You are absolutely right here. It has been a bad era. But that isn't his fault. That's the Era of PG booking. Things were already going downhill before he became the draw. It should say something for him that when shit gets bad they pretty much fall back on Cena as the only hope to salvage things. Because no one else other than part time special attractions from a more popular Era can do it for them. Every time Cena goes on hiatus it seems like there is a legit downturn in the ratings and the quality of the whole product. That's why they hype him up so hard imo...they know he is the only real star they have that people will buy into.

I often wonder how well Cena would have drawn in the attitude Era when he wouldn't have been held back or dumbed down. And even though it is pure conjecture....I think he would have legit been the biggest thing in wrestling history. He can pull groups of people in that none of the others could have. Young people would have flocked to him. He would have run circles around everyone other than the rock promo wise. He was better in ring than SCSA or The Rock or HHH. He is a legit total package, a true star, and he has been held back to protect Linda McMahon political career.
