The whole thing with Cena made me think about this. Say Bruno Sammartino from the early 1960's was transplanted from than to now and was not a legend as he is now, would he get booed the shit out of him as boring champions like Cena, Lashley and Batista are or would he be cheered as he was back than.

Absolutely.
In these smarky times, there's going to be a good chunk of people that just plain don't want to see the same thing over and over.

Probably, he had the belt for like 9 years.
That would be more then a Superman run today. I don't even know what you'd call that.

He would be given a Super Mario gimmick, therefore he would be cheered mightily

Not very comparable. We see Cena 5-10 times a month. Way more exposure.

He would job to Cena by cleanly tapping to the STFU in 2.87 seconds.
