"I will drop what I'm doing and be involved because I think that's the coolest thing," Cena told Reuters when he was honored for granting 500 wishes in 2015.
The Guinness World Records site called the effort "herculean" because no one else has granted more than 200 wishes.
"If I can offer a fantastic experience, I'll be first in line to do my part," Cena added.
