What a remarkable turn of events at Survivor Series, huh?
Yesterday, I commented on the Survivor Series match as perhaps shooting itself in the foot before it had even occurred. We all thought that John Cena's situation within the company would have spoiled the outcome of the match. I, for one, thought that Cena was in far too strong of a company position to even be considered as one of the guys who needed time away from TV. I had thought that the WWE would have found some sort of loophole in the match, much like they have done in the last few months, to ensure that they have the best result for all parties involved, with the exception of the fans.
However, they actually made a decision and followed through on what they said they were going to do. John Cena counted the pin fall and now we all get to have some WWE TV time without John Cena. Now, I a huge fan of the guy and his work has always been stellar in my eyes. The fact that he may be off of WWE TV for a prolonged period really annoys me. With Triple H, Undertaker, Batista and now Cena all going off in other directions for the time being, you feel as though the WWE is losing some of the names that have made it what it is today.
It was a touching moment last night as he went around the fans after the match and his embrace with Orton was pretty heartening but I simply cannot wrap my head around the fact that Cena is going to out for a while. WWE programming has been so centred around him in recent years that it is going to seem as though there is a massive hole in Raw these days.
Personally, I really hope that there is some way out of this for Cena and we all get to see him back sooner rather than later.
