16 Things You Probably Missed From WWE SmackDown (Aug 13)

14. John Cena’s Pop At WWE Ratings?

John Cena said that WWE has been "selling Roman Reigns for 10 years". Then, he went off on one about how that's an issue. "Here's the problem", he said". "Judging by the numbers, the only one buying is Roman Reigns. That's why I came back".

"Judging by the numbers" was the most interesting bit.

Was this Cena's way of acknowledging that WWE's TV ratings haven't exactly been through-the-roof over the past few years? The pair got a little 'shooty' later on too, so it's possible JC was happy to shoot from the hip here.
