For the sake of the AJ Styles' and Kevin Owens' of the wrestling world, the WWE/Vince seriously need to reconsider the booking of John Cena's feuds and PPV matches.
This is what struck me moments ago, as I was watching the Styles/Club-Cena segment from Raw. Not only is Styles the far more intriguing aspect of the feud, and a superior wrestler, but also needs the second consecutive win on Battleground or whenever they're scheduled to face each other.
If you remember, John Cena faced Bray Wyatt for 3 consecutive PPVs in 2014, and won 2 out of 3 of those matches. Basically, it went like:-
WM XXX- John Cena def Bray Wyatt.
Extreme Rules:- Bray Wyatt (with Luke Harper and Erick Rowan) defeated John Cena by escaping the cage
Payback 2014:- John Cena (with Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso) defeated Bray Wyatt (with Luke Harper and Erick Rowan)
A YEAR LATER:-
Fastlane:- Rusev (c) (with Lana) defeated John Cena by knockout
Wrestlemania 31 John Cena defeated Rusev (c) (with Lana)
Extreme Rules:- John Cena (c) defeated Rusev (with Lana) (Russian Chain match)
Payback:-John Cena (c) defeated Rusev (with Lana) (I QUIT MATCH)
KEVIN OWENS FEUD:-
Elimination Chamber 2015:- Kevin Owens def John Cena
MITB 2015:- John Cena defeated Kevin Owens
Battleground 2015:- John Cena (c) defeated Kevin Owens by submission
WHAT'S THE EFFIN POINT WHEN Bray Wyatt, Kevin Owens, and Rusev all won the first match, and then went on to lose the subsequent TWO or in Rusev's case THREE fucking matches? And even Bray Wyatt's victory was tainted, as he escaped from the Cage only because of the Wyatts' interference.
We saw the same thing happen in AJ Styles' match with Cena on MITB. It's gotten beyond sickening by now, and I'm sure most of you have been pretty much desensitized to Cena winning most matches/feuds FOR YEARS, and in case he EVER loses any match(other than to The Rock or Brock Lesnar), it's always a tainted victory for the said opponent(from Bray Wyatt to CM Punk to AJ Styles). Even when Daniel Bryan did beat him at Summerslam, John Cena was like "Oh my shoulder wasn't 100%. But nice job, kid".
My proposal in this thread is- THEY NEED TO BOOK AJ STYLES' feud with Cena differently. Have him BEAT HIM at Battleground, clean or dirty.
And then book Cena to beat him(if he even needs it) in their third/final match(if it happens). Make it seem like it's John Cena who needs the win, not AJ Styles. That way, Styles' character can still be cocky and claim "I beat Cena twice" , even if he loses the final match of the feud.
If they book it like
AJ def Cena.
Cena def AJ
AJ def Cena
It doesn't look good for Styles. It's like the same old "trading wins" crap and deprives the character/future of AJ Styles the credibility and momentum it needs by beating Cena twice in a row.
AJ Styles is the one who has any sort of interesting element in this feud or otherwise. The guy is not only a better wrestler than Cena, but is the FUTURE for WWE and wrestling. And he's consistently proven to me that he's pretty good on the mic and as a character. He needs to win the next match.
The End.
