Would you mark out for a "Word Life" (or similar) heel Cena?

I want to create a poll for the WWE to help them through their bad booking, if they are perusing the forum and come across this I hope they take note of the reaction and strongly consider this option this year.

Also, what about a face word life Cena?

Can't vote: instead of just "no" you added an unrelated statement "nothing can redeem Cena".

Don't worry, unvotable polls are part of WF tradition.

He'd look like a mid aged man in the middle of a crisis, the 38 year old 'gangsta' - awh hell nah.

I would mark out for Cena playing a role similar to original Wolfpac Kevin Nash, not the same obviously, but if he is going to lead a smaller group/s against bigger ones aka the Authority.. why not do it with some swagger and moxy! Make it cool instead of so damn bland..

It's too late to pull the trigger on heel Cena. If they were going to do it they should have done it against either Rock or CM Punk. Now that he's slipped (at least somewhat) down the card he's fine where he is. He can put on great matches when he's paired with the right talent, and there's plenty of good talent in the midcard.

I don't think I have or will ever mark out for John Cena, but I did smile when he bought back the Doctor of Thuganomics back for one night only. Just so much edgier, the look was better and the promo/rap wasn't too cringe.

I think the age he's at it'd be hard to go back to that character though, plus who's going to buy him as that kind of heel anymore? He's been pandering to kids for 10 years. He's portrayed as the nicest guy in the company.

Only way I could see heel Cena is if he really screwed over someone like Bryan, for the sake of being selfish and wanting 1 more title than Ric Flair, and came out and mentioned the fact he's always said he doesn't care what people think of him, he just wanted to be "the guy". Bit like Austin when he turned heel in 2001 and said he never asked for people to love him. Slightly more tricky with Cena as he does sometimes suck up to the crowd, but you could easily have him snap and just have him be a heel who's sick of being a walking, brightly colored advertising board for people he doesn't give a shit about. Wouldn't have him be corporate Cena or anything though.

CENA needs to be the Corporate Sellout.
We've seen his pad, his chick is a gold digger.
Why not go balls to the wall with the gimmick.
And make him the true corporate heel or the face of the wwe.

Grow the hair out just a tad, put him in a nice suit. Ditch the shorts. Get some proper sponsord ring gear. Etc.

He'll never turn. The time to do it was when he was facing Rocky but they didn't.

Now, nobody gives that much of a shit about him.

Thug Cena was pretty damn amazing but he's too old to play that now. Plus he can't diss his opponents like he used to due to the PG rating.
