Marc's Achievements: Wednesday Night Ramblings - January 13 2016

John Cena has been a staple of WWE television for well over a decade. In that time many wrestling fans have turned on Cena, whilst others have stayed on his side. This created the “Let’s go Cena, Cena sucks” chants you hear all the time. To each their own opinion, but where do I figure Cena to be?

John Cena is a 12 time WWE champion. Therein lies part of the problem. Modern audiences do not like always seeing the same people on top. This isn’t the old days where Bruno Sammartino stayed champion for 7 straight years. The smart wrestling fan of wants to see a lot of people they deem better on top. A lot of people seem to think Cena only has 5 moves, which is preposterous. Of the all time greats such as Hulk Hogan, Stone Cold Steve Austin or The Rock, none of them comes even close to what Cena can do in the ring. Historically, Cena is the best face of the company wrestler of all time. Another argument says that his promos are awful. Granted, when he tries to do the bad comedy, it is truly awful. But in recent years he’s cut back on those and delivered serious promos that are engaging

Some have said that Cena has held people down in order to stay on top. The only way to know whether or not this is true would be to have been there, so I’ll chalk that up to the Internet making shit up.

The final verdict for me is Let’s Go Cena, but with a condition. I don’t think he should be in the WWE world title picture. He’s won it enough and his being champion doesn’t bring anything new or exciting. Rather he should stay in the US title hunt. His open challenge has been one of the best parts of Raw and it delivered excellent matches. He also brings much needed prestige to a belt that hasn’t been important. Keep him working with the younger talent and he can always take the main event with the US title when need be.
