One thing that really annoys me about John Cena...
His attire. I mean, the shoes he wears, the shorts, they just don't scream "wrestler." If John Cena was still wearing his bi-coloured trunks, I'd probably like him a lot more. I don't mind it when wrestlers bust out the unusual attire to set themselves appart (Paul London & Brian Kendrick), but for the most part, I think a wrestler should wear wrestling attire.
John Cena wears shorts like he's embarrassed to be a wrestler. I guess that's all well and good, apart from the bit about him supposedly being the best wrestler in the company. I know tights might not be the coolest thing around, and I can understand why some wrestlers separate themselves by going baggy, but come on, when you're wrestling Randy Orton in his skimpy trunks, it's not like you've got anything to lose. John Cena just seems to do it in a condescending way, too. I guess it's because I saw him on Conan O'Brien and they discussed it, and he said that the man fighting in tights business isn't his thing. I guess Cena might have just been trying to be funny, but come on, if you're a wrestler, you shouldn't be ashamed of the wrestling industry. It's probably not as big a deal as I'm making it out to be, but honestly, I associate John Cena's wrestling skill with his trunk-wearing days. The shorts fit him when he was all ADD and rapper, but he's grown past that now. He doesn't need to be "different" now that he's meant to be the top guy, and he doesn't even do the rapper shit anymore. John Cena just looks like a fool when he's out there wrestling in shorts that look like they're for a pre-teen boy and shoes made for a night at the movies with girls he wants but can't have. Honestly, put conventional attire and boots on the man, and he might seem less awful. Pfft |

I kind of agree that his attire's annoying, but while he's still Superman, I don't think it'll make any difference.

His attire makes him different from everyone else. Maybe the whole company should just wear black trunks and boots.

Maybe we should just give him a 2x4 or hook him up wth a shemale valet.

The SNitcsky/Venis match had me looking at two generic wrestlers only know generic wrestlers don't have mullets, they shave it balled. So I dont' mind the attire as much as he annoys me with his "Marine" shit.

I'm sure Cena is a gayer. That's why I don't like him. Mostly.

In case no one has noticed, and it doesn't look like anyone has, he hasn't done the "marine" thing in about a month and a half.

Of all the things that could annoy you about Cena you pick his attire.
In all honesty I get where you're coming from. And that line about "not being his thing" is bullshit. I remember towards the beginning of his career he boasted he had like 200 pairs of trunks/boots. I actually his look back then. It was different enough. Maybe they should go a little tongue in cheek and have him wear blue and red tights (and come to the ring in a red cape) |

Honestly, if Cena came out in tights now, I'd laugh. I dunno, it's just not "him" now. He could pull it off back in the day, but now, it just doesn't fit his personality.

Being different was fine for John Cena when he was fighting up the midcard. Right now he is meant to be carrying the company. A WWE Champion, no matter how "controversial" they are meant to be, should be a wrestler first and foremost. John Cena wrestling in jean shorts says "I'm too cool to wear what the other guys wear, despite this being my profession," and that's not in a good way. Something as little as the colour of your tie can alter people's perceptions of you, drastically. I knew so many of you would be predictable and condescend the concept of a wrestler's choice in attire, but there have been tests done to prove what someone wears, and even what colours effects how easily people buy into them. My proposition is that John Cena wrestling in street clothes makes him hard to accept as a wrestler. Wrestling attire, as "gay" as it may be, could theoretically help me accept John Cena as a wrestler. Last edited by Mr. Nerfect; 07-18-2007 at 05:56 AM. |

His attire fits his gimmick. I'll say it again. I like John Cena.

I'm pretty sure it's some sort of underdog gimmick.
I don't know, maybe I've forgotten but I've been brainwashed with all the 'CAN CENA OVERCOME THE ODDS' promos. |

It's less "underdog" and more " won't back down."
It's almost like they're trying to turn him into a typical action movie hero. the odds are against him, but he goes in full force, kicks ass, and wins in the end. |
