With John Cena winning his 16th World Championship, where is he all time?

[LastEmperor2k2]

Cena is Top 15 to Top 30 over the last 30 years. Maybe Top 10 but at the bottom. But that might be a reach. Either way, not a bad ranking at all.



Hogan sure, but thats not saying anything. NO ONE rates Hogan highly as a ring worker.

I wouldn't say "shyt" on Rock in ring though. Thats downplaying Rocks work to big up Cena. Cena himself would tell you the same thing.

I never been impressed by the Rock in the ring, NEVER.

What does Rock have to compare to this

Cena vs. AJ RR
Cena vs. AJ SS
Cena vs. HBK Raw
Cena vs. Owens 1st match
Cena vs. Lesnar
Cena vs. Rollins @ Summerslam
Cena vs. Cesaro Raw matches
Cena vs. Punk MITB
Cena vs. Punk on Raw for #1 contender
Cena vs. Bryan @ Summerslam
Cena vs. Rollins vs. Lesnar @ RR
Cena vs. Umaga @ RR

Those are just to name a few, i could go on forever about top notch Cena matches. Rock got maybe a handful, nothing that compares to the level of some of Cena's best

Good for you.

Im just going by what the man himself has and can say. No way would Cena says hes far and above Rock in the ring or shyts on him as a performer. Especially when hes molded himself in many ways after The Rock.

Those are good matches. Rock has his share as well. Bouts with Jericho, Austin, HHH, Benoit, Angle, Austin, Brock etc. can all be argued against those. Rocks final two years or so in the company was his best in terms of ring work but he left right at his peak so its not really going to be a good argument or fair assessment at the end of the day.

This tha era of kick pad boots, Japanese moves, and flippy shyt, of course nikkaz not gone give my nikka Cena his credit.

Year try and rewatch Hogan Rock, shyt is not good

It was the moment that made that one

Cena absolutely shyts on rock and hogan in ring wise

I did re-watch it recently, and like I said from a technical standpoint shyt is trash. But from an epic/crowd/story-telling standpoint, it's as 5* as they come. You're hooked on every punch, every facial reaction, every bit of selling. shyt IS pro wrestling to me, not just a spotfest with a hundred kickouts

Yeah like you said at the end, Rock only had a few years where he was on top and producing classics, Cena's been on top for 12 years and counting. No shyt he's gonna have more classics under his belt
