Kingofdaswing does not have that much rep yet (10+)
No he is definitely not in the top 4. Not even close, it's just the standard the "fans" have today are so small. Not too mention, the wrestling audience is at, or close too all time lows, along with attendance. I'll list 8, and you can tell me how Cena should rank above any of them.

1. Hogan
2. Sammartino
3. Austin
4. Flair
5. Rock
6. Hart
7. Michaels
8. HHH

Hell, I didn't even mention guys like Lou Thesz, Andre, Buddy Rogers, Inoki and the list can really go on and on.

Like I said, please tell me how you can possibly put a guy who can't even do a proper drop kick ahead of any of the above mentioned names.

I probably should have been more clear in my post.

My rankings isn't based on a 1:1 correlation with wrestling ability.

It's simply based on star power.

For example - Flair was a better wrestler than The Rock, but I don't think anyone can debate that Flair was ever a bigger superstar than The Rock.

What does that have to do with a bigger star.

But even so, I don't remember Andre exactly having a stellar dropkick...

Andre also knew he didn't have a stellar drop kick, and never tried one in his career.

Cena can work a solid match when he wants too, so could Hogan, but neither of those guys has to take ridiculous bumps or work 60 minute Iron Man matches night in night out to garner a reaction so why would they? The majority of Hogans matches are terrible second time around, IMO, but there's a reason he made millions doing his 5 moves of doom and ROH doesn't.
