Waiting for Superman Cena

[Swiss Ultimate]

I have not been watching regularly and I admit that I don't see this changing between now and Wrestlemania, but what little I pick up and see baffles me greatly.

The impression I get from you guys and from watching is that Cena's main demographic is made up of young children and women. He gained these fans by transforming himself from a fake-rapper to a unbeatable squeaky clean superman.

Yet every time I see Cena he's getting the shit kicked out of him, barely surviving and kind of depressing. Even the WWE website is pushing him as someone on the verge of breaking. My question is simple...why?

Do Cena's fans want to see him struggle? I would say not.

Does getting beat up by guys like Kane and Mark Henry (whom the Rock defeated with ease back in the 90s) make anyone who doesn't already want to want to watch him fight the Rock?

I think that the WWE in an attempt to give Cena depth and humanize him have made a huge mistake in regards to the people who actually like him and for the fans who wanted to see him face the Rock at Wrestlemania. Nobody wants to see a titan like the Rock beat or lose to a guy who has been struggling for what seems like the last year or more.

The WWE should be building Cena up as unstoppable with only the likes of the Rock capable of putting him down. The boos aren't just getting louder because Cena is "stale", they're getting louder because he's not playing to his fans. This Rise Above the Hate campaign is great and all, but can't Cena rise above the hate and beat up all the bullies and monsters at the same time? Where's no-selling Super Cena? Wouldn't it be effective for the audience to see Cena go a year without losing to anyone and no-selling the shit out of a bunch of mid-carders and the occasional "main-eventer" and then getting leveled by The Rock? Isn't the focus of Wrestlemania this year supposed to be two iconic figures facing off in a battle for the ages?
