Have them win when they get there! Or have them lose in a competitive match to signify they're at least a step away from being capable of taking him down! Again, you're stuck on this Ziggler thing after I already said Ziggler beating him would have been a fine start to something.

I'm saying his losses should be meaningful and therefore not just done to the point where beating Cena is commonplace. Ziggler in the cage would have been a big deal assuming they could keep the momentum going. Del Rio on a soon to be forgotten episode of Raw, not so much. Save it for a moment where the commentators don't have to ACT like it's actually a big deal that Cena just got beat.

"soon to be forgotten"
so what does it matter either way? |

Please see if this is missing any of his clean PPV losses since WrestleMania 21:

2008 was a shitty year for Cena. Way worse than 2012.

You bitch about how the titles look weak, how they don't book consistently when building guys up, and when someone pitches ideas that would fix that you bitch about how it wouldn't matter anyway

When you actually pitch an idea that would fix it, we can discuss that.

Like... say... writing intriguing angles around the title and having the champion look strong to the point where beating him and winning it is a huge deal. I know that's probably more than you can handle since it contains more than the simplistic "beat Cena" that means less and less but it might actually be more useful. Just a thought.

I'm not saying job Cena out like Len Wagner. I'm just saying when they do actually build a guy up to the point where he faces Cena (see: Ziggler, Ryback, Wade Barrett, etc.) they should actually pull the trigger and put them over instead of just having them win by hijinx or just flat out job out to Cena. Of course good booking is important, but you are completely missing the point like the dense willfully-ignorant shithead you are.

How can you be so fucking dumb to think that I'm saying "Job Cena out to ___ on RAW. He'll be a superstar instantly!"?

Fuck this whole Ryback shit is awful.
Does anybody remember when Lesnar debuted? People would chant "boring" and "Goldberg" during his matches. He had a match against Test at a ppv people shit all over it. He got over because he kept kicking peoples ass and winning. That's what needs to be done to establish a top star. Ryback should have just kept mowing through guys for a long time until he reached a point where he could challenge the World Title with the intention of winning. Or hell, keep him on Smackdown and win their belt, while avoiding Cena/Punk altogether. |

Outside of that, you've kept arguing Dolph Ziggler in the cage at the end of an actual rivalry which I've agreed about 3 times already would have been a fine idea. I'm agreeing with the point and you're blindly keeping it as a point to bitch about. "Willfully-ignorant shithead". |

Still "lol" over the fact that Cena, Ryback, Sheamus, Kane, Daniel Bryan, Orton all couldn't beat the Shield, but the Usos did.

It's not even a start, you tool. Hell, ADR would probably be better served being a bitchy heel about the loss than he would being the latest guy to get a "shocking" win over the champ that's just gonna water the effect of that "accomplishment" down more.

The Shield had to lose eventually, but they did pick a weird team to do it with.

ADR put up a good fight and he lost to the top guy in the company. That's pretty much what should have happened.

Making the World Champion look like a bitch rather than an equal to the WWE Champion is a better idea than having Cena lose on RAW? John Cena could lose to Zack Ryder tomorrow and it wouldn't water down the accomplishment. He is on a pedestal like nobody since the Hogan and Bruno eras.

FFS, they already had interference and shit in the match. Would it have really hurt Cena to have ADR grab the jorts to pin him or something? Or would that forever tarnish the accomplishment of beating John Cena too? We have to protect him to the point that half the fanbase hates him. That must be good for business. Buyrates and live gates are up because we've been building up John Cena for 8 years and he still needs to be built up some more by going over people.

It would have hurt the effect that beating Cena does for people. The man loses often.
And lol @ Del Rio looking like a bitch. What match were you watching??? |

I don't see how Cena loses too much already. I've already shown he only has 6 true clean losses in 8 years. That is fucking ridiculous in 2013 especially considering how much WWE is hurting for "new stars" for the better part of those 8 years.

I'm pretty sure he's lost cleanly in televised matches too, by the way. In fact, he lost clean to The Great Khali on free I think. HBK, too. Those are just off the top of my head.
I'm saying losing period though. He does it often. It loses it's luster every time. That's why it should be a carefully thought out thing. |

It is 2013 and they have 5 shows a week. You can't just book all the top guys to be win all the fucking time and expect people to stay interested. There is only so many ways to write "_____ overcomes the odds and wins." or "_____ barely beat upstart ____." or how many other stories that all end the same fucking way.

Who the fuck cares what the outcome of matches are when everyone's just losing around the same amount? You have your strong guy(s) who are so tough to beat that it almost instantly catapults you to the top if you can do it, you have your guys near that level, you have your jobbers.
The reason most TV matches are meaningless now is because the outcome doesn't matter. Everyone's jumbled up in a mess where everyone loses roughly the same amount so who cares? A win or a loss doesn't signify your position anymore. |

I'm sure it would be fixed though with the James Steele "pick the winner of each match out of a hat" method to prevent the same stories from being told over and over.
