John Cena is one of the greatest to have ever laced up a pair of boots. He is considered to be the Hulk Hogan of the modern era as he has carried the company on his back for more than a decade. He is the most marketable face in the entire roster and this loyalty towards the company is unparalleled as despite being a bright upstart in the movie industry, the Cenation leader returns to the company for short spells.

Early on in his career, Cena was criticised heavily by fans and critics for his limited move set. Chants of "You Can't Wrestle" and " Same old s***" were a common occurrence during his matches during the mid to late 200's. Cena's move set was so awful that it go dubbed as the 'Five moves of doom' as he had only had five moves in his arsenal.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

But, the story now is completely different. Cena still has his 'Five moves of doom' but in the recent years have become one of the most reliable performers in the entire company. His matches against AJ Styles, Kevin Owens, and Seth Rollins have been unanimously praised by fans and critics alike. Cena has improved by leaps and bounds both in the ring and on the microphone and it doesn't look like the 41-year-old will be retiring anytime soon.
