Actor and WWE star John Cena was slammed online starting late Monday evening and continuing well into Tuesday morning after apologizing to communist China for calling Taiwan a “country.”

Cena called Taiwan a “country” during a promotional video for his upcoming movie “Fast & Furious 9.” In his apology, Cena said [emphasis added]:

Hi China, I’m John Cena. I’m in the middle of Fast and Furious 9 promotions. I’m doing a lot of interviews. I made a mistake in one of my interviews. Everyone was asking me if I could use Chinese – [movie] staff gave me a lot of information, so there was a lot of interviews and information.

I made one mistake. I have to say something very, very, very important now. I love and respect China and Chinese people. I’m very, very sorry about my mistake. I apologize, I apologize, I’m very sorry. You must understand that I really love, really respect China and the Chinese people. My apologies. See you.

The following are just a small sample of the types of responses that Cena received over his apology:

Josh Jordan: “China neutered John Cena for the entire world to see.”

John Cardillo: “@JohnCena is China’s b***h. Taiwan is a country.”

Andrew Egger: “Oh good, another one of these utterly embarrassing bow-and-scrape ‘please don’t stop buying our product China!’ cycles”

AG Conservative: “Pathetic, but not nearly as pathetic as the companies who make these movies bending over at every request from the CCP and then lecturing Americans about the immorality of completely average laws they don’t like in places like Georgia and Texas.”

Jack Posobiec: “This is called a kowtow. It is not something a champion would do.”

Annika H Rothstein: “Two thoughts here: 1. Taiwan is in fact a country 2. John Cena is in fact a cowardly, dictatorship-hugging piece of 💩”

Logan Dobson: “Are Hollywood types not embarrassed by this? It’s obviously embarrassing, I just wonder if folks selling out to a genocidal regime for extra box office juice have the capacity to feel that.”
