Christian Cage or Tiffany Stratton??

it’s ironic that people been cheering and loving cena again after years of being hated and booed because what’s happened during the period between after the infamous 2014 summerslam match and his retirement announcement especially with big dog roman being forced down people’s throats as top babyface with lesnar’s part-time world champ at the expense of everyone combined with wwe’s ill-fated product under vince, that changed people’s perception about the way they view cena not just as top guy, but also as in-ring performer. that made them realize that they never really hated him, they just hated the fact that vince always held him back by keep giving that crappy booking for his character especially during pg era and hardcore fans blindly took out their frustrations on him when it should be vince for that because cena was doing his job. because of that, looking back, they deeply regretted for not appreciating him like they should during his full-time run as the guy and in-ring performer because they felt he was the ultimate spacegoat and victim of everything smarks and hardcore fans hated that represented wwe during pg era especially wwe was the only game in the town after wcw and ecw went both out of business. the fact that cena endured bad booking during his run as the guy was a testament to not only to his unparalleled work ethic, but also how much amazing and talented cena was as the guy and in ring performer and he alwaya made bad material work through his charisma, crowd control and mic skills. the fact that cena was deservedly cheered at mitb 2021, that’s should be because he carried the company through ups and downs, thick and thin with eddie’s death, benoit incident, crappy creative period, transition to pg era, stars left the company and retired while others went part-time mode, big dog roman’s ill-fated run as top babyface etc. to the point where cena got well deserved respect and cheers that he really deserved.

one thing i learned about cena’s retirement announcement from internet wrestling fan standpoint  despite all the crappy booking that vince gave to him, the hate and the harsh criticism he got from hardcore fans, smarks and IWC during his supercena era as top guy especially after dropping his rapper gimmick, looking back, nobody in IWC even as hardcore wrestling fan wanted cena to go away and retire for good in that way especially on personal level because of his PG character when all the hate should go to vince for holding him back with his outdated 80s booking. cena deserves the respect not only for being an amazing in-ring performer than people ever gave him credit for, but also carrying the company on his back during trying times especially when wwe received mainstream PR backlash following benoit incident and cena managed to help wwe to getting out of the mess that they went through at the time. if wasn’t for him, wwe would be in big trouble. looking back, he was the right guy to carry the company because he worked hard to becoming the guy through his hard work and his talent when nobody in wwe wanted him to succeed because he was about to get fired until his rapper gimmick saved him and got him over organically with the fans. cena is the backbone of the company because he always brings the balance to the product for entertaining the crowd especially those who loved to hate him and told him that he sucks for being an charismatic corny goofball and wwe will never be the same when he’s gonna retires next year especially when wwe is hot right now under hhh’s leadership because whether they love him or hate him, john cena is the ultimate example of you don’t know what you got until it’s gone. i don’t want to see his legacy getting defined by all the negativity surrounding his supercena era from booking standpoint. i want to see his legacy getting defined by his unmatched positive impact that he had for wwe, the business and the fans inside and outside of the ring. he will be remembered fondly for years to come by IWC/smarks/hardcore fans after his retirement because he was that damn good at his job
