Saul Goode posted:I didn't say he was a bad worker. Cena is a pretty decent worker who is absolutely appalling at almost every other aspect of being a wrestler, which makes him overall a lovely wrestler. If anyone made anyone, Cena made Umaga, Edge and Punk. Feuding with and beating Cena elevated all three to main event status. Memorable promos? He did a fantastic one the night Jerry Lawler had his heart attack that I remember despite it happening the night Jerry Lawler had a heart attack. That was less than two months ago. As for the rest, that's the way the guy is booked. Hard to blame someone when the company wants him to be a certain character and not show weakness.

Cena's promos in the last however many years and especially the last year or so are a blur of paint by numbers "RESPECT! I DO THIS FOR THE WWE UNIVERSE!" shouty promos mixed with Cena being insufferably smug. The only one that really stands out is the "go puck yourself" promo against Laurinaitis and that's only because of how awful it was especially coming like an hour after Laurinaitis humiliating and firing Big Show and Cena coming out to be Goofy Joke Man instead of coming out earlier to try and help his supposed friend.

Cena can cut a decent promo but he'd be even better if they'd just go back to booking him as a tweener who usually does the right thing instead of making him not just a babyface, but THE babyface, a shining moral light who can do no wrong. Like, he's perfectly able to be a big doofy guy who's main priority is doing good by his friends, which can sometimes lead to him on the wrong side of fights but all in all a pretty good dude. That's what he was for a good few years, the biggest problem he has is booking and despite what some people seem to think he really can't do a ton about that.

Cena's promos during the first Punk feud helped sell the thing. He was the perfect foil to elevate Punk.

The greatest thing Lashley ever did was feud with Simon Dean. I desperately want that feud to be recreated with Ryback so he can eat the platter of burgers rather than ominously glaring at it.

It's a regular Ryback match, but after the Shellshock, Ryback lays down and pulls his opponent over him, then just goes face first into the plate of burgers and starts eating.
