Many "Smart" fans hate them for obvious reasons. Both fit that category in our standerds now of the "Hated too much to be a good guy, Loved too much to be a bad guy" role, but in the grand scheme, who is the bigger lightning rod of our hate?

Has to be the Miz. With Cena, there is a sector of "smarks" that actually do respect the guy for all the work he's done for the company and even admit that he can have good/great matches. Hell, he won the WON Wrestler of the Year Award TWICE.
Miz doesn't have that.

Cena. I've read some legit complaints and others not so much but I'd probably say he's probably one of the most hated wrestlers in the past 15 years. Miz...not so much other than the whole reality TV star argument mostly.

When the Miz main events 79 times in a row, and comes out in the first segment and is the focus during the middle of Raw for 5+ years, then we can have this conversation.

Miz. Cena maybe overexposed but at least he's not a total embarrassment. I don't care what anyone says, the Miz is still terrible.

Miz by a longshot. He's hated for being a lousy worker, an annoying character, and now a babyface who is even more annoying than when he was a heel. And he has this air of "douchie-ness" that he can't seem to shake. I never hear the whole "reality show" argument much anymore, that was more of a mark against him like 5 years ago or whenever his first failed babyface run started.
Cena is at least somewhat respected for his work with the Make-A-Wish foundation (if nothing else).

I have been very critical of Cena in the past, but the man is immensely talented and I love watching him feud with Punk. He's a company man to the end.
Out of the two, it has to be The Miz. His character (heel or face) is utterly grating, the 'your mum' joke was the final straw. He's an irrelevance. He does have a great look and speaks well for the company outside the ring but I can't get behind him as a wrestler at all.
This is nothing about work-rate or wrestling ability, he's serviceable in the ring but I've never found him entertaining.

John Cena overall I think is. Hes been booed for 7 years by a large majority of the audience despite being a face.
The hate that has gathered for The Miz over the last couple of years has utterly baffled me. From the taunts about his in ring ability to his intimating persona (So he's not allowed to be angry? Who ever said he was supposed to be a badass?). The guy was on fire in 2009 and 2010 and really connected with the audience. He could have been a huge star if WWE just persisted.
JBL moved past the petty hate, why can't we?

Until someone goes on a campaign to have Cena arrested for attempted murder because of his ring work, it will easily be Miz.
In my experience, most people will admit Cena's talented, they just cannot stand his booking, A lot still refuse to admit Miz can even blink right.

Cena, there is still a large section that thinks Cena is worthless and the sole reason the product is PG

I've seen death threats aimed at the Miz, I haven't seen death threats aimed at Cena (though I'm probably not looking in the right places).

I think the work of both is strongly disliked but the dislike for Cena's work is less justified.

The big question is how many fans boo Cena because they truely hate Cena or doing it just because "It's the cool thing to do"?
