I took it as the white guys acting like black guys equivalent of black guys calling each other the "N" bomb...

Not a big deal, I call my friends "white boy" all the time, and I'm as white as they get. *does an awkward dance*

Not very stupid at all. A reference to his old gimmick, the gimmick I thought everyone wanted to see come back.

Would you rather he called him "my ni**a" again?

I don't know, it just made it seem like they were suggesting that Cena either had street cred or was black.
Neither of which are true.
Maybe I'm being too harsh, but I seriously rolled my eyes at that comment.

Maybe I'm being too harsh, but I seriously rolled my eyes at that comment. I barely pay attention to Cena or Vince segments so it didn't bother me. The part that bothered me was when Cena said "YOU WANT SOME? COOOMMEE GITTTTT SOOOMMMEEEEE!" He just sounded like a tardface. |

Perhaps they gave the Eugene gimmick to the wrong person?

I guess by having Cena call Vince McMahon a "whiteboy" WWE is saying that Vince looks SO stupid that EVEN John Cena thinks he looks rediculous.

I only call my friends whiteboys if someone tries to act "thug". In a country town outside of Kansas City, its impossible to be truly ghetto.

If it was a reference to an old character, Cena really chose the wrong time to do it. Save that shit for a comedy bit, not a "grr I'm tough!" promo.

I didn't like the comment either. Cena called Vince "white boy" almost to imply that despite Vince's best efforts to look cool, he just looked really really "white". And I am one of the few white people who doesn't like having the word "white" being used to imply lameness or unhipness. Even though 85% of the white population is cool with being the butt of these jokes, I find it offensive. The fact that Cena is white himself and still made that comment makes it worse in my opinion.
