Seriously...WWE is putting this man in the panel? First of all, he looks like he's on the juice 24/7. Second, if he pulls his stupid "wannabe gangsta accent" no one is going to take him seriously. I get that he's the franchise of the WWE at the moment, but I think someone like HHH would be better to put on the panel. At least HHH is articulate. I don't see a very good outcome coming from putting Cena in the chair. I know King doesn't stir crap on his show, but Cena isn't the most intelligent guy on the roster, especially with the company's rep on the line. Yeah, he's a good guy and all, but you know he's on the roids, or was before Eddie died. Look at his Prototype pics. The guy can't cut real expressions. On the Benoit tribute his "speech" seemed so forced and I honesly think the guy who writes his promos wrote it for him. WWE is just lucky the guy can control his funky ass facial expressions and stupid yelling outbursts. I think you're getting reality and nonreality a little mixed up.

It will go something like this...
Larry: So, Mr. Cena, have you ever taken steroids?
Cena: You can't see me, Larry Cameltoe! Poop, gay, blow me! *FUs Larry King into the desk and applies the STFU. Larry taps in .004 seconds*

are some people still on this? he hasn't talked all "thuggish" in years, and he hasn't made any supposed "homophobic and poop" (at least nothing too bad) jokes in months.
Not to mention all the gay jokes running around here and WCR.

cena does fine in interviews as for his work in the ring not so much....but im not telling you something you dont already know. I think is ring work is very good. See most of his matches with Edge, his match with RVD at ONS 2, his matches with HBK and even managing to make a match containing Khali nearly watchable.

To me Edge would have been a better choice... 1. He's used steroids in the past, so he could talk from experience. 2. He's obviously clean now, and just looks like a normal guy these days. 3. He's intelligent and can speak well. 4. He's a known name, and a current champion. I'd like to second this. Cena's a great PR guy for the E but with a topic like steroids, Edge could definately come of better since he doesn't look like he's on them.

It's possible that he could be on the show specifically to make a big confession about being on steroids...at this point, continued denial of wrestlers on the juice may be more hurtful than helpful.

I'm not sure why they wouldn't get Punk to do these... I mean, he's not the biggest name in the company but: a) He's still over b) He was in a program with Benoit, so he should know him as well as Cena. c) He's REALLY believale with what he says, and d) As a straight-edge person he's a welcome relief from the 'roided-up drug addict type the media LOVES! Those are all very good points. However, Punk also has a tendency to look like a homeless man. Not the best "face" of the company, in mein opinion.

I think Cena was the right choice because he's the one guy in the WWE right now that mainstream media actually likes. Plus, I doubt Edge wants to be involved in a conversation about a guy he was close to that committed suicide and involves steroids (after ESPN kind of villified him for that a few months ago). also some food for thought, Cena was a body builder before he became a wrestler, so he can comment a lot more on steroids than just wrestlers

Ok, who says he has to say yes? I mean, it's like with Bonds. Even though we all believe he's on roids, it's never been proven. Same with Cena. Whatever we believe doesn't matter. He's never even been linked. This isn't a court room. This is a soft-ball interview. He can say whatever he wants. No one treats Larry King interviews that seriously anyway.

This is indeed a court room. The American mainstream media is the largest court room in the world. A court room with no power. Sure he may get some bad press. But in a court, if you lie, you go to jail. THEN Cena would have to say yes (unless he's truely innocent but who knows). You can lie all you want to the media. But unless they can prove him wrong than it doesn't matter. They can just speculate all they want.
