Is the "Hustle" reffering to "hustlin" as in grifting, swindling, Rick Ross "everyday I'm hustlin"
Or is it hustle in the sense of "Hey sport, good hustle"
I can see pros and cons of both positions.
On one hand, "hustlin" works because it is a black person thing and would be consistent with Mr. Cena's desire to be a black man (or "thug" if you will). However, urban dictionary defines "hustlin" as doin whatever you gotta do to get that paper. Does that include hustlin at the expense of loyalty and respect? That seems inconsistant to me.
"Hey sport, good hustle" also works because we see John Cena "hustling" to the ring every week in a full out sprint. This could also be seen in a hiphop context as a "throwback" to the days of the Rockers and the Ultimate Warrior who used to sprint to the ring. However, thugs are usually pretty lazy and have no desire to run anywhere unless being chased.
What do you think?
