Are they aware they're making Cena look like a scumbag?

-Comes back and basically says "I'm John Cena so I can demand a title match, fuck you"
-Sees his girlfriend getting jumped for months while his name is being dragged through the mud, doesn't go to Bryan or Shane asking for something to be done
-Doesn't even really acknowledge Nikki in anyway, not even a small backstage segment where he's hyping Nikki up for a match
-After all this, he's only gonna get involved because Miz eliminated him from the battle royal and his wife just so happened to jump Nikki

It's pretty hilarious honestly, like "if you love somebody, ignore them getting jumped unless it explicitly has something to do with you. :lol

I personally think it's hilarious how much the John Cena character doesn't give a single fuck about his 'girlfriend' on the show. She got her ass beat and all he cared about was his title match. :lmao Natalya and Nikki were borderline feuding over who Cena would have married and not once has he shown even a modicum of interest in either Nikki or Natalya. Now the only reason he's going to get involved is because Miz cost him his match. OP is 100% in saying that Cena looks like a fucking scumbag but I think it's hilarious.

Think about it. Anybody so much as even mentions Stephanie McMahon's name and HHH is out there with his sledgehammer in 2 seconds flat. Cedric Alexander and Alicia Fox had more credibility as a couple than Cena and Nikki do right now. Hell, Noam Dar and Alicia Fox have more credibility lol. When somebody talks crap about Lana, Rusev beats the fuck out of them in a hotel room.

Nikki gets her shit kicked in and Cena brushes it off and prioritizes his title match. :lol I can't wait to see how the rest of this unfolds. I reckon it's going to be a whole bunch of awkward moments of Nikki fawning all over Cena because she finally has the chance to do it in public while he looks like the most uncomfortable guy in the building. It's going to be great lol.

Kayfabe, they can easily explain this detail away. Nikki, for example, might have told Cena to stay away from her in the ring so that she can make a name for herself, not off her boyfriend. Or both of them wanted to keep their private lives separate from work until Miz + Maryse forced their hands.

This is a non-issue.

I don't think they care. John looks like a jerk and Nikki looks like a love struck idiot at this point kayfabe wise.
From what I've seen on Total Divas/Bellas this seems to be the foundation of their entire relationship lol
I'm a big fan of Nikki, but on those shows she makes herself look like a love struck idiot while he couldn't care less if she's around or not

Cena has been booked like a scumbag for years.

One of many examples is - years ago Cena was being attacked and Mark Henry came out to help him. The very next week, Henry was being beaten up because of what he did the week prior and Cena (because he only wants to be in the main event segment) didn't come to Mark Henry's aid.

Cena's booking has always been terrible. Everything about him whether it's his fault or not is terrible. Was he scripted to cut that horrible Royal Rumble promo where he called that girl in the audience a huge slut? What about when he re-writes history of a storyline, which really isn't what happened to make himself sound like the good guy? The guy has been booked like a scumbag his entire career.

So your girlfriend is laid out on the ground after being assaulted by a woman with a pipe and you're just gonna sit in the back and go "Well i gotta let her fight her own battles, infact i'm not even gonna go out there and check on her". No ones saying Cena should being helping her in her matches, but fuck at least run out and check on her after the match or show some kind of freaking concern.

Take it as an evolution to Cena's character. He's no longer the hard-working, humble man who was in WWE week in and week out, now he's an entitled part-timer who demands shit simply because ''he is John Cena''. Closest thing you're gonna get to a heel turn right there.

I can't believe after the last few months The Miz has had as IC champion he is being flung into this sh*t show of a match at WM, it's a massive waste of Cena as well.

If the rumours are true that Bryan comes down with a running knee to Miz to which Cena/Nikki win the match and Cena proposes in the middle of the ring, that would be a complete and utter embarrassment and i'd be stunned if John "i'll never marry again" Cena would agree to something that low.

Whether they do it for publicity or not WM should not be a basis for a f*cking Total Diva's/Bellas stroyline, that is pathetic.

I always wonder why they didn't make Cena & Nikki play a couple on screen, despite having them on Total Divas and mentioned their relationship for more than a year.

probably because Nikki was a heel back then and after the brand split, there's nothing they can gain by doing so until recently and now the WM match.

Nikki Bella is a professional wrestler (lol) so in that role if John Cena has to fight her battles for her she looks like a weak as hell babyface. The women's revolution in wwe isn't about having men fight their battles for them. It's about proving what they can do on their own.

Also, it's wwe. Do fans question steph for marrying a guy who fake r*ped a dead person for the lolz. Do fans care that Kane tried murdering multiple members of the roster in the past? Do we care that Undertaker tried sacrificing humans and kidnapped people or killed Paul Bearer? Did we all protest the lunacy in the fact that somehow a mcmahon appointed commissioner somehow has more power than mcmahon himself when convenient but other times mcmahon is just capable of firing the commissioner? The deeper you look into things making sense when you watch wrestling the less you're gonna enjoy it.

They went over this on talking smack just a few weeks ago when Nikki was 'attacked' by Natalya and had her face slammed into some glass and started dropping mania hints. Cena basically said sat there with Bryan and asked if she was okay, then went into talking a bit more about how strong of a person she is in and out of the ring, that the resolve in his relationship with Nikki was that they each handle their own business. He also acknowledged that he knows she doesn’t want Cena to be her excuse for anything. Which basically fixes that issue, and kinda puts it as "yeah we work alone but if there was a chance she needed me then..."

That´s why I said, he should lose to Styles at the Rumble, snap, blame Nikki and their relationship for his failure to win #16 and turn Hollywood Cena. That´s where the whole writing and acting of Cena for six months pointed toward to, but I once again forgot that WWE does nothing with any logic, on-screen end goal or purpose. But then Cena never acts like a boyfriend on the Bellas show, like he´s gay or asexual.

They probably should have never acknowledged the relationships because it leads to moments like these. Cena watching footage of Nikki getting her face smashed in and deciding to continue his interview instead of tend to her in the back. Renee Young hosting an interview with Naomi(IIRC) in the ring moments after Ambrose essentially was electrocuted and sent to the hospital(I'd imagine).

It adds for more personal and heated promos when real-life shit is put on blast, but it unfortunately also leads to situations like these where the significant other looks like they don't give a fuck about the well-being of their partner.

Well it leads to these situations, cause WWE are lazy. Why can´t Renee act concerned, say I can´t do this right now and leave the ring to attend to Ambrose. Then one of the fourhundred announcers steps in and does the interview with Naomi. That would actually forward the storyline and make the situation appear serious. Just like Cena should act concerned on Talking Smack and attend to his girlfriend after the pipeattack, especially when he is now in a goddamn mixed tag WM program. It makes zero sense Cena doesn´t come out in that situation.

Though I love how Miz always stops Maryse fron going full psycho. :grin2:
