“I just don’t feel right about it. This is an elegant event. Honestly you should feel ashamed right now for suggesting such a tasteless idea,” he said. “The male body is not a joke.”

Kimmel then argued that Cena “wrestles naked,” to which Cena replied he wrestiles in jorts. “Jorts are worse than naked! Come on!”

Then, Cena stepped carefully out from his hiding place, revealing he was wearing nothing at all, and holding the Oscars envelope in front of him.

“Costumes… they are so important. Maybe the most important thing there is,” Cena said, holding the envelope over his crotch.

Thankfully for him, Kimmel came back on stage to read the nominees for Best Costume Design. When the camera got back to Cena, he was draped in a beautiful curtain.
