Sure he can say it's his worst year ever but he's not undergone an inch of actual character development.

Cena is written in a similar way to Pete from The League. There's a group of friends who are huge dicks but they all have horrible things happen to them and through suffering you kind of root for them the way you'd get behind Larry David. Then you have Pete who is probably the biggest dick who rarely gets his comeuppance and even then whenever a bad thing happens to him he's upset for two minutes then suddenly he just doesnt care at all and is back to being a massive piece of shit. So why would you care that a bad thing happens to Pete? Fuck Pete.
You forgot the whole Edge having to give Cena a talk about needing to regain his confidence back. After Brock beat the shit out of him over and over.
