10 Reasons WrestleMania 32 Changed Everything

10. Never Trust A Wrestler

For days leading into WrestleMania, John Cena insisted that he was merely taking the role of observer for this year's event, his shoulder not quite healed enough for him to justify getting back in the ring.

He told anyone who would listen that he was sitting this year's show out. When asked by Complex magazine if he was angry that he would be missing his first WrestleMania event since 2003, Cena responded by saying, "not at all because it's not time."

Apparently, that time came somewhere between that article being published on April 1 and Sunday's event because Cena came to the aid of The Rock, helped him dispose of The Wyatt Family and enjoyed the bright lights of the grand stage from inside the squared circle rather than the stands.

While taking what a pro wrestler says at face value goes against better judgment most times, Cena is the face of WWE, its franchise star. When he stands at a podium at a major press conference and says he will definitely not be part of WrestleMania in any other role but spectator, then does the complete opposite, the days of believing anything sold to you by a wrestler or promoter are dead and gone.

Not that they should have existed in the first place. Wrestling is, and always has been, born in deceit after all.
