Mr.Dreadful Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 According to Sportsdeeda, John Cena proposing to Nikki Bella at WrestleMania 33 drastically changed original plans for the PPV. As we noted several months before WrestleMania 33, the plan in WWE was to have John Cena vs The Undertaker take place at ‘Mania in Orlando, however that match ended up being scrapped in favor of Nikki Bella and John Cena vs The Miz and Maryse, and The Undertaker vs Roman Reigns. The idea for Cena to propose to Nikki Bella actually came from WWE Exec Kevin Dunn, who pitched it to Vince McMahon. McMahon then spent several weeks pitching the idea to Cena, and it’s being said Cena was originally not a fan of the idea. When Cena finally agreed to do the proposal, he was given a brief WWE Title run which ended when Bray Wyatt won the Title at WWE Elimination Chamber. Initial Royal Rumble plans called for AJ Styles to drop the title to The Undertaker, who would then drop the title back to Styles at Elimination Chamber. Cena was originally supposed to eliminate The Dead Man from the chamber match, setting up their WrestleMania 33 bout. http://www.wrestlingattitude.com/2017/04/backstage-news-on-how-john-cenas.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Counting Lights Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 Well, if this is true, then holy shit we missed out on some really epic potential matches...and it makes me hate Kevin Dunn that much more. THAT SAID, it could be complete lies, with Dunn's name thrown in to get more hate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EJ! Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 I can imagine Dunn raising his hand after the original idea was pitched like "How about instead of doing that, we do nothing like that whatsoever? AND...and hear me out...we pressure Cena into making a personal life decision?" and of course Vince likes *censored*ing around with people's personal lives so he agreed.

Future™ Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 y'all complaining about matches we should've got but I just lol'd at the fact that Cena declined the idea of him proposing his own girlfriend but did it in the end anyways. How is Nikki fine with this lmao Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy. Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 So lemme' get this straight... we missed out on all of that epic shit and had to endure the sight of Reigns' ending 'Taker's career... all for that *censored*ing retarded proposal? Kevin Dunn, welcome to your tape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEGION Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 I had zero interest in post streak Taker vs Cena. Glad it didn't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeM Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 y'all complaining about matches we should've got but I just lol'd at the fact that Cena declined the idea of him proposing his own girlfriend but did it in the end anyways. How is Nikki fine with this lmao Yeah that was the funniest thing, Although I'd like to believe that Cena was truthful at Mania when he told her he'd marry her one day - he was pretty notorious around that time for not wanting to remarry. So they also basically gave Cena the title as an ego favour for proposing on TV? Man did AJ choose the wrong time to have the title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bushy. Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 I was fine with the enjoyable build to Cena/Nikki vs Miz/Maryse, but the match wasn't worth it. Neither was that terrible, depressing ass Taker match. I'd trade all that for the original plans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muur Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 Lmao at the title run being why he proposed. Also means I was probably right about it being kayfabe. Also Cena and Taker should've stood their ground about fighting each other Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lightning116 Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 We would've gotten John Cena and The Undertaker. We would've gotten the one marquee match that WWE did not book......yet. Sure Taker didn't have the streak anymore but hell, fans would've loved to see Cena vs Taker. And because of this beaver looking bitch, we got their precious Cinderella/P.R. moment for Total Divas/Total Bellas while Roman Reigns beats Taker and WWE refuses to read the space between their ears by not turning him heel when they had the chance. The sooner Kevin Dunn is outta here, hopefully the better the product might get. Oh yeah and apparently, Shinsuke Nakamura was gonna be Daniel Bryan's opponent of choice for The Miz at WrestleMania 33 as well. Think about that.

maskedmaniac Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 Cena could have still proposed to Nikki, the following night on RAW after he retired the Undertaker. Hell if I was Cena I'd have chosen the Taker match over proposing to Nikki, he could always propose some other day but that was Takers final match!

I think the 16th title run was more important to him, seems that's what convinced him to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeM Posted April 24, 2017 Report Share Posted April 24, 2017 To be honest, Cena retiring Undertaker would have only slightly been more palatable. Still another of the "chosen ones". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willows Way Posted April 24, 2017 Report Share Posted April 24, 2017 Id take that over Roman. At least Cena imo has done enough to earn it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
