Crazy. Posted May 27, 2020 Report Share Posted May 27, 2020 So it's been a couple of years since Cena became a part-time guy and I know many people (on this forum especially ) longed for the day this would happen but it seems it all just quietly happened and no one made a big deal out of it. His last proper match (if you exclude the stuff with The Fiend) was before last year's Royal Rumble and his last singles match was, if I'm not wrong, more than two years ago against Triple H at the Greatest Royal Rumble. So I just wanna know... how have you guys been liking WWE without Cena? I know he isn't technically gone yet but... he basically is for large portions. Is the overall product better/more interesting to you or do you miss him and wish he was there for often? What would you change about his appearances, if anything, if you could? Any "dream matches" involving him and some of the guys on the roster now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EJ! Posted May 27, 2020 Report Share Posted May 27, 2020 Guess I’ma go ahead and be predictable as hell. *Censored* yeah I miss him. I hate that he started having these fire ass matches towards the tail end of his career. His last bangers came during his Undertaker chase when he put Balor over and was in that 6 Man match at Fastlane and that Gauntlet match with Seth. I would like him in a Jericho role at this stage. Obviously he can’t appear as frequently as Jericho but the idea of just putting on bangers and putting people over (in feuds, I don’t mean losing every match). No more facing guys from his era, like stay the *Censored* away from Orton and Brock. I actually would like to see an NXT run for him, that’s where all my dream matches are, at least as far as WWE goes. Outside of WWE, I know it will never happen, but Cena in a G1?

CROSS-Out Posted May 27, 2020 Report Share Posted May 27, 2020 I dont really watch WWae anymore but I'll just say how I feel. I certainly miss the Cena we have had in the last few years... but do I miss the old Cena? The spotlight hogging glory-hound cheesey but not yet self aware Cena? Absolutely not.

BestInTheWorld614 Posted May 27, 2020 Report Share Posted May 27, 2020 I miss relaxed Cena that we got I would say since 2016 after the draft. He just seemed like he was having fun again. Now Top Guy Cena who was doing anything to protect his spot was god awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M3J Posted May 27, 2020 Report Share Posted May 27, 2020 I feel like we could have gotten a better Cena or best out of Cena if WWE allowed more than one top guy. I haven't watched WWE in a long time, but when I did, I didn't miss him too much. I'm assuming now that he's a part-timer, he can put on better matches?

PaperThinWalls Posted May 27, 2020 Report Share Posted May 27, 2020 I miss his elite mic skills and his keen ability to work a crowd, but I don't miss his booking. I like the way he's used now where we get an appearance from him every so often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okada v Cena would be a *censored*ton of fun too. Cena to me became enjoyable after his match with Punk, that seemed to be the change in his untouchable character which kinda worked really well that night to help that match be incredible. He seemed to be totally up for keeping up with Punk and had a ton of awesome matches with him after that and i really appreciated that he decided to put on his worker boots in a more worker centric era that was happening.

The Nerd Posted May 28, 2020 Report Share Posted May 28, 2020 I hate it but I also love it. I hate it because I’m his absence or move to part time, I’ve grown to appreciate him. So now I want him around a little more. But I also love it because it really has shifted the power a little I guess. Meaning, Cena is willing to come back and put people over even more than before. Just never thought we’d see the day of Cena not opening the show, and overcoming 10 on 1 handicaps and etc. *Censored* I love that guy. Such a legend.

X-zero Posted May 28, 2020 Report Share Posted May 28, 2020 Not really even though WWE is worse without him. Since he been gone from a top spot on one brand is Brock just hold one of the World titles for the majority of the time. And the title just fade from memory until around one of the 5 times Brock may defend in a year. And while I think WWE waited too long on Braun. I am happy we got Braun vs. Bray. And are getting Drew vs. Lashley with MVP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AONO. Posted May 28, 2020 Report Share Posted May 28, 2020 Me not really liking WWE atm has nothing to do with Cena really. In fact, if he would appear more, I would definetely like it even less. I still groan everytime I see him on TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miguelnuva Posted June 5, 2020 Report Share Posted June 5, 2020 The end of the Cena Era to me felt like when the orginal power rangers left during Turbo. Yeah you watched because your were invested but it felt like something was missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
