this whole marine thing isnt working, and the movie is over anyway. he should go back to his rapper gimmick roots, but since hes an snl fan anyway, they should tweak the gimmick and have him be a rapping robert goulet wrestler, like will ferrell, lol.  |

The Marine thing is dumb. The movie flopped. Why bother dwelling on it? Once the DVD promotion is done, they should forget about it.
Dropping the salute and the military attire is necessary IMO.
Reintroducing raps would be a good step.

I don't know about rapping but drop the marine crap would be good. Also make him more of a tweener bad ass because he just comes off lame trying to be the good guy. He could really be the next Rock or Austin if they tweaked his charchter. Also get rid of his theme music it's terrible. Basic Thugonomics works better or give him something else.

Definitely drop the Marine gimmick. It got old really fast. Maybe go back to rapper. Or something new. But whatever he does, he needs to get a new theme.

Cena's transition from thug to friendly rapper to goody-two-shoes marine has to be one of the most unexplainable in history...
And probably we haven't seen the last chapter in John Cena's book of characters.
I'm ok for a gimmick tweak only if it makes SOME KIND OF SENSE.

I think he'll be some type of military character until the US gets out of Iraq. Cena's character development, and the Marine movie itself, seems to be some kind of right wing tribute to George Bush's war.

New gimmick: Farmer frustrated with lack of government support.

He needs to drop the whole intense thing too, he looks especially retarded on the apron during tag matches.

Completly change the gimmick of the biggest draw/merchandise seller they have? Great idea

they did it with Undertaker and he's been one of their biggest Merchendise sellers for years.

They should make him like Gill from the Simpsons.
"Hey kids, you remember old Cena, right? With my records and my video with the little kid from Different Strokes? Chain Gang, huh? Who's in my Chain Gang? C'mon, someone has to be in ol' Cena's Chain Gang..."

He should be the opposit of Jimmy Wang Yang What, like faux-oriental? He could wear a ninja mask and do death defying top rope moves. |

No marine garb.
Drop the rap.
Try "Joe Everyman".
"Johnny Punchclock".
"Charlie 5 O'Clock Whistle".
It fits him.

I feel Cena, gimmickwise, is in limbo, he still dresses kinda like he did in his rapper days but thats not really his gimmick now, I think maybe a new look, nothing too outrageous and actually define his character more and he'll be fine

How are you people encouraging him to go back to the rap?
The guy couldn't rap to save his life and yet he wasn't a comedy wrestler! He was serious, and pushed as the top face in the damn company!

He should be a blue collar factory guy, something like Stone Cold, but less rednecky... if he came out with a mechanic shirt, I'd mark.
