#3 He’s been replaced
“There was a time, not too long ago, when John Cena’s entrance theme would be drowned out by a cacophony of boos cascading down the arena. Fans threatened to riot if he won another match and desperately threw their weight behind each of his opponents, hoping against hope that he would finally lose” – this is the sentence that I began this article with, had you noticed.
And if you just remove ‘John Cena’ and replace it with ‘Roman Reigns’, it would still ring true, even today.
Essentially, that’s what has happened in the WWE too – John Cena has been replaced by Roman Reigns as the top babyface in the company. While that means that all the fans seem to have hopped on Reigns’ back now, it also means that John Cena doesn’t have to be a babyface anymore.
It’s still likely that Vince forever sticks with him as one, but if he ever chose to turn him, now wouldn’t be a bad time at all.
