Anyway, we don't know, they aren't in the business. Besides, Cena's probably never going to retire at his pace. He just doesn't know what the fuck the word "break" means.

I think it's that Vince doesn't know what the phrase "break from Cena" means anymore. Cena would probably take a break if it was possible. Though, then again, he lives and breathes the business more than pretty much anyone.

I really wouldn't want Sheamus as the face. I dislike the Irish accent, the over use of the word "fella" and his random blabbering. If Cena retires at 40, I expect Orton to be the transitional top dog till they build someone up. No one knows who'll be next they may not be on TV or hired yet.
Someone could randomly just burst out at anytime really. Like Cena when he accepted Angle's challenge who said whilst watching it "this guy is the new face and gonna be huge"? For me he had the second coming of Maven all over him. Proved me wrong.

We're not going to be able to guess it.

In 1994 nobody said you know what 4 years from now Steve Austin will be the face of wrestling.

In 2000 nobody said you know what 4 years from now John Cena will be the face of the wrestling.

When Cena retires WWE will go into a transition period and experiment with a few guys but who comes out will be completely unexpected.

It will probally be new blood though. Someone like Bryan might be the Triple H or Angle figure to put that guy over.

Who knows...It really can be any one.
Any young guy in the company..
Who thought Steve Austin was going to be as big as he was when he was the "Ring Master"?

but he is so awful in every aspect

it's what really worries me about the product right now, how a guy like ryback can be pushed to the moon when he lacks everything that makes a star a top face of the company, at least goldberg had some charisma and personality if we to the inmediate comparison

Daniel Bryan can't since he dosen't draw shit, for the same reasons as Punk. Dosen't have that "superhero" look, and not really marketable to kids.

Ryback, Sheamus, Ziggler, Rhodes and Punk.

The idea of one superstar that carry the company is flawed. It's better to have many superstars who share the load.

Smarky Smark · 09-26-2012, 08:50 PM

Dolph Ziggler.

**Skybs** · 09-26-2012, 08:53 PM

Ryback has a very, very good chance if he is pushed right

Then there's Sheamus who WWE is trying to push as the next Cena.

Miz is also a contender, the guy has talent.

StLSaint_75 · 09-26-2012, 08:56 PM

for everyone saying Ryback, he is nearing 30 if not there already. by the time Cena isn't up to carrying the load anymore, Ryback will be 38...

Just a guess.

That's why you don't see Punk being pushed to the moon at the expense of Cena. Phil is like 32. Why put your future in a guy who is only 4 years younger than your current mega star?

WWF went to Ultimate Warrior, then Bret Hart, then Shawn Michaels, then Steve Austin, then The Rock, then Brock Lesnar, etc. and it worked because they were getting guys who were mid to lat 20's and still had (or so they thought) alot of life left.
