John Cena is one man who routinely comes in for criticism from wrestling fans, mainly those who have been fans for a long time, and dislike the way Cena has been treated as almost super-human during his WWE tenure. In addition, the man's character is clearly aimed towards young children, making it difficult for adults to relate on occasion.

Nonetheless, despite his misgivings, it's unfair to claim that Cena is anything other than stellar when he's given the right opponents to work with, and the man has worked wonders alongside Kevin Owens during recent matches involving the pair. There's natural chemistry there, and that's something Cena himself has noticed, but he was also quick to lay much of the responsibility for those excellent bouts at the feet of Owens himself.

Speaking during various media appearances to promote his upcoming appearance in the movie, 'Trainwreck', John Cena said that Kevin Owens is destined for great things, and actually brings out the best in him. Noting that it's unlikely he will ever be fully accepted by wrestling fans of all ages, Cena says working with Kevin Owens has made him closer to that acceptance than ever before, which is high praise indeed.
