#5 John Cena saves Christmas for children
When John Cena first debuted, he was a 'white meat' babyface who stood up to a bullying Kurt Angle. The only problem was fans didn't care for him.

So Cena developed the Doctor of Thuganomics character, an ostensible heel who wound up being so popular he was turned babyface. Eventually Cena would leave the raps and profanity behind and turn his ball cap forwards, becoming the 'heroic' John Cena.
The parallels between Cena and a super hero are myriad and layered. He fights for truth and justice, and always sticks up for what is right.
This was on full display on an episode of RAW in 2008 when Santino Marella and Beth Phoenix came out to the ring and promised to tell the children the 'truth about Santa Claus.'
But John Cena came out to save the day, challenging Santino and Beth to a mixed tag match. Cena would partner with Trish Stratus and they would prevent Santino from spilling the beans about Santa Claus' true identity.
