What Wrestling Legends Really Think Of Modern WWE
1. John Cena
Corey Graves' After The Bell podcast is essentially that famous Principal Skinner gag; several WWE star guests appear on the precipice of introspection, when confronted with the company's cascading popularity, only to decide that, no, it is the marks who are wrong.
Edge thinks we just like to complain about everything. Seth Rollins thinks we're hypocrites for enjoying Stadium Stampede and mocking Eye For An Eye, which is a bit like saying one must like both grapes and durians because, even though one tastes like sh*t, they're both fruit.
Biased mark.
If AEW grew a fruit that literally tasted like ass, you'd gobble it up!
And John Cena believes that the average WWE fan is too fickle for the company to ever promote one top star ever again: "When the company puts its faith behind an individual, the knee-jerk reaction of the audience, even if they liked the guy last week, is to say "F*ck you, you're not gonna tell me who I like".
It has nothing to do with horrendous creative, the likes of which colour one's perception of a pro wrestler more so than in-ring performance, which you'd f*cking think the "storytelling" company would have grasped by now.
"I liked the guy last week, but this week he's talking utter b*llocks about water moccasins. How fickle am I?!"
