My sister and I are going to our first televised Raw this Monday and I wanted to make an anti-Cena sign. However, I read online that the WWE is known for confiscating anti-Cena signs, and I wanna know if they're still doing that before I make one.
Don't wanna waste my paper. Or ink.

I'm not sure how strict it is now but when I went to No Way Out 2009 a guy got a "Spoiler: Cena Wins" sign in. If it comes down to it, just write a sign for one wrestler on one side, then take a Sharpie and make your Cena side in the arena. They may take it away but it's highly probable that if you're in a less televised section of the audience you may be able to sneak it on camera during the intro. I suggest a classic, "We've Cena Nuff."
Fun story: I used to go to a site called "ECW Wrestling News" that launched right after the rebirth of ECW news broke. The board was populated with serious wrestling fans. One guy posted asking for sign ideas for One Night Stand II, I suggested "If Cena Wins We Riot" and the rest is history.

If you act now you can create a never before seen sign that says Cuck Fena or We've Cena Nuff.
As an added bonus you may add the words Batista and a cartoony bomb or the words Just a Big Loser.

Yeah, because there weren't hundreds of DX, Steve Austin, and Rock signs at EVERY show back in the day that all said the SAME THING. That has never happened. Ever. |

Still doesn't change the fact that repeating an insult that was funny the first time doesn't mean it will be funny the next twelve thousand. |

I used to despise the "WHAT?!" chant but now I'm indifferent because those people are enjoying themselves, good for them. |

I'm amazed that you guys are arguing about sign content instead of sign confiscation, which regardeless of your wrestling preferences is a huge f'n problem.

I've read that the confiscation tendencies vary from arena to arena and I wasn't sure what to expect.
I mean, I'm not going to have anything offensive on my sign, but I'm just wondering if I should have a backup sign in case the corrupt lawmen decide to quell my freedom of speech.

It's their product, they can choose how to present it. I don't see a problem with them confiscating signs. That being said, as somebody mentioned it varies by where you are. Around here I don't think I've ever seen anything get taken away, and I've brought some pretty, erm, interesting signs into the arena. The best way to get around it is to write pro-Cena message on one side of your sign, and leave the other side blank. Bring a marker. Easy peasy  It still might get taken away if they spot it later, but at least you'll have a better shot at getting it on TV.

In 2001, I brought a "Stephanie is Whore-ible" sign I was very proud of. They confisctaed that one. And this was the tail end of the Attitude Era, I never expected them to confiscate anything.

i dunno, some of the first ones that popped into my head,

They go as far as to confiscate anti-Cena signs now? What next, mute the Cena Sucks chants?

Yeah, I don't know why they'd confiscate an Anti-Cena sign. If they end up confiscating it, then it's stupid IMO.
HOWEVER, even if they do confiscate it, you can just start chanting "John Cena sucks" (ya know, kinda like what people did with Kurt Angle) as soon as the chorus into his theme comes up.

I'd say have some signs that are safe and then once you are seated you can write your anti-Cena sign on the back of that sign. It would likely get taken away if noticed, but you would at least be able to hold it for awhile.
