Am I the only one who regrets hating this guy? Looking back now, I appreciate him so muchI was a kid in the Attitude Era, teenager in the RE era then an adult when super cena came. I hated WWE for shoving him down our throats every night. I hated the super cena gimmick, thought the promos were cringe and the matches predictable. Probably doesn’t mean much to a bunch of people on Reddit, but I was so wrong. I miss this guy and wish we could have prime Cena back today. Part time Roman is stale. The bloodline storyline isn’t the same after Sami. And I get he has Leukemia and wants to spend more time with his kids. I understand these people have “normal people” lives they want to focus on, I just believe the title is held hostage because of it. I know the IWC loves him and he’s great in-ring, but I think Rollins mic work stinks and he only works as a heel. He seems like a tweener now. It’s nice to have a fighting champion but there just isn’t much of a storyline behind any of his opponents. Gunther is great, just a bit stale with this super long IC title run. Paul, another part timer who we never really see, has the US title. Again, all this just makes me realize I was so wrong for hating Cena 10-15 years ago. The dude showed up every night, would always defend the title, had great storylines, got other guys over and was decent in-ring (that RVD match was great). Anyone else have the same reversal of feelings? I feel like this may be exclusive to people now in their mid 20s - mid 40s.
