How many people has John Cena given "The Kiss of death" to?
Pretty much what I mean is after they lose to Cena their career go down hill and eventually into the crapper. Never to recover. (like that Rusev thread slik posted awhile ago)
I can think of a few off the top of my head: Khali (Loses to Cena Judgementday 2007) Tensai (Lost to Cena shortly after his debut) Ryback (lost at Payback to Cena then slowly went down the card) now it looks like Cesaro could be the next victim Who else am I forgetting? |

Barrett while he was leading the Nexus. For a while after he lost to Cena he was awful. Lately though he has seemed to have gotten out of that funk.

I thought Tensia was like 3 and 0 against Cena. Then his gimmick fell flat so they jobbed him out.

Yeah I wouldn't put Tensai on there. He was going to fall flat either way. That gimmick may have worked in Japan, but there was no way it was going to fly here.
Everyone knew it was just A-Train with some kanji on his face. And Albert was never a big deal in WWE. |

Jason Albert. They should have just brought him back as Jason Albert instead of half-ass covering up his past as Prince Albert. They should have nodded to it constantly, and let him build with his new Japanese experience. Total fail on the part of WWE.

This.
You can definitely see a pattern that the writers seemingly get bored of certain guys or are directed to "bury" them (Sandow, for example) and just before that happens they give the top guy a win over them whilst they're still of some value. Sandow didn't plummet because he lost to Cena, he lost to Cena because he was about to plummet. |

You can add Mark Henry to the list as well. Even after age and injury, WWE was hell bent on pushing the guy (and rightly so)... then along comes the "retirement swerve" and feud with Cena. Where's the World's Strongest Man now?

In short, he's yet another example of WWE expecting the world of a 2-dimensional character- especially if they're yet another big man- and giving up when they don't get over by osmosis instead of fleshing them out. Tensai could have worked with better creative direction. |

This is a very major way! That retirement speech/swerve was fucking gold and they did fuck all with it. Another wasted opportunity to make a MONSTER heel out of a MONSTER of a wrestler.

I don't think Savior means Cena was the reason anyone was jobbed out. He means that Cena was the one who beat the said wrestler before the writers put the said wrestler into job world.
