Cena has improved a lot over the years.
Personally I think the booking of this angle with Orton is great as he’s going down more of a psycho route where he doesn’t care about authority, but it’s justified, he attacked Coach because of what he allowed to happen to his Father, he did it with the knowledge he would lose the title and just went with his emotions.
I know it’s re-hashing Austin/McMahon again, but he’s an ok actor and I’m digging this feud, Orton is playing the perfect prick to Cena’s hero right now.
What ruined him in the eyes of the smarks was the poop jokes, it’s the same thing that could happen to HHH if he keeps going down the same route, that’s not his fault. But to be fair, He stopped being comedy Cena a few months back, probably from the Lashley feud onwards
As for his matches, by no means classic and his selling at times is questionable, he’s more than capable of giving us passable matches each night, he’s never going to be having 5 star classics all the time, but to be fair, not many of the guys they pic to be champion, can or do. It’s more about the drawing power, pure wrestlers don’t draw and getting the mix is hard.
Angle had it, Bret Had it, but neither of them were as big a draw as Cena IMO, the guys who are considered to be in the same overall bracket are guys like Rocky, now are the time everyone was saying what a shit wrestler he was, because he had 5 moves of doom and that’s it, but he did alright for himself in the end.
