Anyone ever see basket case?
Soon it will detach and evolve into Dark Cena.

Why do people find it so hard to believe that he may very well be taking signifigant time off? This also raises the possibility of Bryan winning....

Because it's John Cena and the WWE can't afford for him to take any lengthy time off, plus Cena is a company man and won't want to leave unless he absolutely HAS to.

"Because it's Cena" is not an argument. He's injured, he's injured. Doesn't matter if he's the top guy. He's been out for four months before, depending what the doctors say, he may end up having to take time off for a while again. An elbow injury isn't something he can just shrug off just because he wants to keep working.

I say this almost entirely seriously: I'm not entirely convinced the man understands he is human. We joke about him no-selling serious stuff, but this is a man who didn't miss a single show on television while going through a divorce. I wouldn't be surprised if he showed up the week after surgery, not wrestling but still cutting promos and being in angles so that as soon as he's healed he can jump straight to wrestling.

He's like the Rock quote "..and I'm never ever going away". I imagine they would make him the GM and roll him out in a wheelchair if needed only to avoid him taking time off.

Y'know, I don't think I'd be opposed to Cena becoming a short-term commentator like Punk did a few years back. He could replace King, it'd be great.

YES. In fact, he should just do that after he finally hangs up his jorts.

Well, I meant metaphorically "hanging up his jorts". I'd still have him keep his gear in the same way that Macho Man would look like a drugged out peacock doing commentary while Vince and Heenan were dressed relatively conservatively.

The guy needs to take some time off. Firstly because he's going to run himself into the ground, and secondly because it could actually freshen him up without needing the long-desired heel turn. Remember the pop he got at the '08 Royal Rumble in New York City of all places? That would not have happened had he been present on TV doing his usual schtick for the past several months beforehand. Just give the guy some time off and *gasp* take a chance on a new guy on top. Bryan *may* be over enough to pull it off provided they set him up with a damn good heel to feud with.

A day or two in yellow sunlight and he'll be fine. Just like always. Maybe a senzu bean, just to be safe. Zack Ryder: SENZU BEAN! *throws it at Cena's face* Cena: Thanks buddy! *Cena eats senzu bean, and grabs his elbow in pain* Cena: OW! That made it WORSE!

He's been out for four months before, depending what the doctors say, he may end up having to take time off for a while again. An elbow injury isn't something he can just shrug off just because he wants to keep working. I mean this with all the respect in the world, but that is an argument. Think about it, I mean, really think about it. Cena has repeatedly had injuries that would've put out most wrestlers for extended periods of time. Usually with getting surgery for it and coming back in half the time an average wrestler would. And, it's worth noting, even then by most professional medical opinions those wrestlers are rushing back. It's been repeatedly noted by those in the business that Cena is inhuman in how much he wrestles on a daily basis banged up. How he rushes himself back to the ring, despite arguably not being ready or fully healed. The man either has the biggest insecurity problem of all time when it comes to wrestlers or he's that programmed to be a company man that he's literally sacrificing his well being. I remember Edge doing an interview shortly after his retirement where he made comparisons between John and himself, in terms of how banged up both of them are and how, now that he's had his eyes opened a little, he's concerned about John's future health. Because it's not a very well kept secret that Cena is literally destroying his body more than most wrestlers. The way he made it sound, one would think he's going to become a Dynamite Kid scenario.

Every time this has happened in the past Cena still manages to find himself on RAW every week. At Hell in the Cell he had to be taken out of it for surgery on that elbow, he was still on RAW every week doing his normal shtick just not wrestling and being a hype-man for Ryback.

Like everyone else has said, whether he is hurt or not, Cena will be around.
This isn't the first time, second, or third. This happens just about every year with Cena. He gets hurt, and either has surgery or fights through the injury. Regardless of what he or the company chooses to do, he is right back out there immediately and on tv every week in some way shape or form.
Either people don't remember or haven't been watching since 2005. The guy never takes a significant break. The one time he did (Fall '07) he STILL came back 4 months early.
And let's not forget, Cena doesn't need to wrestle to be the WWE Champion. He can be the champ and still come out every week and just cut a promo or get into a spat with a future challenger. Cena can get away with these things because he is very much needed by the company since they apparently think the WWE will sink without him being there for one week.
