Just thought I'd say that. I've finally admitted it to myself, even though I hate his character his promos lately really make me want to like him. Especially when he forgoes the "POOPY" jokes.

I disagree. He's very...he sounds very fake. Like he's trying too hard and the feeling just isn't there, no matter how much he yells.

I disagree. I thought it was really, really cheesy. Is he still the Marine, or is he CTC gangsta Cena? Either way, I thought that promo tonight sucked big time. Just because you shout in a mic for 3 minutes about how you're going to beat up somebody doesn't make it a good promo.

He can be sometimes, but I didn't think this was one of them. This was like that Orton promo with Vince that ended up so bad it was hilarious. That whole "BLOOD WILL RAIN FROM HIS EYES!" thing. There is this happy medium in his promos that Cena hits a few times a year. It's like:
POOPY ... ... GAY JOKE ...... [happy place] ..... I ARE SERIOUS MARINE ..... BLOOD WILL RAIN FROM HIS EEEEYEEESSS!!!
Tonight he hit right before Blood Rain. Not good to me.

I actually thought he came off trying to sound black tonight, to the point it was almost offensive.

I thought Cena's promo was good and enjoyed it a lot.

He's hit and miss. Sometimes he sounds like a natural on the mic, but others he sounds like he's forced and often like he's just screaming. Sometimes his character tries to be too many different things at different times. One of the problems could be the writers are scripting his promos to death and he isn't allowed more freedom in his promos and how he delivers them.

I thought he'd never shut the f*** up.
It was fine, but after the first 20 minutes...I really, really lost interest.
Bored me to tears.....and hey..Kitchen Nightmares was on.

I thought he was good tonight, (hell, he can be real good when they don't have him playing to the LCD) but, it just went to long, imo.
