meanwhile, the legendary Stone Cold Steve Austin brought his trademark intensity to a Super Bowl commercial for Kawasaki. Austin, a WWE Hall of Famer, demonstrated once again why he remains a beloved figure both inside and outside the wrestling ring.

Not to be outdone, another WWE Hall of Famer, Arnold Schwarzenegger, made a memorable cameo in State Farm’s “Agent State Farm” Super Bowl commercial. Schwarzenegger, known for his iconic roles in Hollywood blockbusters, has maintained strong ties with the WWE over the years, earning him a well-deserved spot in the Celebrity Wing of the WWE Hall of Fame in 2015.

The presence of these WWE icons in Super Bowl commercials not only adds an extra layer of excitement for wrestling fans but also underscores the enduring popularity and crossover appeal of the sport beyond the confines of the ring.
