I agree with with all of this, except for the fact that he can't truly put anyone over. Yes Owens got 1 win over him but it wasn't for the title. And for him to lose the title, it almost always has to be done through cheating.
Would it have KILLED him to lose to Owens last Sunday? No. Not at all. It would have totally elevated someone to a main event level. You'd think with Cena nearing 40, they'd try to create a new mega star...but nope. Same old ****. The tap out is what really killed it for me.
I agree about him tapping out Owens. Owens had so much steam. If he beats Cena clean for the title... would have been epic. But maybe they have bigger plans for Cena's eventual loss. But again, I agree with the sentiment that Cena is too untouchable, and after more than 10 years of this sht, I'm absolutely looking forward to the day he calls it quits, or turns heel in epic fashion ala Hogan. Cena works his ass off and is a great performer on a lot of levels.. but in terms of pure wrestling... he's terrible. He takes bumps like a giant pussy and his offense is so far from believable looking.. every match he has, there's at least one really cringe-worthy moment where I smh and wonder why Bret Hart gives this guy so much props as a worker (probably just trying to stay on WWE's good side). Which brings me to my next topic..
The fact that you agreed with Polk on his piss poor assessment of Rollins makes we want to put both of you on ignore. The weakest champ since the Miz? Put yourself on ignore. This guy is the best in-ring performer in the last 10 years at least. Cena wishes he could wrestle like Rollins who also continues to impress me on the mic. Regardless of what you feel about the actual storyline, Rollins gives everything he has to his character. He has played his role perfectly and I love watching him every week. If he wasn't around, there's a good chance I don't watch wrestling anymore.
I actually like Rollins a lot as a wrestler and performer. I am just sick to death of the Authority storyline. Me referring to him being a weak champion has nothing to do with his skills or mic ability. It has to do with how cowardly he looks every week hiding behind the Authority. Even last week when Lesner and Taker were going at it and he shows up after the segment talking smack. That IS a Miz like move. There is no edge to Rollins like a comparable Orton so he comes off looking weak every time out. Hell he got killed by Lesner and would have been the most lopsided title defense in history had it not been for the Undertaker making the entire storyline leading up to it forgettable.
What did you want Seth to come out & say on Raw then? You do know he's a heel? Do you know the definition of a heel? To call it a Miz move is a super reach. You connect that to Miz because Miz is great at being a heel & is a great talker/promo guy. That's why he stuck with WWE.
During CM Punk's title run , he turned heel in the middle of it with Paul Heyman & he started to act cowardly as well. It's what being heel is about, gaining heat & making fans hate you. There's different types of heels but they're all in the same group. Hell I remember the Rock getting help from the Cooperation a lot too during his 1st title run.
Also, of course Rollins was getting dominated by Lesnar. That's Lesnar's character. Leans dominated Cena last year for the damn title. The only 1 that has put up a fight in a year and a half has been Taker.
