Of course they did. Plenty of times. The most important example was how they neglected to make Hornswoggle a 20-time World Champion. Or giving Colin Delaney the Goldberg push. But did the WWE chop off it's proverbial dick by not taking John Cena's rapper gimmick to the main event?
For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about, John Cena used to come out from 2003 to about 2005 and rap from time to time. He turned his swag on plenty of times, son. He proved plenty of times that no one on the corner had swagger like John. He made the world Crank That Chain Gang. Okay, he didn't, but he was very entertaining in his rapper gimmick. He even released an album. Of course it was horrible, but so is alot of stuff that's popular in music today, *cough*SouljaBoyJonasBrothersHannahMontana*cough*. Anyways, I believe the album went Gold, and it's tracks were occasionally used in movies and other shit. Cena was main-eventing Raw as a thug, and in about '07, he started to 'tone it down'. He went from a rapper to a thug to a marine/soldier. It was believed that it was just for promotion of his Marine film, but he continued this soldier gimmick until about 2008. Then he started to resemble a result of a Hulk Hogan incest scandal. Cena got blander and blander, until he started coming out and giving boring promos and his character got worse and worse. It doesn't mean he's bad on the mic, it just means that the WWE is feeding him stupid material.
Do you think the WWE fucked up by not keeping him with the rapper gimmick?
Personally, I think the WWE fucked itself in the ass with the ***** of destruction when they decided to stop Cena's rapper gimmick. John Cena as a rapper could work. If Soulja Boy can go multi-platinum, then John Cena can. If they got a couple of flashy beats, a good writer, and some guest spots from a couple of mediocre rappers and R & B singers, then they would have a pop culture icon leading their country. He would have to go on shows to promote his album, and I'm not just talking the Conan appearance every 6 months, I'm talking MTV, BET, NBC, CUM. Yeah, big shit. When Cena had his rapper gimmick, he was on shows like 106 & Park. That's a fucking Top 10 Hip Hop and R&B Video Countdown on BET (Black Entertainment Television). That's exposure the WWE just won't get these days.
If Cena had continued the rapper gimmick, he would have not only become a pop culture icon, but he could have helped the WWE's ratings. Wouldn't you watch Raw if instead of Hornswoggle dry-humping HBK's leg, John Cena was berating everyone in sight in the form of hip hop? His "Time Is Now" video on YouTube has like 1,000,000 views. Cena as a rapper creates a pop culture icon, interesting shows, higher ratings, and possibly an overall better product. John Cena vs. Rey Mysterio doesn't seem interesting now, but Rapper John Cena vs. Rey Mysterio sounds cool as fuck.
I think that if WWE continued the Cena rapper gimmick, then he would be a pop culture icon on the rank of Hogan. Hogan was known for being a role model to kids. Austin was known for being a rebel. Cena could have been known for being the rapper.
