Twitter users have been left questioning reality after a user revealed that WWE superstar John Cena and star of popular sitcom Hannah Montana, Jason Earles, are the same age - 43 to be precise. One such user named '@y_usraa' tweeted that Jackson (Jason Earles) from Hannah Montana and John Cena are the same age. Her Twitter revelation was backed by two screenshots of internet search results which confirmed 16-time WWE champion John Cena and Jason Earles are both 43 years old.

John Cena and Jason Earles are the same age

Jason Earles played the role of Jackson Stewart, the brother of the title character Miley Stewart, who was also a teenage pop star named Hannah Montana. Earles was a largely popular figure among fans of Hannah Montana and was widely recognised as the goofy tormenting brother to the titular character. Along with the four seasons of the sitcom, Jason Earles also played the character in one feature film. While he last played the part of Jackson Stewart in 2011, Earles is still remembered fondly by fans of the sitcom.

However, this doesn't mean those fans of Jason Earles are not taken aback by the tweet. John Cena, who is one of the most popular WWE superstars in the world, was born on April 23, 1977. Meanwhile, Jason Earles was born just three days later on April 26. Earles' diminutive figure and lack of prominent roles as of late means fans still relate him to his teenage character in Hannah Montana.

Also, when Earles first played the character in 2006, he was already 29. In 2010, John Cena appeared in Hannah Montana during the episode, "Love That Lets Go", and was even seen tussling with Jason Earles. The difference in stature meant at that time Cena appeared more like his father than his buddy.
