I said John Cena.
I know Cena is the top of the company. I know that he brings in the most amount of money. I know he SELLS SELLS SELLS, but you never gave a reason as to why I am firing one of the two. So I would Fire Cena because I would want the company to take a total different direction and not one where children think the WWE is some Nickelodeon comedy show. Orton would take lead of the company in a total different direction, one that most of the true wrestling fans would want it to go. (NOT TOWARDS AN ATTITUDE ERA REMAKE). Cena wouldn't be able to take the company in that direction with him being a child's superhero.
NEVER in the company history has anyone sold merchendise that has spanned such a wide age group than John Cena. Maybe Hogan, but Cena is the hero of the kids, who will eventually idolize him in the future like we did with Hogan.
True wrestling fans were already disappearing when the Attitude Era arrived in placement of captivating storylines, risque shots and hardcore action. If you wanted true wrestling, ROH and TNA will suffice. But right now, the WWE has a good blend of what to use, and Cena is helping it.
People keep saying Cena wouldn't be fired for the merchendise. Just that? The man is absolutely devoted to the Make-A-Wish foundation, the US Army, and just about a crapload if charities that not only does he do but seems to willingly ENJOY it. He carries unbelievable dedication and there's not that many rumors about a guy like Cena in the dirtsheets.
How in the hell can you take Orton over a guy who, while he may be hated by IWC bandwagoners who don't realize he's really good, is absolutely untouchable in terms of making him OR the WWE look bad?
Orton will be fired way before Cena.
