Is it just sheer coincidence that Cena is on the royal rumble shirt that guy is wearing?

It's Jericho and The Rock on the shirt. Cena didn't even debut by then.

Cena is mailing it in, he knows he doesn't have to work hard anymore, WWE inevitably always put him back in WWE title matches when his work is so garbage

They shouldn't be happy about that promo. It was painful to sit through.

I watched RAW on Monday with a friend of mine who used to watch wrestling, but had been away from it for so long that I had to explain all the storylines and feuds happening. In fact, he was actually really into it, especially those first two hours and liked what he saw out of Punk/Rock/The Shield and Ziggler (!).

Then Cena came out and as that stupid-ass promo dragged on and on, he became disinterested. And then it became all too predictable when the roster started making their way down to the ring.

At first glance and for that split-second, it does look a lot like Cena. But yeah, he wasn't even on the main roster yet.

Ahh nvm. Jericho with long slick backed hair threw me off

I'm pretty sure cena debut'd in 2002, though.

Yep. On Smackdown! versus Kurt Angle.

Wow, that was terribad.

Full Segment:



I get what he was going for but that was just a terrible promo. He basically rambles on for way too long and spews his funny/cutsie act all over the audience. If he's ever wondering why he still gets booed (and he does get booed pretty noticeably at the beginning of the segment) then he just needs to look to that promo.

Also, I thought this was funny:



The Official WWE Youtube Channel's video of the segment cuts Cena's promo down to about 30 seconds.

They should've made Cena watch this thing. Classic. Mostly irrelevant, yet entertaining as hell !!

[HajdukSplit]

Horrible promo, I don’t know what Cena was doing out there, most of his jokes are campy but this went beyond that. It didn’t help that they were building up to this the entire show and it was such a let down, I had to turn the channel

Probably something you wanted to add in the first place.
