WWE Superstar John Cena has teamed up with Neutrogena to be the face of their new “Sunscreen You Can’t See” campaign where he will be appearing in ads for the company’s Ultra Sheer Mineral Face liquid sunscreen.

In an exclusive story on PEOPLE, the 16-time world champion also revealed a past skin cancer diagnosis, which is why he was eager to participate and spread the word about the importance of using sun screen.

Cena recounted how when he moved to Florida in his early twenties, he fell in love with the sun and never used any skin protection, but it all caught up to him.

“It wasn’t until I went to a dermatologist and got a skin checkup and had a cancerous spot removed from my right pec,” he said. “I was very lucky to have a great dermatologist who kind of, I guess for lack of a better term, held me by the hand and let me know that I wasn’t alone.”
