He's done that same joke before of revealing an embarrassing online name. He has? Yeah he was pissed off at something the Anon GM did and started yelling at Cole to have the GM email him. I forget what the email address was but it was same idea as the gamertag reveal.

Maybe because it's Cena showing humility which is really rare.

It's not exactly something I roll on the floor in hysterics about but I always find Cena's humour innocent and harmless. Hokey at times? You bet'cha. Sophomoric? No doubt. But harmless nonetheless. Wrestling doesn't always need to be oiled up guys with their veins popping out screaming in each other's faces how "THIS SUNDAY I'M GONNA KICK YOUR ASS RAWWWRRRRRR!", or a "pipebomb" full of insider references that 6 people will get.

It's weird, usually I find him grating and obnoxious, but something about this bit, a lot of it is his facial expressions and delivery, amuses me. Monday was one of the rare Cena promos I enjoyed.

I figured it out.
Cena is a modern day Fresh Prince era Will Smith.
Except it's 2013, and he's done nothing to try to modernize himself. It's like he took jokes and mannerisms that were funny in the early 90s, and just put them in his promos today.

They should have had Rock do the same spot he did with Foley once that promo got rolling. Bludgeon him with chairshots to save him from having to listen to the promo?

One opinion on the promo I read said that the one good thing about it was that it made Rocky look like a frickin' comedic genius by comparison.

I'll say this - for a guy who is not in a feud or program of any kind really whatsoever, it wasn't terrible.
I mean, overall it was a real throwaway promo that was clearly done to kinda go, "Hey - 'member this guy? Oh - and Rumble."
I did like Sheamus' response - "That was a very bizarre, creative, yet ....speech"
Bizarre is right fella.

By the way, skidmarks187 is an actual profile. Could be that someone made it after the promo, but I like to think some kid just got a lot of attention because of John Cena.

He's not really involved with anything at the moment, him winning the Rumble seems so random. If we must have Rock/Cena, I'd rather he win a Chamber match to get it.

I didn't watch Raw, but I sought out this promo after hearing about it. Is it overkill that once he immediately started talking about Sundays and how its a great day to relax, my cringe limit hit its threshold and I tapped out? Cena promos have become like episodes of the original BBC The Office in how uncomfortable they are... with none of the brilliant comic timing.

Just as Abe Simpson gave us the Onion Belt Story, John Cena bequeath us the Sunday Morning Promo.
