I'd give Cena the 17th title. Unlike Flair, John has never embarrassed himself or the business, never had legal issues, never had a bad reputation outside the ring, and has done more than Flair for promoting Professional wrestling during his career than Flair did. Ric Flair was never, not ever, the global superstar that Cena was. His exposure in NWA/WCW while on top was never as wide and far reaching as Cena during his run. The WWE launched a network on the back of the Cena Era and went truly global.

I dont think its a good idea to Cena break Flair record. #1 hes just about to retire, so what for? #2 Cena`s career is below Flair level... come on just ask yourself, for the wrestling is his career or status above Austin, Taker, Flair, Hogan, no. STING who at the time Cena started (about 2002) was already at half of his career and didnt pass Flair.

CM Punk wins title between now and Wrestlemania. Cena vs Punk at Wrestlemania and Cena goes over breaking Flair's record, Punk gets his Mania main event, Punk turns heel, and now both Cena and Punk have brought some prestige to the world heavyweight title that WWE desperately needs for that title. This will accomplish 4 things while setting up Cena for a short babyface run with the title and turning Punk heel which heel punk on Netflix is a lot better than babyface Punk on Netflix. This will make all parties happy including Punk as all he wants is a main event spot at Wrestlemania. After Mania, Cena puts over the next heavyweight champion. They need to bring that title up to the same level as the Undisputed Title. This is how you do it! I should be a writer for WWE 😂
@D2KprimeАй бұрын
If Punk is gonna be a heel, that needs to happen _before_ the match. It would be cheap for him to turn heel after the fact. He's trending dangerously close to being a heel now anyway, and it seems like they have planted the seed with Michael Cole's commentary on Punk. Or, they could just leave him as a tweener which I think is where he flourishes the most.
@brandonmiller2812Ай бұрын
@@D2Kprime I agree to a point but just depends on how it would play out before then. He needs to be face to deal with McIntyre, after that it's free game. I would argue that you would want the Cena/ Punk feud to start face/face. Make it look something different than it is. Then in the middle, you either turn him heel because Cena said something he don't like etc. or you wait till Mania where Punk plays Cena and turn him heel there. Either way, make it unpredictable. Having heel Punk vs face Cena and knowing it's coming is too predictable. Needs to be set up in a savage way.

The guy it should be is Angle, but I don’t want to see Kurt take bumps anymore, it worries me. So I think a way to get there is yes bring Angle back but then have him manage Gable with them both being heels - as many have said, there is a story there that writes itself. And Kurt needs to be the wrestling machine persona, not the dork heel we all love. And Gable wins clean. This is a great way that Gable can get two rubs at once; but also it protects Cena as Gable is exceptional at making other people look like a million bucks. Having Angle involved helps Gable with the mic work, which he is fine at, but keeping up with Cena has proved challenging for many.

You just can't know his future. Having 2 16 time world champs at least you can choose who you prefer and go with in ads and other stuff. The stupid stuff Flair doing right now, will be forgotten in 5-10 years, and you again can present him as the best ever. Plus 2 16 times World Champs gives different generations of wrestling fans an argument who is better and why, with each having their reasons, why kill it.
