Kind of anti-climatic to actually announce when it gets cashed but then again next week is a special event.
Probably the best way for a case holder to actually lose if they have no real advantage but at the same time it guarantees Cena doesn't turn heel since the case provides the easiest way for the switch to happen. A lot better RAW than last week. |

Not gonna happen. Not with Cena trying to become the "Wilt Chamberlain" of Make-A-Wish, not to mention the millions (and millions) of dollars in revenue that would be lost in hat/shirt/wristband sales just to appease the IWC for about 3 months with a heel turn.

I somehow knew that would be the finish, although I expected him to announce he was cashing in at SS, but damnit. That had to be the best opportunity ever to turn Cena heel. I was totally drooling over the possibility that maybe, just maybe, he would cash in tonight and turn in the process and finally become fresh again. Oh well.

Cena vs Punk just being announced leads to the chance of a shitty finish just to stretch things out. Cena cashing in his one guaranteed title match makes it a PPV quality match. |

I am hoping against hope for Punk vs Rock at WrestleMania but it won't happen.
More likely that Cena wins the title next week and uses it to bribe Rock for a rematch which could only really happen at WrestleMania. I can't really see Rock wrestling at SummerSlam. |

I would have no problem with Rock/Cena II, Taker vs. Lesnar, and Stone Cold vs. Punk at WrestleMania

He doesn't have to go heel to change up his character and be less boring, repetitive, and predictable. Hogan's turn was kind of "what else can we do with him?" He had been a heel, but that was before he was a household name, whereas Cena's BEEN heel before while in the spotlight... that's pretty much how he made a name for himself. His face turn came because he was the hot new thing that everyone got behind (much like Ziggler, people want him to turn face SOOO BAD). Changing sides is way too much of a kneejerk reaction. Sometimes it makes sense, but other times, you don't have to turn someone face/heel to make them fresh. It's not him being a face that has run its course, it's the whole "overcoming the odds, even when it makes no sense to do so" thing. Cena turning heel won't fix that. And THAT is what people need to grasp. |

I predict the high level of almost unbearable bitching will continue on TPWW for at least another 500 episodes of RAW.

Or maybe that's not necessary. Maybe the Cena fans getting their way after all the tears shed the year before is enough. I don't know.

Are you also saying there is no chance whatsoever that if he were to "embrace the hate" (forgoing the boatloads of cash and surefire PR machine), he still wouldn't be taking 3 finishers to the bare floor and hopping up at "9" to beat the count back in the ring like he simply took a slap in the face? He will already still have his "you can't wrestle" detractors, along with those who are burnt out on him always doing the same shit (X-Pac heat) and the blind haters who hate simply because disliking Cena is the cool thing to do. A heel turn won't change all that, nor will it automatically make him more compelling in and of itself. Inversely, he changed up a bit in his feud with Punk (less jokes and "happy-go-lucky", more focus and aggresson, and full Boston accent in his promos), and that was a step in the right direction without depriving the 7 year old "Little Jimmys and Jennys" of their hero. |

Valid point. Better yet, seeing as how Rock said he would be champion again one day or whatever, they could have held out and had Cena cash in had Rock won the title. Someone probably already said this but whatever.

Hope Rock goes for the WHC instead of the WWE. I know he said WWE but he could just say he changed his mind.

The WHC is seen as the second rate title now. No way Rock goes for that one.

This RAW is going to kick ass. Huge returns, Huge builds to "dream matches", a wedding that will no doubt end in a huge clusterfuck of memories for wrestling fans for generations, and a WWE Championship match that will probably be awesome and you can't predict a winner easily. Oh and did I mention...
