As we've seen in the past, John Cena doesn't like to put his opponents over. Not from an in-ring standpoint, as that really isn't his choice, but on the microphone which really is up to him. Formerly, we've seen him belittle the characters of Alberto Del Rio (he's really not a millionaire) Heath Slater when he was in The Nexus (he looks like the Wendy's girl!) Booker T (The Spinaroonie is really him having diarrhea...which makes no sense) and The Rock (he's not here full time!), now he's up to his old tricks against with Bray Wyatt. Did John Cena forget that they messed up his leg? Has he not watched them kidnap Daniel Bryan, and throw him to his death onto an arena's concrete floor? Apparently not, because he shows absolutely no fear of them. Instead, he just accused Bray Wyatt of dressing like Jimmy Buffet, and sang a verse from Margaritaville. While he's at it, why not just call him Husky Harris? Cena should take a page out of Hulk Hogan's playbook (the man who was right next to him in the ring on Raw) when he would actually build up his opponents. Whether it was King Kong Bundy, Andre the Giant or Earthquake, Hogan would put over his opponent as if they were a huge threat to him. He would show confidence, but also respect them. That way, when he defeated the bad guy, he looked better. If he beats a joke, it doesn't matter. And for once, I wish an opponent would just make fun of Cena for being the father in those awful Fred movies. Let's see if he likes how that feels!
"You know John Cena, I may be a monster, but even I'm not sick and depraved enough to have starred in two Nickelodeon films for the sole purpose of money." - Bray Wyatt.
With only a few weeks left to go to build this feud, Cena is already off to a lousy start . Let's just hope that next week he doesn't make a Cheeseburger in Paradise joke.
As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at."
Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week.
