5 Reasons John Cena Heel Turn Is Impossible

4. The Military

Vince McMahon has a lot of respect for the Armed Forces. He had always liked using patriotic characters on his show, and has gone to great lengths for his company to show appreciation for the men and women who give their lives to protect the United States. It€™s why WWE has the Tribute to the Troops shows, and it plays a key role in Cena€™s popularity. Though some wrestlers are more patriotic than others, few WWE Superstars show their appreciation for the Armed Forces more than John Cena. From wearing dog tags, to saluting at the entrance ramp, to starring in The Marine, Cena clearly respects the Armed Forces a lot. The WWE frequently partners with military organizations, does promotion for veterans€™ services, and offers free tickets to soldiers in many locations. Love him or hate him, John Cena respects the military, and they in return show their appreciation for him. Cena often mentions on-air when Armed Forces members are at ringside, and has explained how much they mean to him. On a recent episode of RAW, when Paul Heyman was trying to get Cena to turn heel, Cena mentioned how proud and honoured he was when a soldier gave him his Purple Heart. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRftfEtPgrc John Cena as a heel simply wouldn€™t be able to use that relationship with the military to get over. While members of the military might find Cena boring as well, that possibility does not even come close to how much he gets cheered by the military and by patriotic fans. In the grand scheme of things, as long as John Cena shows his respect for the military, he will never turn heel.
