Amy Schumer has built her career on saying what others won’t — and her latest remarks about her Trainwreck co-star John Cena prove she hasn’t lost her edge. Nearly a decade after the film’s release, Schumer reignited buzz by joking that Cena was “actually inside her” during their infamous bedroom scene. The outrageous quip, delivered with her signature blend of shock and humor, left fans both laughing and wincing, reminding everyone why she remains one of comedy’s most unapologetic voices.
In the 2015 Judd Apatow-directed rom-com, Schumer plays a commitment-averse writer opposite Cena’s gym-obsessed boyfriend. Their steamy-yet-awkward love scene became one of the film’s most talked-about moments—not for its sensuality, but for its deliberate absurdity. Schumer later joked that being under Cena felt like “a refrigerator pressing down” on her, describing his physique with both admiration and comedic exaggeration. Her self-deprecating humor only added to the charm, admitting, “I just did what I normally do during sex—just lay there.”
Cena, for his part, has also embraced the joke over the years. In interviews, he’s described the filming process as “intentionally uncomfortable,” noting how unglamorous intimate scenes truly are with cameras, crew members, and lighting rigs surrounding them. He credited Schumer for making him laugh through the awkwardness, calling her professionalism and comedic timing essential to pulling the scene off. The collaboration, he said, helped him loosen up and ultimately paved the way for more comedic roles in Blockers and Peacemaker.
Years later, Schumer revisited the moment online, posting tongue-in-cheek tributes to Cena that reignited laughter and nostalgia among fans. What could have been an uncomfortable memory instead became an enduring pop culture moment — a mix of vulnerability, absurdity, and bold honesty. Together, Schumer and Cena turned an awkward rom-com gag into a scene people are still talking about, proving that when humor meets humility, even the most cringe-worthy moments can become legendary.
