They don't hate the "rapper" gimmick.
They hate that Cena has been made into the "Generic WWE Babyface".
Hell, I hate the "Generic WWE Babyface" mold.
The 5 move usin', damsel-in-distress savin', kick-punch-your-way-to-the-finisher "hero".
Cena has lost his edge.
That's why people BOO him.
Also, because the F-U kind of sucks as a finishing move in its current form, and Cena doesn't work the "brawler" style well. But mostly it's because of the lack of "fire" he used to have. The habitual line-stepping side to his character.
The Rock was losing his in 2001, and with Stone Cold back, that gave people more incentive to boo him. If you think that The Rock was booed at WMX7 because of the home crowd, you're only half right. Fans had been clamoring for The Rock to be less "nice" for months...and it never came. He was still funny, but he lost some of that edge. Rock should have gone heel when he came back during the Invasion... because a heel Rock >>>>>>> "heel" Stone Cold (if they really wanted Stone Cold's heel turn to work, they should have made him act like a "generic WWE babyface" ala Kurt Angle when he first came out).
