Trying to recall if anything would fit and nothing comes to mind. I mean you could put any stable he feuded with extensively as sort of fitting the role but I don't think it quite matches. There was the Cena & Orton vs all the heels (of which only JBL and Umaga were actually a threat) match... but that doesn't fit either to me as it was a one off thing.
Would you like to see that in future? I would even if the result would likely be an overcoming of the odds (though they may give the rub to Cena's successor I suppose which would be smarter). Seeing Rusev and Wyatt for example interact and tag together would be nice.
Who'd you have in it? I assume everybody would give Cena some little buddies so he doesn't go over all the heels on his lonesome so who'd you like to see in that role?
One of the original promos The Shield made discussed the "John Cena problem", and that they were going to take care of it. Never heard of it again. Even after they defeated him multiple times in six man tag team matches.
Ergh I've just remembered that cage match between Hogan and The Giant at Superbrawl VI where Hogan crushed every member of the Dungeon of Doom and I've just been sick in my mouth a bit because of it.
Wow ain't that something. No I've been watching for a long time and made mention of stables in the OP. Nexus to me don't quite fit as none of them were "established" as an enemy of Cena, carried on afterwards as a group after Cena overcame them, and ultimately their goal wasn't to specifically target Cena.
So no I don't think an "invasion" stable is applicable to this. For example lets say the NXT 4 came to Raw and took out Cena because he was the top dog and than all got jobbed out one after another to Cena on PPV/RAW over a period of time. Than in the culmination Cena together with Majo Rawley beats them in a 4 on 2 hell in a cell handicap match.
They targeted Cena yes but the motivation would be to take out the top guy, not specially John Cena. Thus close, but not quite it.
