John Cena has probably been my favourite thing about WWE 2012, the past 2 weeks specifically, I love how he's getting a more heel type character, Destroying Jack Swagger, interrupting Punk, and being pissed off after Eve said it was his fault.
I'm really looking forward to Rock/Cena now, I really hope he keeps this character up for when The Rock comes back, it will really add to the match, I could see The Rock doing a promo on Cena and Cena interrupts him just to fight.
What do you think of Cena's character?

It's getting better every week and if he keeps it like this we won't need a heel Cena (Although a heel turn in the future would still be great).
The build up for Rock/Cena should be epic.

Looks like business as usual to me, bud. Sorry. Other than some overly intense facial expressions and a few more entertaining matches I see the same 'boy scout' we've always been forced into. The 'toying with the dark side' thing is kind of interesting but at the end of the day, heel or face or alien from Mars, John Cena is still John Cena.

I must say, now that he's becoming more vengeful in his behaviour and introducing a bit of grey to his character rather than just the black or white I'm enjoying him a lot more.
If he keeps this up I can see him achieving the same standing quality as his predecessors.

When he pushed Josh out of the way for the interview, all I thought was this...

I don't get why we aren't allowed to just have a good guy. People keep throwing 'goody two shoes' and 'boy scout' around when describing Cena. I don't see why a lot of people's problem with Cena is that he is a good guy with certain values. Everyone according to WF has to be a 'badass', or a Heel, or a badass Heel, otherwise they ain't happy, it seems. That said, if anything I think Cena could be the ultimate Tweener. It was so cool seeing him come out and get in CM Punk's face at the start of RAW, 'cause frankly, Punk was rambling a bit lol. |

Because this is the same John Cena that was screaming basic thuganomics and spitting freestyles as a huge heel on Smackdown.. We all know what he can do as a heel.. We just wanna see it one more time. |

I expect promos along the lines of "They have EARNED the right to cheer and boo who they want, they're the WWE UNIVERSE! No no no n-n-n-n-n-n-n-no my friend, even if they call me a FRUITY PEBBLE, we're LIVE with the WWE UNIVERSE!" for all of 2012.
In other words, the Kane storyline ends at Royal Rumble, Cena wins at WrestleMania, Rock comes out one more time to try and get a Cena heel turn, but Cena AA's Rock and Raw ends and no heel turn for 2012.

I just said that's the same John Cena.. And how was he far from a huge heel? I remember him getting boo'd like crazy. He had feuds with the top babyfaces. Cena was not far from a huge heel, when he was a heel. |

So the problem with Cena being a good guy now is that he was once a big Heel? Guess it was also a problem turning turning CM Punk Face this past year, turning Austin Heel in 2001, turning Triple H Face in 2006, because they were all the opposite at one point...? Don't really get that logic. And fair enough, Cena did have some big feuds as a Heel in 2003, but come on it lasted about 5 months and then he had turned into a massive Face by November. |

I'm fine with Cena being Cena. I actually care less about this angle with Kane than most people, I find it really dull.
Jericho however...

When he pushed Josh out of the way for the interview, all I thought was this... Dude looks like fat Miz..... But yeah I'm a fan of Cena. All this angle is meant for is to give Cena an edge going into his fued with Rock. I just can't wait till the end when Cena destroys Kane due to all the hate he is finally embracing, and the following bitch fest on this site that will follow. |

I don't have the slightest clue where you grabbed my "logic" from.. But okay. There is no problem with Cena being a good guy. You are confusing me with someone that cries over him not being a heel. My logic is that it would be nice to see him play heel one more time in his career, in a different form. Especially as GIANT as his name is now. Almost all super baby faces had a hardcore heel run in their prime. That's all I'm saying.. I don't really care if he does or doesn't. |

I said 'I don't see why a lot of people's problem with Cena is that he is a good guy with certain values.' You replied 'Because this is the same John Cena that was screaming basic thuganomics and spitting freestyles as a huge heel on Smackdown.' Hence I thought you were implying the problem with him being a 'good guy' now is that he was a big Heel at one point. |

Still can't stand him, especially whenever he awkwardly tries to stand up for Zack Ryder mainly because it just seems so forced, but I must admit he's been a lot more tolerable as of late.

the fact that John Cena is not anywhere near the WWE championship picture and even occasionally takes a back seat to guys Like Punk and Ziggler makes this his best year in a long time ( and this is coming from a Cena fan )

Turning Cena heel won't benefit anything. It would just flip the reaction he gets from the fans. I would rather have him still be a face but with a little bit more aggression.

Squashing Jack Swagger, Making angry face, and interrupting CM Punk are not characteristics of John Cena turning heel. It's actually the same stuff he's always done.
