5 Reasons why I can't hate John Cena anymore

#3 Consistency and Passion

Sports and sports entertainment, in general, is a hard way of life. Regardless of the "predetermined outcomes," WWE Superstars are some of the hardest working, most disciplined athletes on the planet. There is not another industry where your body is beaten and bruised as much as professional wrestling. For upwards 250 days per year and more, these men and women go out on a nightly basis and put their own bodies on the line, all for the sake of entertainment.

Leading the charge in this intense way of life, is John Cena. You can look high and low, but you will never find anyone who works as hard as Cena. The 40-year old Superstar is performing at a rate that most people half his age cannot keep up with.

Some may wonder why John Cena is seemingly hand-picked by Mr. McMahon and the WWE creative powers-that-be. Well, every team must have a leader and every ship must have a captain. Until someone is discovered who can outwork John Cena, he will continue to lead the charge, well into his 40's and beyond if necessary.

Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.

Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.

Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.

When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
