It's less that, and more the fact they feuded on and off for literally years. It's not like they can do anything we haven't seen before, it's WWE going the safe route and re-treading the same old shit rather than trying something new.

It's because the WWE is stuck in a time loop. Nothing seems to have changed in the years between.

4 years, not 3
And they feuded maybe two or three times at most, not on again off again like Kofi and Ziggler

It's not like they can do anything we haven't seen before, it's WWE going the safe route and re-treading the same old shit rather than trying something new. They can do a lot we haven't seen, especially with The Authority involved. A double-turn is the most tempting option, but what about Cena/Orton feuding with Punk/Bryan? What if Cena/Punk feud with Orton/Bryan? I've personally been itching for a new version of the Two Man Power Trip, and I've wanted them to pull the trigger with Cena/Edge, but Cena/Punk sounds even better.

I'm anxious to see the feud, and weirdly excited for the match.

It would need to be 10 years before I'd be ready to see this match again. It's not like it'll be one match. It's gonna be a whole program.

The last time it happened, it sapped my interest in the product. It absolutely kept happening over a span of three years, and I just couldn't give any shits about it then. They tried to play up their rivalry as this great thing and career-defining, but I think Cena's had better nemeses, people who he not only clicked with better but whom he had better matches with.
Six years ago, Orton vs. Cena was the story of two young guys with the potential for great careers ahead of them duking it out for the title. In 2013, Cena vs. Orton is a story where the WWE shows their undying commitment to the exact same two guys whether people want to see it or not. Nobody can be put over long-term, and the story of the past few months, with the way it turned out, has literally been the company telling us that someone we like and want to see with the title will not get it because the company wills it. But what they will give us is this other thing we saw six years ago because those guys have remained static at the top.

At this point, I'd rather they just nod at each other, each retrieve the belt they came into the match with, and become Two Man Power Trip 2.0.

I laugh every time that they have a stare down or pose with both belts and there's no reaction. It's good comedy.

In the 4 years since they last feuded there's probably some new fans that view it as a dream match.

Had they just had passing physical altercations during that period and not feuds that were the center of multiple shows, PPVs, numerous video packages...I wouldn't care. Then again, I'm at the point now where it could've been 10 years ago. I ain't trying to see this shit again.
These guys have been on in main events for years now and being that's it's only been a few years since their last big blow-off feud, I can't imagine there are that many new fans who believe it to be a dream match. I mean, aren't they getting lukewarm responses because it's a main event feud without anyone most of the audience wants to see?
I mean, when you're cutting your promo to set this up and the audience starts chanting for a dude who is nowhere near this angle to get involved, I don't think you can call it a dream match. Some people here are doing an admirable job of trying to sell it like as one, but no. It's 2013, dude. Not 2008.
Brock Lesnar/Daniel Bryan being a dream match? Okay. Cena/Undertaker being a dream match? Sure.

Ok I liked some of their matches together don't get me wrong, and I do think they could have a decent to good TLC match together (even though the stipulation should have been for the tag division) but it is no where near enough to get me interested.
And as Yakeem said it is comedy gold whenever they have a stare down

I don't want to see Cena, I'm burned out on him.
I don't want to see Orton, I'm burned out on him too.
Is it really so hard to understand that some people just don't want to see it because they're bored of both guys?
