This will be like shooting fish in a barrel.
1. He CANNOT wrestle. He has six moves at most. Shoulder block, backwards powerbomb thingy, top rope thingy, 5 knuckle shuffle, and the AA.
I always love when the ignorants use moves to try and determine quality of wrestling.
Apparently storytelling, selling, psychology, connecting with the crowd, etc. mean nothing anymore. I'll tell you what, why don't you go find a wrestling training DVD and watch that. They'll do a bunch of moves on there, and in your opinion, will be the greatest wrestlers ever. Nevermind the fact their training partner will stand right back up, and it's hard to have a match like that, but if that is what suits your fancy, then go for it.
Those of us who actually know about wrestling will continue to watch great wrestlers like John Cena.
2. Shoved down our throats like a fucking monkey. This guy is in every fucking main event when there are much more deserving wrestlers out there like Cm Punk, Daniel Bryan, Dolph Ziggler, and John Morrison!!!
When people quit paying money to watch John Cena, he'll quit being in the main-event.
Don't blame Cena, don't blame the WWE, blame the millions of people who spend millions of dollars to watch him. When Punk, Bryan, Ziggler and Morrison can make the kind of money Cena does, they'll be in the main-event too.
3. Horrible gimmick. Never give up, hustle, loyalty, respect, never back down from a challenge? What the fuck? This sounds like something a fucking 1st grade teacher would say!
Like Hamler said:
"Since when is it bad to be a good guy? "
Amazing how people criticize someone who tries to do the right thing, and will defend to the death a guy who beats his wife in an alcoholic rage.
4. Bad mic skills. I can tell exactly what he is going to say.
Makes fun of someone... tries to be funny... tells jokes... calls the person out... DONE!
You're too funny. Here, I'll play this game too. Give me a wrestler, and I'll provide a generic response of what they'll say. Nevermind determining how well they say it, or how interesting they make it, I'll just give you an overview.
Punk: "Things need to change in the WWE. I'm tired of being held back. Piss, piss, moan, moan."
Ziggler: "I'm great. Vickie's my manager. I hate Swagger".
Morrison: "I'm all about park...wait, everyone fell asleep already?"
See, I can play this game too.
5. All his matches are predictable. Gets beat up, does his 5 moves of fucking doom, back and forth counters for about 30 seconds, and he either does the AA, STF, or his opponent cheats to win.
Yup, that's exactly like his last four PPV matches.
Wait, no it's not. Not at all actually. Tell me, do you ever even WATCH John Cena matches, or are you just a mindless robot who repeats the things other morons say?
6. His only fans are girls and little children. Hear the "Let's go Cena! Cena sucks!" chants? The lets go Cena chants are high pitched voices and the Cena sucks chants are from teens and adult males.
So he has two groups of people that cheer him and only one group of people that boo him (males 16-24) and that's considered a bad thing? I can just as easily say "The only people who boo him are 16-24 males".
So, unless you're going to try and tell me that one set of wrestling fan is better than another, you look like an idiot right now. And if you DO try to tell me one set of wrestling fan is better than another, you'll look like a BIG idiot right now.
Oh, and I'm a 27 year old man, who has forgotten more about wrestling than you could possibly know. My wrestling knowledge is superior in every way to yours, and I like John Cena.
7. He is only a draw to little kids and women. You hear the boos? Yes, they are a reaction, but are they the right one?
What does reaction have to do with drawing? Ric Flair is considered to be the NWA's biggest draw in the 80s, and he did it by getting booed.
I don't think you have any idea what being a draw means.
8. Beats up like 5 people at a time. How is that believable???
How is your statement accurate? When has he ever done that on a regular basis?
9. Oversells every little fucking punch. One light punch = knocked down for a minute? REALLY?
Now you're just being completely ridiculous.
Have you ever watched the UFC, or any kind of MMA? Did you see the Mayweather vs. Ortiz fight? One punch can knock a person out for a long time.
Wow, you know nothing about wrestling.
Let somebody like John Morrison, Daniel Bryan, Dolph Ziggler, or Cm Punk carry the WWE. PLEASE!
I love how you're trying to claim Cena is a bad wrestler, and then mention guys like Ziggler and Morrison.
SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHY JOHN CENA IS THE FACE OF THE COMPANY WHEN THERE ARE BETTER AND MORE DESERVING PEOPLE THAN HIM!!!
Name one who makes more money than Cena. THAT'S how you can tell who is more deserving.
REMEMBER CHRISTIAN??? BOOKED LIKE SHIT AND STILL GETS A GOOD REACTION???
How do you even begin to argue with someone as delusional as you?
DANIEL BRYAN? THE BEST IN-RING PERFORMER OF ALL TIME?
Wow, I think this is one of the stupidest things I've ever read on here, and that takes talent. Even ascribing to your wrongful and idiotic notion of what makes a good wrestler, in what world is Daniel Bryan better than a guy like Bret Hart? Or Ric Flair? Or Lou Thesz? Or Bob Backlund? Or Kurt Angle? Or...you get the point.
Do yourself a favor. Read less posts from the idiots in the IWC, and read more from the knowledgeable ones in the IWC. I'll let you tag along with me if you want. You could learn an awful lot.
I REMEMBER SEEING A THREAD ABOUT WHO IS THE TOTAL PACKAGE AND I WAS ROLLING ON THE FLOOR LAUGHING WHEN I SAW THE ADMINISTRATOR OF THIS FORUM, SLYFOX, SAY THAT JOHN CENA WAS THE TOTAL PACKAGE...5 MOVES, HORRIBLE JOKES, BORING PROMOS, AND AN AWFUL GIMMICK MAKES YOU THE TOTAL PACKAGE??? REALLY???
Let's evaluate:
1. You know nothing about wrestling.
2. You think having good offensive moves determines how good of a wrestler you are, despite how completely illogical that is (for reasons I've already explained).
3. You think being a man who stands up for doing the right thing is horrible, which says a lot about what kind of a lowlife person you must be.
4. You have no idea of what it means to be good on the mic, and you think Dolph Ziggler and John Morrison are good in-ring workers.
5. You think Daniel Bryan is a better in-ring worker than HBK, Hart, Flair, Thesz, Savage, Backlund, etc.
6. You think that appealing to a large demographic is a bad thing, and prove it by pointing to two different groups Cena appeals to, and compare that to the one group Cena doesn't. Apparently, in your opinion, one is better than two, which shows you flunked kindergarten mathematics.
7. You're a liar, which is evident by your statement that Cena beats up 5 people by himself, when last summer's Nexus angle clearly proved that statement a lie.
8. You think getting punched in the face doesn't hurt, despite years of MMA and boxing proving you wrong.
9. You think Cena gets a bad reaction, but Christian gets a great one.
10. I know enough about wrestling to point out the first 9 of these statements.
So whose opinion on wrestling quality is more trustworthy? I'm going to say mine.
Rated RKO E, no matter how much logic you use here, you are still going to get shit on by the Cena sympathizers.
Perhaps, but he should at least TRY to use logic. He was just being a mindless sheep. You would know something about that, wouldn't you?
The problem is that he doesn't know how to work a competitive match like Punk and Del Rio do.
Name the last match Del Rio had that comes close to doing what Cena did with Punk. Before Cena, name the last match Punk had that was of high quality.
I can name you numerous great Cena matches, which have told all sorts of different stories, in all sorts of different ways. Cena > Punk/Del Rio and it's not even close.
The problem is that Vince McMahon is the most stubborn human being on the face of the earth.
No no no. This is where you fail YOUR logic test.
Vince McMahon isn't stubborn, Vince McMahon is smart. When you see your company is making its greatest profits since the Attitude Era, only a dumb person would change what's working. It must be nice for you, who doesn't have any skin in the game, to play armchair wrestling booker, but for the guys who make a living based on the show, they're going to put the guy who makes the most money in the main-event. And until that's no longer Cena, Cena is going to main-event.
So regardless of how the fans reacted
Who cares how they react, as long as they pay money to get into the show?
That's what people like you don't understand. Wrestling is about one thing, and one thing only; money. If you make it, you're great. If you don't, you're not. It's really that simple.
