10 Main Eventers Who SUCKED At Great Moves (But Did Them Anyway)
4. John Cena - Springboard Stunner
John Cena debuted a move that would later become known as the Oscutter in a WrestleMania 31 match with Rusev, and though the execution was mostly clean (perhaps the cleanest ever, in fact), it was still deployed in frustratingly typical fashion.
Unsuccessfully attempting to garner a surprise pop from the crowd, Cena connected well and Rusev sold like Stone Cold Steve Austin himself had just dropped him, but the two-count that followed generated the same low-level heat as the spot itself.
Cena persisted. Unable to perform it with enough grace to gain awe-inspired gasps as the weeks progressed, 'The Champ' looked like a bumbling loser as did those forced to bump of the contact-free hold. A rightfully p*ssed off Stone Cold Steve Austin (having already begged Cena to lock his STF in a "little tighter" during a podcast interview) didn't appreciate his lifetime money-maker being tossed aside for two-counts but 'Big Match John' continued to detonate it for diminished returns.
He's largely abandoned it now, though mainly because he's given wrestling in general the heave-ho in favour of Hollywood. Hopefully not doing any of his own stunts, if the last year or so of his full-time career was any measure of his ability to still perform.
