Cena's billed weight.....
So after watching Raw this week, I noticed that Cena is being billed at 240 pounds. I find this very hard to believe. Edge is billed at 241 and Heath Slater at 231, thus there is absolutely no way Edge weighs more than Cena and Slater weighs only 9 pounds less....
Long story short, why is WWE lying about Cena's weight or am I grasping at straws? |

Weight and height are not accurate. Cena is like 6'0" or something but he's pretty bulky. They said Jericho is about 220 but that seems accurate.

Cena is shorter than you would think. Edge is taller.

Yeah, what Hanso said. Cena's about 6 feet, maybe 6'1, and Edge is taller.

Yup, and Hornswoggle is actually like 6ft 5, they just use camera angles. Cena's probably in the mid 250s, WWE just bills guys how they want to like XL said. David Otunga is billed as 240, but Skippy was billed at 270 even thought there about the same size

Well if I recall correctly, yes they bill Cena at 240, but he always seems to refer to himself at 250.... As for Edge I'd believe him at 240 because yeah he is really tall, and that can be deceptive for how much someone weighs.
At the same time, Steve Austin was billed at 252 and he's what 6'1 or 6'2"? |

Yeah, but Stone Cold was a big guy.... and John Cena used to be 248 lbs. at least according to video games.

We all know billed weights are bull. You need look no further than the Hardy's (whose billed weights haven't moved) to know that.

Also, The Rock was billed at 275 lbs. I think he was maybe around 250lbs - 260lbs.

This is the way its always been, heights and weights are changed to portray an image that the company wants.
Sports are no different, lineman's weights are raised in highschool to intimidate opponents, and are lessened in the pros to hide their obessity. Cena is probably a legit 6'0 245lbs. |

Yeah Stone Cold was a big guy, so is Cena.... I'd put him around 250 lbs... some of his mass is just freakish, like the arms.
As for Rocky yeah before he had titty surgery cause of the roids I'd believe him at 275... he was massive in the corporation, him and his sideburns... thats 15 lbs right there. |

Christian is 6'1 and was billed as being 5'10 for a while (probably because WWE doesn't want to push him).
I think I remember 123 Kid and and super young Jeff Hardy being billed around 220lbs, which is absolutely ridiculous. |

lol there's no way Batista is 6 foot even. At one stage he was billed at 6'7'', then 6'6'', and most recently 6'5''. Show a bit of respect. He's 6'3'' using the good ol' 2-inch add-on rule.
And to get back to the original question, it's partly due to the outdatedness of billed weights, and height differences (makes a huge difference). Edge was prolly legit 230-240 half a decade ago, but he's so normal now I doubt he's even more than 210, only kept high by his 6'4'' frame. As others have said, what is keeping Cena back is him being only a shade taller than 6 feet and perhaps an outdated billed weight. I'm fairly certain Austin, a legit 6'1' - 6'2'', was legit around 250. I think he actually weighs 245 now, according to JR. |
