This was a sobering reminder today. It has been almost 12 years since Jeff Foxworthy debuted a show on Fox that had America talking.

"Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader" premiered on February 27, 2007 and featured adults trying to answer questions that 10-11 year-olds find routine.

The results, as you might imagine, hilarious.

Well, that show is now being revived on Nickelodeon and hosted by WWE legend, John Cena. He's no stranger to the network having hosted their annual Kid's Choice Awards in 2017 and 2018, and he's fired up about the new gig.

"I can't wait to see kids defeat grownups who find themselves back in the classroom."

I can't wait to see MONSTROUS but gently Cena surrounded by kids that will look like shrunken action figures next to him.
