John Cena officially lost his luster with me during his subpar feud with Booker T over the US Title. I believe Cena lost the title just to win it back, which was pretty ridiculous. Cena's ring work really came into question here (those two just didn't click), and it was a breath of fresh air when Carlito win the US Title from him. But then Cena won it back and made it spin.
I still believe that JBL should have retained the WWE Title at WrestleMania 21. They literally moved Cena from mid-card to main event level, and just said "he's the WWE Champion now." A better build could have favoured Cena more.
