WOW~ Before any of them have a chance to shine, he clear them all out.

Why watch NXT guys? Sooner or later, they are all going to be feed to John Cena anyway.

People blame Seth Rollins for the product being shit, then what about
John Cena?

P.S. Micheal Cole calling Kevin Owens "This Kid" :grin2:

People might be jumping to conclusions by saying Owens was buried. It's hard to say what the WWE's plans are for him though. However I will say this, look at the other young heels they built up once they get in a program with Cena......

Everyone is totally justified to say that Owens is buried. Im hoping that he isn't cause I'm a fan, but the WWE's track record on this says otherwise........

Yeah because who can forget all those rookies who came in and beat Hulk Hogan, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, The Rock, and Stone Cold when they were the top guys in the company.

There's such a rich tradition and history of totally unestablished rookies coming in and dominating the mega star in the company. . .oh wait, there isn't because that would be fuckin stupid unless there was something incredibly special about them like its Brock Lesnar.

Balor's gonna eventually go over him (Cena) right? They can't use the whole "he's fat" argument for Balor like they did with Owens.

He REALLY buried NXT. When he buried Owens, he also buried Sasha Banks, Charlotte, Becky Lynch, Samy Zayn, Finn Balor and the others.

I don't have hope in any NXT wrestler anymore... if Owens, the most talented guy in NXT and also a Triple H guy who was supposed to have "protection" from him, couldn't do it, who will? He was the last hope. Nobody is safe/protected. Nobody has a chance.

From now on i will watch NXT knowing that those guys will never be main eventers and knowing they will be ruined when they get called to the main roster.

Everyone Cena feuds with never makes it out of the mid card. With the exception of guys like Orton and Lesnar, of course. They always tease a big push with them, but ultimately Cena squashes them back down to being midcarders who get drug along and maybe even lost in the shuffle as times goes on. And now he is getting ready to be injected back into the title picture before he even loses the US championship?:lol

You should probably be thanking booking, not John Cena. When was the last time that booking made a decision that made sense?

Common sense does not exist amongst WWE Creative. People need to stop acting like Cena books his own matches. Of course he has input, but I doubt it's to the extent that you guys think it is (that is, he's saying, "I want to BURY THIS GUYYY!!!").

As I just said in another thread, these are the same people that had Bray lose a completely pointless match at WM to Undertaker, and will have something stupid happen between Taker/Brock at Summerslam (because a loss for either of them is stupid.... and, actually... the whole angle is stupid for a variety of reasons). These are the same people that have booked Neville like a complete joke and have him lose every week (well, every week that he's actually on TV, that is). The same people that took the belts off New Day as soon as they started really getting over as heels and now have them jobbing every week.

Booking continually make awful decisions with putting guys over, but when Cena is the one booked to go over, he's the only one that ever gets noticed, and for some reason, people on the internet assume it's a choice that HE made personally.

The sooner people around here realize that WWE creative is terrible and their booking decisions never make sense, the better.

It's perfectly fine for the Cena fanboys to say that he's booking the matches and is the one wanting to put new guys over when he lets them win, but when people with criticism say he has power backstage that allows him to beat the up and coming guys, the fanboys say that he has little to no push backstage. Typical.

If you don't think he has a load of power then I don't know what to say. Do you think Hogan and Austin had such a small amount of power too? LOL.

Cena doesn't bury people... Vince buries people... Keep putting it all on Vince... Same with Seth, except it is Seths fault he can't deliver a promo consistently without stuttering or mispronouncing words... The reign is how Vince has booked it... Just like Cena's wins, Vince booked it...
Noone has done more or is doing more than John Cena in the WWE this year...
He has made the US Title the main reason people watch raw... Whether you hate him or love him or are indifferent about him, you wanna see the US Title angle thats been going on since Mania... He has stepped away from ME Scene for a year (everybody pleaded he do so), he's in the midcard and while you may say he's burying guys, without Cena they wouldn't be getting this amount of TV or ring time... KO wouldn't have been brought up yet, Zayn probably wouldn't have either... Cesaro wouldn't be getting this push (Cena is pushing him and the powers that be to push him) even did a promo about how good Cesaro is before a dark main event... I bet if it was up to Cena, he would have dropped the title to Owens... But guess what? He doesn't book himself, he does what the boss wants... His face is all over the world for WWE and even though he's in the midcard, hes the majority of the reason people are watching, mainly because of the young guys he's working with, or because they tune in hoping he loses, or they tune in to see him win... Plus he added more than the 5 moves of doom (everyone was begging that he add more moves) now people are still bitching, his ring work was terrible(been stealing the show with every match he's had)...

No matter how you look at it, John Cena is the WWE and for all the reasons I listed, the reason we are clamoring for more Owens, Cesaro, Rusev, Zayn when he gets back, etc... Is because of Cena... Noone else could have made them as relevant as they are, Cena taking the US Title and what's he's been able to do with it... Yea, let the hate begin

It's odd with Cena because when he loses to these NXT guys, he makes the defeat look so big. Like with Rusev, he loses the first match convincingly but then goes to beat him. Even then I wouldn't even call it a burial. Rusev was protected in those 3 defeats (IMO). Especially in the I Quit match where he claimed to not say 'I Quit' yet Lana was the one that claimed he did. Rusev even had Cena beat last week. Rusev had just won a triple threat match and then faced a fresh Cena and it was told that he would have beaten him if it wasn't for the interference and DQ finish.

The Kevin Owens situation right now is one that doesn't make sense. Why have KO beat Cena cleanly in the first PPV match but only to lose the next two? Especially the latest one by submission. And now Cena looks set to wrestle Rollins and he didn't do a great job in putting the champion and even the title over in the match. Calling it a burial is harsh but it's questionable booking for sure.

honestly at this point if i was an NXT star and the higher ups told me "hey were thinking of calling you up to the main roster" id tell them "no thanks im good"

lets face it Owens and all the good NXT male competitors will be fed to Cena and most of the good female talent will be fed to the bellas and become a joke like Paige.

I'm more a Cena fan than Owens fan but I kinda think it was burial.


Owens character is some sort of monster heel. and he tapped out?? who will afraid of this guy anymore if he was tapped like a bitches. no one will complain if he was just pinned. but then again Lesnar tapped to Angle too at SS2003 in his first heel turn match but he end the feud as winner. so maybe it's just overreact.

What did you expect from Cena ? The guy doesn't care. He doesn't even respect the wrestling business let along the WWE.

That was so fucking disgusting what happened at the PPV. Like it wasn't enough that Cena pinned Owens clean at MITB, he TAPPED HIM OUT. They didn't even try to protect him, He tapped out and that's as clean as it gets. Everybody was excited about Cena moving away to the midcard only for him to bury the future of the company. You might say that they protected Neville but you know deep down that Vince won't let him beat Cena clean EVER. He beat Zayn and just pinned/submitted Owens two PPVs in a row. You better believe Balor is next on his list, it's inevitable at this point.

This whole John Cena US title run was just Vince trying to push this notion that Cena is a great wrestler by putting him in long matches that has 10 thousand kick-outs and Finisher/submission teases with far superior wrestlers than him. Do you really believe the WWE is gonna book the US title this strongly after Cena drops it ? FUCK NO, look at how they've been booking the IC title.

Just how the fuck is the company supposed to progress with this bullshit ?

Well, its our fault anyway, Vince tried to push someone who was to replace Cena as the nr 1 golden boy, and that was Reigsn, but everyone started booing him and that push was pretty much stopped asap after the Royal Rumble, and now you all are surprised Vince keeps on pushing his golden merchandise boy? Gimme a break, i saw this coming as soon as Reigns lost at WM. Funny fact is that Cena has been burying people in the top in WWE, and now he is in the midcard doing the same. XD

Good example is Rusev, was doing great when he got that US title, Cena took it over and now look at Rusev, was feuding with a aimless Dolph and now is just thrown in triple tag team matches on RAW. Vince has a worse addiction to Cena than he has with bodybuilding. As long as this company still has Vince booking this crap, nobody will go to the top, same goes for when Cena is still around.

Ok first of all, Don't worry Reigns is still getting his push. They have just dialed back on him for a while but he's still gonna be in the main even before you know it.

Second, how the fuck is it our fault that the majority don't like Reigns ? The fans were screaming at Vince that they want Ambrose/Wyatt/Cesaro/Ziggler so of course they will reject Reigns. It's just comes down to WWE giving the majority what they want, which apparently is a concept that Vince don't understand.
