Its not just because 'everyone else is doing it.' To say that is to disreguard the hundreds of reasons in the dozens of threads on this board where people tell you why they dont like Cena's character. PLUS...this is the IWC. They always have their reasons why they dont like someone and its never because of what someone else thinks. The IWC often goes against mainstream wrestling logic/feelings anyway. People here are way to caught up in their research and rigorous over-analyzing of every aspect of pro wrestling. There is much to dislike about Cena’s character, don’t kid yourself. We all don’t like the same things. The issue I have personally is that everyone is calling for a change in the one character who get the most reaction, rather it be cheers, boos, sales, or whatever else. Meanwhile, you have all this other talent on the roster who don’t get half, sometimes not even a third of the reaction rather IT be boos, cheers, sales or whatever.
Take Del Rio for example. The IWC loves this guy, but he gets no reaction at all from the crowd or at least, very little. No matter what US arena the WWE is in, Del Rio is supposed to be this super heel who’s great in the ring but people don’t give a shit about him. The WWE cant keep the title on this guy because even with the title he cant get over. Del Rio is NOT over with the WWE universe, but yet I see no threads on how to tweak him. You’d think people would want or at least recognize that something needs to be done with Del Rio, and call for it. You’d think that people would want the E to do something to the talent around Cena to make THEM better thus making the product better. They need to ‘tweak’ a lot of these guys on the roster and they need to push/promote other guys and get them in better positions and the entire product becomes better. Tweaking Cena’s character , that’s already way more over than anyone not named Miz, Punk or Orton (and Henry is starting to get up there right now but he has his long history of sucking working against him) doesn’t help WWE at all.
Cena gets enough of a reaction and is interesting and intriguing enough that if the rest of the product is written/booked/built right, everything will be fine. Cena was the same ol Cena back when Nexus debuted. That was a GREAT program. Not because Cena was great but because the program with Nexus was refreshing and entertaining. People forgot they were tired of Cena during that program. Remember, Cena was getting booed out of buildings waaaay back when RVD faced him and won the WWE championship in the ECW arena. People were tired of his ‘5 moves of doom’ way back when he was having his first program with Edge. The reason its such a problem now is because the WWE sucks overall a lot more than it has in the past lol and Cena is taking the hit for that. CM Punk is supposed to trying to affect change when it comes to the WWE product over all and only then will the show stop sucking. Ask Punk if he thinks Cena should turn heel or be tweaked I bet you he says no. The rest of the show needs to be fixed.
