John Cena is showing off his impressive flexibility. **
The *Peacemaker* actor and professional wrestler, 48, almost performed the splits while participating in a leg-separating game called "While Guess" during Wednesday night's episode of* The Tonight Show.* Oh, and he did it all while dressed as Peacemaker, too. **
The rules of the game were simple: correctly guess a true or false question about your competitor and the wooden boards they were standing on would separate, causing their legs to split further and further apart. Get it wrong, and your own boards would shift. The last person standing wins, with the loser having to scream their chosen "safe word" and jump into the smoky, shark-infested waters below them.**

"Excellent! A fun game of torture!" Cena teased after hearing the rules, flashing an excited thumbs-up to the audience. "Fantastic!"
Things did not start off well for Cena, whose boards began to separate after he incorrectly guessed that Fallon could play John Mayer's "Your Body Is a Wonderland" on ukulele. However, the field quickly evened out when Fallon also failed to guess that Mayim Bialik was Cena's first crush.

Cena's legs began to spread to an uncomfortable degree after he incorrectly guessed that Fallon had a Kenny Loggins poster in his dorm room. "This is getting real right now," he confessed as he adjusted his stance. "Came out here to have some fun..."
In an effort to cheer Cena up, Fallon assured him that they'd promote the second season of his DC series *Peacemaker* after this, to which Cena replied, "Hey, the plug isn't gonna bring my D back! When it breaks, it's broken!"**
After two more incorrect guesses, Cena's legs were split apart until he was nearly in a full middle split. "You're like Jean-Claude Van Damme," Fallon said, prompting Cena to respond, "I'm like, Jean-Claude Van *damn* this hurts right about now."
He continued to flub his answers until Fallon claimed that Cena had "maxed out" the full distance of the boards and crowned him "the ultimate champion" in the end.**
As a result, Fallon screamed his safe word — 'labubu' — and plummeted into the smoky, shark-infested waters below them. **
