Since WWE is about moments, and Cena last match coming up, got me thinking. Now I came back at end of Summer of Punk so I missed the early stages. But what is Cena defining moment? Yeah the once or twice in a lifetime match with Rock and his involvement when Cena turned heel are there but without The Rock, what else is there? Seemed like Vince just saw a basic cookie cutter guy that he can constantly use as champion for all those years. Roman has been there less time and has more interesting storyline with shield and bloodline. Only Cena one i greatly remember is him kissing Zach Ryder girlfriend while he was in a wheelchair.

So with WWE being all about the moments, what is his? Promo skills are decent but not sure what stands out in his career.
You didn’t have to post this

Bolded why this can't even be a discussion, if you don't already appreciate the great moments Cena had. They been showing them every week on the show..

Also the great ethering of Roman "i need my dawgs" Reigns is a top 10 moment fwiw

Cena's surprise return at the Royal Rumble immediately comes to mind.

His return at MITB after Roman Reigns beat Edge.

Last man standing match with Umaga.

Those are 3 right off the top of my head without giving it any thought.

:comeon: You're clearly prepared to discuss John Cena in good faith.

I have nothing against the guy. I just don't recall anything groundbreaking. Not like the moments from the Attitude Era or anything after I started watching again. Maybe it was when i wasn't watching or maybe i forgot something or didn't see the ones posted on the show recently.

Breh, Cena vs RVD at Hammerstein is one of the most iconic moments of that decade. Like what are we doing here. :heh:
