Why are you singling out Cena in that example when it reads as though everyone on the roster was saying the same thing?

Cena wins all the time because he's money. That's the WWE formula, it's how the show is run. I've had my own share of frustration with it, but it's not the wrestler's fault. My impression of Cena is that he's one of the most selfless, least political headliners they've ever had, but that doesn't change their booking style.

Notice how wrestlers backstage spoke out about not being happy with Jericho coming back because he "takes the spotlight from another wrestler".But yet Cena gets the most spotlight time out of the year but say nothing.Because if they speak out,they get buried and eventually the boot as well.

Kenne Doane (Kenny from the spirit squad) spoke out against John Cena.

Tyler Reks does too

And Michael Tarver.

And Chavo Guerrero

You don't think a guy in such a high position doesn't have control over his booking?Of course he does.All the big stars have control.Austin,Triple H,The Rock,Hogan etc etc.

Cena hears the boos he gets,he knows the majority of the crowed is against him yet does nothing.I don't deny what he has done for the company,he's worked his ass off to get where he is.But that doesn't excuse him acting like a dick backstage.

Because they know Cena's putting more butts in seats than Jericho ever has. And I prefer Jericho to Cena.

I'm sure he does have clout, but you're talking about an abuse of power which is something very different.

Some fans dislike him - in some towns more than others - while others in the crowd join in the booing because it's funny/cool. Notice that the loudest reaction when Cena arrives is the initial pop of genuine excitement, before half the crowd remembers they're not supposed to like him and start booing...

yet does nothing.

What do you expect him to do exactly?

I must admit I haven't bothered reading the links you posted, partly because I'm posting on my phone, partly because I'm lazy, but mostly because we'll never know how much bitterness and attention seeking is behind the more controversial claims made by ex-WWE jobbers.

There's a pretty big difference though between a guy busting his ass working every day, all year for the spotlight, and a guy that's decided to show up again just in time for a big Mania cheque.

[Samanosuke Akechi]

Lots of talk going around about starting a feud with Taker and Lesnar.Only thing holding them back is lesnars physical style against an aging and battered Taker.

In Y2Js case he will come back and put people over. And i dare say the ones complaing dont get on the PPVs anyways right now. But i do have an issue with The Rocks return and he should not have the belt.

[Let's Get Sweaty]

Why shouldn't he? The belt is a prop to tell stories, and Rock winning the belt and Cena winning the Rumble gives them a get-out clause for the 'Once in a Lifetime' label on last year's match. Now they're on a convenient collision course for Cena to get his win back without deliberately breaking a promise (which of course they are - but the story makes it look like it's happened organically instead of just a rematch for its own sake).

[Who Really Cares?]

Why should a guy whos been gone for 10 years get the belt? Just so he can have the rematch everyone knew would happen before last years match had even taken place. Why not simply have him face someone else who needs putting over?


And screw breaking a promise as WWE have been doing that since it was the WWWF.

[Yokosuka Martian]

It's good for business. While I prefer Punk to have the belt, I understand why they gave it to Rock. It's not like The Rock needed the money when he came back to the WWE. He's done perfectly fine with the movie's he's made. I do thin he's done it because he cares about the business that made him. With him holding the belt, the 'E thinks it will gain them more viewers. Since he will be going on talk shows n etc. to promote his movies, he'll have the belt with him and he can mention the WWE in the process.

[Let's Get Sweaty]

I'd like to see Rock face other people too - he just had a great match with CM Punk five days ago. But you don't fuck with WrestleMania. There are only two possible matches with the current roster that could generate a bigger PPV buyrate than Rock/Cena 2: Rock vs Brock (movie star vs UFC champ) and Cena vs Taker. The latter was never gonna happen this year, and the former would generate just as much whining from certain circles due them both being part-timers.

[Who Really Cares?]

In Brocks case people know his health issues are 1 of the reasons his not on every week and his a bigger draw than Cena. Takers body probably cant take a match with Brock but he could with Cena and an I Quit match would set it up perfectly. And Brock vs Orton would be better than (another) rematch with HHH.

Rock? As i said they could have used him to build up someone whos all but a main eventer already.

[Samanosuke Akechi]

Brock signed a 2 contract. Hope to see a match with him and rock happen.

Wasn't a fan of punk at first but damn he cuts good promos.

Hmmm, I dunno if Brock could have a good match with himself, but it'd be fun to watch him try this.
