This certainly was the case a few years ago, but I think the WWE have now realized that Cena doesn't necessarily need to be in the "#1 main-event slot" in order for him to still be the company's biggest draw.
Cases in point: CM Punk from 2011-2012, Daniel Bryan from last year, and Roman Reigns of this year.
And again - a few years ago, before 2012, the WWE was purely PG. As the WWE has shifted away from the PG era now, perhaps a new guy can legitimately take over Cena's spot as the #1 guy.
CM Punk wasn't the guy. Management doesn't want Bryan, while the fans seemingly don't want Reigns. Could this be Orton's time to 'burn in the light'? (see what I did there?
).
