WWE legend John Cena has been offered a massive fee by an adult website after his ‘naked’ Oscars appearance.
On Sunday night, all eyes were on the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles as the 96th Academy Awards took place.
During the ceremony, wrestler-turned-actor Cena walked on stage wearing nothing but sandals and a watch, with the envelope containing the winner just about hiding his manhood.

Cena’s decision to appear ‘naked’ was a reference to an actual streaker who disrupted the 1974 Academy Awards.
As Cena walked on stage, host Jimmy Kimmel said: “At the 46th Academy Awards, 1974, David Niven was in the middle of introducing Elizabeth Taylor when a nude man - a streaker - ran across the stage.
“Can you imagine if a nude man ran across the stage today?”
However, the idea of him appearing on stage naked was debunked shortly after images of the WWE superstar from backstage emerged.
On the back of his Oscars appearance, the adult website CamSoda has offered Cena a lucrative offer worth €500,000.
As reported by Daily Mirror, CamSoda CEO Daryn Parker wrote in an email: “As I write to you now, I am wearing my favorite pair of Jorts watching a compilation of your greatest WWE highlights.
“Tough for me to say, but I think you are as good an actor as you are a wrestler! After last night's revealing Oscars performance, it's clear you're still in great shape.”
It continued: “Whether it was last night or during Wrestlemania, we're happy to help you strut your stuff.
“After all, there's quite a few people that'd love to watch you strip down your iconic Jorts and see the real 'five knuckle shuffle.’”
Cena recently expressed his desire to return to WWE action soon, declaring he is "crossing my fingers" during an appearance on ESPN's First Take.
