Is this a record number of posts for a Raw thread
oh the power of the great one
I dont think Cena V The Rock will happen at this year's WM if I remember correctly and I should as I watched it a few times Rock said he'd see both Cena and Miz at WM so their has to be some confrontation between them and perhaps Rock being referee or enforcer at a match0 -

Several reports show their biggest demographic is adult males. Several reports also show that merchandise is one of their smallest revenue streams.
I doubt Vince is deliberately doing something without it having very good financial reasons for doing so. He's a cute aul hoor.Again the heel line is being used. There have been good faces once or twice in the history of wrestling too you know.
Yes but the internet tends to jack off about heels not faces, always has done.You can write me off as a message board warrior all you want. It has about as much value as me calling you a fanboy. Both are meaningless insults. All I am saying is that as somebody who has loved wrestling for 20 years since I was a kid (yes I was a kid who loved, wrestling, boo hiss I'm such a hypocrite etc), the past few years have been the only time I have not cared about large parts of the programme. And there are pretty simple remedies to these problems, many of which Cena could take if he were so inclined. I might never love Cena due to his in-ring work, but it should be possible for me to say "yeah his character is the best it can be". That is not the case now. I never cared for The Rock or Hogan in-ring. But I could say at various times that they were being booked and performing admirably.
You see to be taking mys posts as a direct insult, they really aren't. Its more of a general comment on the moaning the internet often indulges in.Simple things like getting rid of idiotic dialogue and selling things better. Look at when Punk first attacked him with the chair. He popped back up within seconds. I have nothing against goofiness in wrestling and love The Undertaker. But even he, with the character he has, sells better and more often than Cena. And he is supposed to be an unstoppable Deadman. Look at the improvements made in Taker after the arrival of Mick Foley. They stopped booking him idiotically and he upped his own game. Obviously Taker has a physicality that Cena can never replicate and Taker was directed to hold back on elements such as speed, certain moves etc, but it is an example.
Again, such minute details mean little to the vast majority of WWE fans. Cena selling the leg better, while a bit less annoying won't get the PPV buys rolling in.Edit: I'm not a fan of being told I'm going to love Cena and jerking off to him. I think I know what actually do and do not like!
The fact that you seem determined not to even give the guy a chance before you've seen what he's capable of tells me you're just a Cena hater no matter what he does, in which case you're kinda incapable of discussing him rationally.

In no way am i trying to restart a bit of controversy, but:
He hasnt exactly had the same sort of schedule as tom cruise or Christian Bale.
A few kids movies then some proper ones and comedies.
I think he needed to do that.
Lets look at it from the flip side, He comes out, as the rock, cuts his promo 100% in character. Then how does he explain his reasons to be back?
I wasnt either, its all opinion and debate!
He still hasnt been around in years, and I thought he used blame his schedule on that?
Its wrestling like, he doesnt need to go into THAT much detail. Dya think the Undertaker, or Mark even, will be discussing his sore legs next week like? Wrestling is all about suspending your beliefs for 2 hours. "I'm back" would have done the same thing. Not to mention the bollix about never leaving again, no need for it imo0 -

"I got locked into the garden shed for a few weeks there, it was raining mad for a while and there were some good magazines in there so I schtayed put for a bit. Now I'm back. Rest in Peace."0 -
