Originally posted by -Pr-Hmmm, well i look at it as this way. If Cena wins, it's the usual good guy over the bad guy which happens all the time. If Cena loses, it's via the usual cheap tricks the heel does to pin the good guy. If he loses cleanly like against Bryan and AJ at Summerslam...then he loses cleanly. Truthfully one really can't fault anyone for having this feeling against Cena at this point. It does appear like same old sh!t, but it really isn't anymore.
You don't think that the matches, even when they're good, are brought down when you expect one guy to win constantly?I mean, I enjoyed Cena's US open challenge, but I know I would have enjoyed it a lot more if I thought that anyone facing him would have had a chance at actually beating him.
You say we're past it, but now we have Reigns instead of Cena doing the exact same thing, and lets be fair, Reigns isn't half the wrestler or talker that Cena is. He can put on good matches, but he's not in that class.
Well, it was a double edged sword with the US open challenge. It did bring great legitimate attention to the US belt. But anyone who followed that format was bound to win a lot of times and since of all people it was Cena who held it...yeah. Of course one could argue that the belt could have just been handed over and it's new owner could have continued something similar. But in the eyes of the company, it would have defeated the original purpose of Cena holding the belt because a huge reason why Cena was given the belt in the first place was to give it some attention and legitimacy.
I really have no words for Reigns at this point tbh 😕
