Factotum Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 It would be great if they played into that when he comes back. They wont, but would certainly add something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members tiger_rick Posted September 24, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted September 24, 2018 It's not the way they work and would make zero sense. In recent years they've had Undertaker (53), Triple H (49), Kane (51), Big Show (46) and Mark Henry (47) on TV or PPV in matches where they sell them the same as ever. The monster. The world's largest athlete. The world's strongest man. The cerebral assasin. Etc, etc. They don't acknowledge that these guys have aged. Cena is only 41. He's the same age as Brock Lesnar. Only a bit older than Randy Orton. I know he looks like he's having a mid-life crisis but he's a long way short. I've joked that he looks like Dave Meltzer these days but he's looking a damn sight better for 41 than Hogan, Savage, Flair, etc did. He's no HHH but who is?

Factotum Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Not like he's broken down or anything, but at least a story where maybe he has to tap into something he's never had to before. As I mentioned earlier, I thought they were going to do that after the Lesnar match where he got battered, but instead you had one promo mentioning it and then he wrestled exactly the same way. Its only spit balling, I would just like to see something slightly different from Cena when he returns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awards Moderator Onyx2 Posted September 24, 2018 Awards Moderator Share Posted September 24, 2018 Both feuds with Reigns and Wyatt were feuds were Cena would have to dig into something to win. With Reigns him discarding his merch should definitely have gone somewhere - nope. With Bray the "whole world in his hands" should've allowed creative freedom to pull something different off - nope. Both carried on as usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Nexus was a great opportunity and they did very little with it and have never really done so since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
