Ford sues WWE legend John Cena

Auto giant Ford has sued World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) legend John Cena for allegedly selling a £370,000 GT supercar for a huge profit and breaking the strict contract signed between them.

The 16-time champion was one of only 1,000 lucky people specially selected to be offered the chance to purchase the limited-run vehicle. The company had customers send in applications to buy the supercar and made them sign a contract vowing not to flip the vehicle for a profit.

However, the 40-year-old is accused of selling it - flouting a rule stating he must keep it for at least two years - soon after taking delivery.

According to Detroit ABC affiliate WXYZ, Ford now want any profits Cena made on the 2017 model - supposedly to pay property bills - returned.

The luxury car features an ecoboost V6 engine made entirely of carbon fibre, making it an extremely light vehicle, despite its supreme power.

John Cena is on a break from WWE pursuing his acting career and was last seen in action in the main event of Survivor Series.
