Look real close in the background in the scene where goldberg's incline pressing, behind oliver platt (jimmy king)you can see him, he had blond mohawk then lol!
He's only an extra and you have to look real close but it's def him!
can you see him?
shareIt must be someone else..I'm pretty sure that kid Cena was still in highschool when this movie was first being made
shareIt was made in 2000, just 2 years before John made his wwe debut!

I don't think thats the same person. The stunt double is credited as John Cenatiempo, and according to imdb he was born in '63 in NYC. Cena was born in '77 so I doubt it's his dad either.
But I'm almost positive that Cena was in the gym working out. He headed out to LA and did body building work and then trained at UPW (he was in a Discovery Channel documentary that was shot around '00-'01 as they mentioned he was being scouted by WCW and WWE). He would've been 21 or 22 when the movie was shot, so it definitely adds up.
That documentary covers a good bit of Cena before he signed with WWF. I lucked into a VHS copy of it for like $3 a few years back... he's even shown working out with former WWF "Diva", Nicole Bass, who served as Sable's bodyguard.

Yeah, while recently watching this, I noticed John Cenatiempo in the credits for stuntpersons. Figured the similarity in names was too big a coicidence to be nothing. However, I just looked on imdb and there is a profile for John Cenatiempo, dude looks black, nothing like John Cena. Still a crazy coicidence though.

Even though this post is really late, John Cena was way out of high school before this movie was made.
shareIt his him though - just check it's in the scene where Bill Goldberg is incline pressing, you can clearly see him in the background as an extra, you have to look closely though!

There you go - look behind oliver platt (jimmy king) when he's talking to goldberg, behind him you can see john cena on the pec deck machine - he had the blond mohawk back then lol
You have to look really close it's not very clear but it def is him!
His head's the same shape and body's similar I guess but you can't make out the face really so I can't say it's him.
sharei belive he was under the ring name in development as prototype or sumthing.

Well someone hard a hardon for cena... who really cares, Cena is THE reason I stopped watching wrestling altogether, him and also when goldturd turned up in WWE for a pathetic stint, and I watched the clip, it is not cena anyway, I know his wannabe face anywhere.
So go rub one out thinking of your posterboy

I watched it on netflix and I think its him.
shareEven if it is Cena, it wouldn't be all that surprising. Every performer had a "before-they-were-famous" role that always sends obsessive fans scrambling back to watch something they never would have given the time of day otherwise. (Sometimes the future star will have a small role in another film that went on to become famous in its own right. For example, there was the huge, bespectacled bodyguard who's shown to be living with Mr. Alexander in the "spaghetti and wine" scene in A CLOCKWORK ORANGE. That character was portrayed by a bodybuilder who went on play one of the most famous screen villains of all time - but I'll give the uninitiated the pleasure of learning this for themselves through the magic of IMDB.com. Hint: the guy's name is "David Prowse.")
The world of professional wrestling is chock-full of these kinds of "Look-it's-so-and-so!" moments, if only because the performers go into development with WWE or TNA years in advance and aren't "called up" to feature status until some time later. That's why, no, you're not crazy, you really did see Dave Finlay running out with a group of referees and security guards during the 2005 Royal Rumble Match to stop Kurt Angle from beating on Shawn Michaels at ringside - nearly a year before the "Finlay" character actually debuted!
