What metric was the guy using to say that
I like Cena but come on now
This is what the he was trying to say but it a long winded version of
who should or shouldn't get push and who entertaining
We using to say We in the Internet Wrestling Community just love to use the term "future main-eventer" and "has all the tools in the world" and with that we have terms like "underrated" and "overrated" wrestlers. Anything that new and fresh is pretty much an excuse to create a thread to complain how much John Cena sucks ass and how this new thing should be the one to replace him.
Now, if history is any indication for you all, and it should be - NEVER did once a #1 guy got replaced while on the full-time roster. Nobody surpassed Bruno Sammartino, he just went away for some time, which led to Backlund carrying the load and to Hogan finally having his big break. Sammartino then returned, obviously not in his peek anymore as far as talent goes. Now, nobody ever surpassed Hulk Hogan. He just left in 1993, which led to the explosion of Bret Hart and Michaels to carry the load, until Austin finally came in and restored the true #1 spot for him. Nobody ever surpassed Austin, even though The Rock was close when Austin went away for some months, but as soon as Austin returned, he was once again the #1 guy bar none and then he retired for good. Kurt Angle, Lesnar and Triple H carried the load, until John Cena appeared and reclaimed the #1 spot again.
So in the whole history of the WWE, nobody ever surpassed the face of the company, while they were full-time performers. It may happen for some weeks, like with Warrior and Hogan. Rock and Austin. Punk and Cena, but ultimately the #1 always prevails.
My second point - some guys are just better not being the guy. Shawn Michaels, Chris Jericho, Edge... Those are three names that are not a part of the "big draws" in the history of wrestling, but all of them have Hall of Fame careers. Obviously someone, somewhere thought that they would be the ones to replace so and so, but that never happened and it was NOT a bad thing.
And now that I could take this out, I'll go to my actual point with this thread - WWE has a full roster right now with tremendous talents. Guys that go from Alberto Del Rio, Cesaro, Big E., Ziggler, Sandow, Rhodes, Barrett, Kingston, Ambrose and so on - guys that we all see have potential to be main event players, mostly because we're a bunch of fantastic guys and we love everybody.
But it's obviously that some of this guys won't reach the WWE World Heavyweight Championship spot, probably none of them will be the ones to fully replace John Cena since this process actually takes sometime. And as I stated, that is not a bad thing... So what I want to know is who are the guys that are currently entertaining you, but in any way shape or form, do you think that they should get more exposure or get a bigger push?
