Edge has carried John Cena for the better part of this year. The TLC Match at Unforgiven was ALL Edge. Everything awesome in that match was in part due to Edge. Cena did take one interesting bump in the match, but it was nothing too grand. We've see Matt, Jeff, Edge, Christian, Bubba and D-Von do that in their sleep.
He still agitates me for the mere fact he's WWE Champion, again. The guy should be Intercontinental Champion, at best. He hasn't shown off his actual wrestling skills in some time, and unless he gets practice, he's eventually going to turn himself into Hacksaw Jim Duggan. The problem with putting him against good wrestlers is that they are more deserving of the WWE Title than he is. This is where the problem lies. You can't have Cena get that much needed development he needs facing duds, but if you stick him in the ring with a guy who's good, the fans flock to the good guy's side.
Apparently one World Title will be on the line at Cyber Sunday. I would have it be the WWE Championship, and have King Booker win it. Have a WWE World Heavyweight Champion and an ECW World Heavyweight Champion.
Triple H can then feud with King Booker over who really is the "King of Kings", while Shawn Michaels and Edge square-off, as Randy Orton steps in to face John Cena, over who really is the future of the company. Have Batista added to the World Title program, simply because SmackDown! should be able to name a challenger at Survivor Series, as well, and you have yourself three main event matches set. Four if you count the logical ECW Originals vs. New Breed Match.
John Cena isn't a draw, his matches aren't great, and he's still got a lot to learn. They shouldn't force him down our throats until both he and we are ready.
