Although I dislike Cena, he is over (just) with the majority of fans and he does sell merchandise. But he just can't wrestle. And since he can't wrestle, he must have been doing something right backstage in order to get his push in the first place ie. being McMahons 'boy' and being so 'Pro-Wrestling' that it's borderline ridiculous.
I never heard of Taker/Austin/Michaels/Rock hanging out with Vince outside of wrestling, nor did I hear them sound off and defend the wrestling business as much as Cena does. We know they love(d) the business, but they didn't need to shove it down our throats. But Cena will do anything Vince or Management asks him to, why? Because he's a kiss ass.
I await my flaming from the Cena marks.

Most of the main-eventers have had close relationships with Vince. According to Bret, he considered Vince to be a second father and even drew a picture for him after he got the belt (might have been the IC belt).
Michaels: Despite arguing with him alot, apparently Vince liked what the Kliq was doing according to Nash and Hall. Also, he participated in the Montreal Screwjob.
Austin: They were pretty close until 2002.
Taker: He's loyal and I remember reading somewhere that they would ride motorcycles together.
Rock: Rock was able to buy his name from Vince because of the good relationship he had (and might still have) with Vince and the WWE. Also, he had the advantage of knowing Pat Patterson as a kid (he was a friend of his father and grandfather).
As for Cena, so long as he doesn't wrestle like this, he'll be fine.

I think Cena should be allowed to be himself more. He has charisma in his interviews, but somehow it gets dampened on Raw. Then again, the last time I saw Cena on TV was when he was a heel on Smackdown.
