Cena can't go heel until they have somebody viable enough to fill the "Ultra Pure Force of Good" role.

WWE has played this Cena-tweener walking the line shit for too long now. They need to go one way or another, and it will be good for business either way. They turn him heel and he goes back to being a cocky, loud-mouthed trash-talker like he was in his "rapper gimmick", and this will actually turn him into a FACE. He'll become "cool" again and people will fucking cheer him (like they cheered CM Punk during his run against Cena in the summer). He'll become the anti-hero. Yeah, maybe he'll lose some of his kiddy and female fans who won't "get it," but his gain in adult male fans will totally make up for it. OR, he turns into a total asshole, "I am the WWE", corporate jerk off type of heel, who EVERYONE hates, and gives the WWE the biggest heel in the industry since Hollywood Hulk Hogan. And since he's been built up so ridiculously strongly over the past 8 years, any babyface who goes up against him will automatically be the underdog, which makes for interesting storytelling. |

I generally stay out of this debate because I can see merit in both arguments for and against why Cena should turn heel. Do I think he should? Yes. I don't think it needs to be done right now, but in saying that it should be done sooner rather than later.
I think we can all agree his character has grown stale, but if they're going to do it, it should be be done with reason and surprisingly. When Hogan turned heel in the 90's nobody saw it coming and I think that's how it should be with Cena. No build to it, shock us. |

I really don't think that Cena is stale right now at all. We can all sit here and talk about how he was forced down our throats for so long, and for so long, people have felt that the solution was just to turn him heel. However, the crowd reactions are making moments that nobody else can make, and he's never been better between the ropes. He is more intriguing now than he's ever been, and I feel like the longer they leave him teetering on the brink, the better off everything will be.
I understand that the current state of affairs probably wasn't the intentional design of his progression, but it at least now shows that they're aware of it and they're at least ACKNOWLEDGING it. It's really the most interesting thing on the show to me right now. |

He has been a lot more interesting since just before Money in the Bank, before that his promos were awful jokes for the first 2 weeks of build-up and then 2 weeks of being so mad he literally shakes while shouting. Then the PPV match happened and just gets beaten down for the entire match until he makes his comeback.
He's a lot more fun now, but I don't know if I was so sleepy I was angry, but the segment with Piper somehow managed to suck. |

The Piper segment sparked this whole "are the boo's getting to Cena?" storyline. I liked it

The only problem was Cena was getting more cheers than boo's on this particular night

Cena isn't going to turn heel and this thread is more IWC masturbation.

They need to give cena magic powers. Maybe he could spend a week with papa shango and learn the art of the black goo.

i didn't think it was that bad a segment. cena nailed his schtick, and piper had to end with a bang somehow.

And whenever he's not onscreen, all the other characters should be asking, "Where's Cena?"

So once he turns heel, Cena will end up doing a 360 by saying "I have to go now, my planet needs me" (which mayor may not be dubbed in my McMahon), float into the air, and come back a hero once again with no mention of the heel turn.
