“Love, But Make It Legal: Nikki Bella Signed a 75-Page ‘Guest Contract’ to Live with John Cena—Because Romance Has Fine Print”

In the world of pro wrestling, John Cena’s catchphrase has always been “You can’t see me. ”

But as it turns out, if you’re Nikki Bella trying to move into his Tampa mansion—you can see the front door… and maybe the back one too, if things don’t go his way.

Before Nikki Bella even had a chance to fluff a pillow or hang a bathrobe in Cena’s walk-in closet, she was met with what some are calling the WWE’s most romantic gesture yet: a 75-page cohabitation agreement.

That’s right—seventy-five glorious pages, reportedly written and reviewed by Cena himself, with all the warmth and tenderness of a corporate liability waiver.

Sources close to the situation (read: tabloids with binoculars) say the contract described Nikki not as a partner, not as a fiancée, but as a guest—a temporary visitor whose right to stay could be terminated faster than a WWE title reign.

One clause allegedly required Nikki to immediately vacate the premises if the couple ever broke up—no exceptions, no tears, just a suitcase and a goodbye wave to the smart fridge.

“He just wanted to protect his assets,” Cena explained in an interview that no one asked for.

“And my emotional well-being.

” Because apparently, nothing heals a broken heart quite like cold, notarized paperwork.

Fans were divided, as always.

Some applauded Cena’s “maturity,” while others asked if maybe someone who needs a 75-page contract to live with his fiancée should consider a therapist instead of a live-in partner.

“I mean, I’ve seen prenups,” said one Bella Army Twitter user.

“But this? This feels like the terms of service you click ‘accept’ on without reading.

Except this time, love might be auto-renewing with conditions. ”

And speaking of conditions—rumor has it the agreement included clauses on when and how houseguests could visit, rules about meal times, and even guidelines on how loud certain TV channels could be after 9 PM.

“It was like The Sims,” a friend allegedly joked.

“But instead of a green bar over your head, you had a legal deadline. ”

Of course, this isn’t Cena’s first tango with controlled romance.

After a difficult divorce years earlier, the wrestling icon turned Hollywood action hero reportedly swore off emotional spontaneity in favor of structure, order, and—apparently—cohabitation litigation.

“You can’t blame him,” said no one at all.

“He just wants to make sure love doesn’t cost him a guest bedroom. ”

For her part, Nikki reportedly did sign the document, though friends say it took some convincing, a legal team of her own, and maybe a few glasses of wine.

“She was in love,” one insider whispered.

“But also—she reads contracts like most people read horoscopes.

With anxiety and blind faith. ”

And yet, despite all the contractual fine print, the relationship didn’t last.

The couple eventually split—amicably, publicly, and, we assume, with proper notice and legally compliant exit procedures.

Now, years later, fans look back at the relationship not with sadness, but with a strange sense of awe.

“He’s the only man I know who turned romance into real estate law,” said a longtime WWE fan.

“Honestly, respect. ”

Some even speculate Cena may now offer his agreement as a downloadable template.

“For $9. 99 a month,” joked one TikTok creator, “you too can ensure your love life is OSHA-compliant. ”

As for Nikki, she’s moved on—happily married, baby in tow, and reportedly living in a house where the only paperwork required is the occasional diaper coupon.

Meanwhile, Cena tied the knot quietly with a Canadian engineer named Shay Shariatzadeh, proving once again that love may be blind—but his contracts certainly aren’t.

In the end, this saga leaves us with one burning question: Was it really about protecting his heart… or just making sure no one adjusted the thermostat without permission?

Whatever the answer, one thing’s for sure: John Cena may be a wrestling legend, a box office star, and a man with a million memes—but when it comes to love? He’s all business.

Because nothing says “I love you” like page 42, section B, clause iii: “Guest agrees to refrain from rearranging kitchen drawers.
