He was getting praise for a good promo in that RAW thread (from the logical posters)
You nikkas will hate Cena no matter what he does. He's out of the main event, he's elevating the mid card title, putting over flabby indy wrestlers and you nikkas are still not happy.
I think every logical wrestling fan should hate John Cena.
He has been an incredible worker for a decade plus, and clearly loves "the business."
So he should know MORE THAN ANYONE ELSE that there's something wrong with burying talent instead of putting them over...AKA what did PPV wins do for:
Nexus
Bray Wyatt
Rusev
And remember that "losing streak" he endured after losing to The Rock? The one where he beats a returning Brock Lesnar, gets the MITB, and wins the Royal Rumble?
Let's not forget what happened to Rey Mysterio's last title run...oh, and Zack Ryder and Eve...
Are you all naive or what? He has clout, but only uses it for himself. This isn't hard to grasp.
I'm not a comic book guy, but the sentiment you describe hardly evokes "Superman" in my mind. Is admitting that you got beat fair and square, but claiming the moral high ground because your opponent fights without honour or whatever... really a "Superman promo"?
You're right. Take the misused reference out of that quote, and it holds.
I threw in "Superman" part to mock the sudden moral superiority of a goody two shoes, but it really didn't make sense.
