This is never going to change for the most part, except for when he's working with a world class legit superstar heel ala Brock Lesnar or a Vickie Guerrero-esque heat magnet and even then you'll still find bits
If they're not trying to get the fans behind him so that everybody buys his merchandise, what are they trying to do???

Cena winning and his promo at the end were awesome. He can go away now and still have that aura of "I lost to Rock... but I happened to beat the legit fighter in a street fight."

The more this Cena stuff is playing out, the more I'm liking what they're doing. As that match went on, it just seemed uncool to boo Cena. Like... he's taking an ass whopping and bleeding like no one has done in years. What exactly are you dipshits booing? They're on the right path to endearing Cena to everyone and I like it.

The match was crazy. And followed two other ridiculously good matches. I really hope they can keep this up and put on stellar PPV cards consistently.
This is where I feel they're going.

But yeah, sounds like an amazing PPV. Cena looks fucking good by winning, which is something a win for him has not done in a long time. In some ways, Cena needed to win here, it's just because it was Lesnar that we got fooled. Also, I think there's a least some of it in not letting Brock win his first WWE match because he didn't win his first UFC fight. It's the same reason TNA shouldn't put their World Heavyweight Title on people from the WWE who just waltz into their company. Intriguing decision, and all-round a really solid PPV.

The only thing I would have changed would have been to replace a Ryback squash with an Antonio Cesaro one. Not because I like Cesaro more than Ryback, but because I think it would have suited the PPV more. They could have played it off as Cesaro impressing Laurinaitis on SmackDown! and being given the shot, while the apparently babyface yet child-murdering Ryback continues to work his way up, perhaps making more RAW appearances.
I would not mind a Brock Lesnar PATH OF RAGE!
