Recently on the internet rumors of a character called Juan Cena have been floating around. Please WWE, do not do this. I cannot think of one character that has ever had success with a masked gimmick after being fired. Even some of the best in the world have had bad masked gimmicks. Dusty Rhodes, Hulk Hogan, Owen Hart are just a few on the list of terrible masked gimmicks.
None of them worked. In fact they end up hurting the character more than helping. Fans take it as an insult that the WWE can possibly think we would fall for it. Hogan’s voice was obvious, as was Dusty Rhodes body. Owen Hart had the least defined body so this actually lead to a decent angle where Owen was seen fighting the Blue Blazer. Nevertheless, it ended up being him and being a huge let down.
Cena has a very unique look. It would be nearly impossible to find someone of Cena’s size to play Juan. Now if they could find someone with a similar body, this gimmick MIGHT actually be interesting. If it is actually John Cena in a mask, it’s terrible. Cena was fired. Let him sit in the crowds and maybe interfere now and then. When he interferes, have security and police drag him to the back and “arrest him.” Have a segment from a jail cell. Hype it up. Make the kids and some fans believe he really is fired. If he is going to play a part in the WWE legitimately, why even have a free or fired match?
Juan Cena…Please don’t do it. It won’t end well.
