The problem with Cena is that the man will not put anyone else over and when you're obviously being scripted to never lose fairly, of course people get tired of it.
I think Cena has a great "it" factor and definitely embodies what WWE superstars have over the decades, however, he just makes a fucking mockery of himself by winning every match (even when he loses, he 'wins' because he was screwed over)
Thats not his decision though.
Cena is at that crossroads that EVERY major 'face of the franchise' superstar goes through, hatred. Happens(ed) to everyone. Rock, Stone Cold, etc...
The question is, what does he do to break out of that to become more loved than ever. I think he needs to re-imagine his character, something fresh. If he can successfully do that, he will be on top again. I think he should take a year to really become 'bad', attack people back stage, interrupt other matches, screw people over, cause 'injuries', not wear all BRIGHT GREEN shit... and in a year or so, he can align himself with a major figure and be the 'here/good guy' again.
Only problem is, WWE makes way to much money of his merchandise to allow him to take a route like that.
I was away from watching Cena when he first hit the scene with the whole 'hip hop image' but from what I can tell, he because a HUGE Superstar and fan favorite very fast. He is obviously different now, question is what does he change to become 'that guy' again
