Is a tournament arc, not unlike a shonen anime, the way to do this?triple hhh could just have booked Dom vs Cena
>>19186048They are not wasting Cena on your skinnyfat Mexican self insert little faggot midcarder for life
i think the cena cup is kind of a based idea. the whole show is going to revolve around this, or it should. it needs to be a BIG deal
>>19186048Dom is the SvS opponent
>>19186048What a waste of time.
>>19186048>or even people who don't work hereCOPESISTERS, YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS?
>>19186048Cena has made them billions of dollars and they won't let him pick his last opponent? Wtf?
>>19186048It's gonna be chris jericho
>>19186076so no daniel garcia
>>19186048In shounen anime, the prize for winning the tournament is facing the villain, not the hero.
Why is this a bad thing?
>>19186186Because Cena should be chasing the one title he never won
>>19186220Grand slams mean nothing
is this nigga in shape to wrestle Cena?
>>19186186It's not bad per say but it would have been better as the blow off of a big feud. The fact they didn't plan this shit at all is pathetic.
>>19186186rando tournies to decide big things is what tiny con would do
>>19186175Cena is the villain of wrestling to smarks
>>19186152This line along is undoing the cope that I've already coped with this not happening. My unrealistic expectations are not only back but at an all time high
>>19186048>Competitors from RAW, SmackDown, NXT, or even people who don't work here will be involved.Were finally getting Cena vs based ace Tanahashi.
>>19186048 Copying Tony yet again. Paul is shameless>>19186220You really don't understand wrestling. This anon is an AEW fan
>>19186152>>19186360>>19186435>>19186375
>>19186175john cena will turn heel again by december
>>19186265Real sports presentation
>>19186360>>19186435can he even wrestle? his last mach looked like he could barely move
>>19186667Based Cena putti g that young kid Joe Henry over
Watch the tournament winner get injured leading to another fumble in booking
>>19187048Injuries aren't fumbles but pretty much all of Cena's retirement run has been the shits.
>>19186097it's only 16 people, they have tons of time still to fill on NXT SD and RAW that will not be this, in no way will this dominate the shows. But I agree it should. Should have been like a 64 person, everyone in it, only tournament matches for a month leading up.
>or even people who don't work herechris benoit return?
ON THIS DAY
>>19186152I'm finna cry if this happens
SURPRISE
>>19186152yes I know exactly what it means
>>19186048So it's not gonna be Rock then.
>>19186097>>19187068If it’s only going to be a tournament for the honor of wrestling Cena in his final match, that’s returrded.In the alleged “storytelling” (most cringe overused word in wrestling, but I digress) of the narrative, it’s pretty dumb to emasculate 16 superstars by making them pretend to care about battling in a weeks long tournament simply for the “distinguished honor” (lol) of being John Cena’s final match. Now, if they attach something else to it, like a number one contender’s tag, or a MITB golden ticket or something, then sure. That would make more sense. But it’s still dumb. The final Cena match shouldn’t “mean something.” It shouldn’t be used to advance the story or put somebody over. Just let it be a fun farewell to a great career.The Cena vs. AJ Styles match (and the nostalgic way they did it) should’ve been the final Cena match on Dec 13 but they already fucked that up smdh.
>>19186048the seemingly confirmed entrants to the tournament (at least, going by what was shown in the video package) are>the miz>rusev>solo sikoa>sheamus>dominik mysterio>LA knight>drew mcintyre>penta>carmelo hayes>bronson sneed>guntherthat's 11/16 right therecenAI also said that there will be NXT representation. could be any (or all?) of:>trick williams>oba femi>je'von evans>ethan pagehe said that there would also be "some faces that don't even work here" implying multiple non-WWE wrestlers. realistically this means TNA, at a stretch it could include AAA, noah or independent wrestlers.>joe hendry>mike santana>mr iguana>la parka>edge (contract expired)>jericho (contract expiring)here's your tournament bro
>>19187083clearly Mark Henry
>>19186048The entire heel/retirement run has been an embarrassing failure and there's NO WAY to book it so it ends on a decent note. It can only end in embarrassment for Cena which he deserves. Fuck him and fuck what he did to wrestling. May he rest in boiling piss and shit. KWAB.
>>19186152Cope
>>19186097It should be an official thing and he should come back every year to wrestle the winner of the Cena Cup and it should be treated like a bigger break than winning MitB.
>>19186048>even people who don't work here will be involvedSo it's Joe Hendry.
>>19186667>Joe Hendry explains his planGood for Joe Hendry? Joe Hendry can plan all he wants. He isn't WWE or John Cena. He doesn't even work there
>>19186048I bet Gunther's not even in the tournament
>>19186048>hereNow hold on a second
>Hogan returns to claim glory one final timeHis death is just a work, brother
ngl it's boring asf that these last cena matches have zero build to them, imo they should just give cena smark match ups where they wrestle for thirty minutes to dead crowd like on smackdown
>>19186048>triple hhh could just have booked Dom vs CenaFuck off Rodrigo>>19186076That part lmao
>>19186435>>19186360Why do people always fantasy book this? Do Cena and Tanahashi have any relation or similarities whatsoever? Feels so random to me
>>19187083Obviously worthless wrestlers from TNA or NOAH
>>19188220Mohamed Yone confirmed for Cena's last opponent.
Tournament is lame but they booked themselves into a corner with the limited number of dates left. You can’t book a meaningful final feud with four dates or whatever he has left
>>19186186>not having a storyline for the biggest star you have retiring>not having a plan b since last year when rocketty left>putting a heatless tournament alla tk one month beforeWhy is this a bad thing?
>>19186709>he's never seen a wide receiver dance in the endzone after a touchdownJust say you're retarded, lil bro.
>>19188166>one has been the Ace of Japanese wrestling for the past 20 years>one has been the face of American wrestling for the past 20 yearsTruly baffling
>>19187339Being in Cena's last match is a huge deal and obviously if you beat him you are getting title opportunities, etc. and have also left your mark in history. To not participate due to being insecure is retarded.
