How do you feel about Cena?

[Destor]

If you still look back and think youre right about them needing to turn him you dont know shit about shit. Cena merch money is the only thing that kept them going amd to throw that way so the cool kids would like him (lol @ turning him heel so people would like him btw) is moronic and is a fine example as to why youre better off watching from your couch.

And you honestly think in the 2000's they were so bad off in terms of money just after the boom of the attitude era that cena's merchandise money is the only thing that kept them going? I think you'll find financially they were very well off after the attitude era, they also went public with shares which also helped bolster the company. This wasn't the down period where they were actually taking bottled water dispensers out of titan towers to save money, this was after the period that legitimately made Vince a billionaire so i don't know where you're pulling this "merch money floated the company" bollocks from.

Think you need to look into the mirror to see someone who "doesn't know shit about shit". But feel free to believe whatever fairy tale you come up with next.

YOU COULD argue a heel turn could have given Cena a little more colour and when he turned face again he coulda sold more merch.

But realistically whether he turned or not would have made no difference. Not like there was any heir apparent ready to be #1 face...or at least anyone they had earmarked other than maybe Lashley and that never would have worked.
