Cena Got Squashed

[Captain Stud Muffin (BLM)]

Is their a long term story with this ?

I would hope so. Taker looked to be in great shape but he only wrestled about 3 mins doing all his sig spots

I would think this leads to a retirement match next year but that's the 2nd time Cena has gotten squashed like that

The way the story was done kind of called for it to play out this way but Cena of all people was the weirdest choice for it. Elias or Miz would have made sense as someone obnoxiously calling Yaker out every week.

[Mochi Lone Wolf]

Hard to tell where this is going because, the answer to your first question is no.

I’m cool with Cena, but him getting squashed by Taker and Rousey taking on the McMahons felt super cathartic for me.

Seeing Cena acting terrified then following it up by getting squashed in two minutes was crazy. Never would have imagined that in the Super Cena era.

[Sparkybob]

Taker probably was not ready to go for a full 15 minute match so a squash was needed. We saw with Wyatt when they did a similar build the match was not so hot. So they use a bigger star like Cena to take the hit.

It was the smartest way to go. Taker is too old and beat down to be having twenty minute matches anymore. He can make squash appearances at Mania for a few more years and fans will still eat it up. Taker gave enough to the business already. I’m ok with it.

I know, it was awesome. This whole build I wanted to see Cena get his ass beat for what a self-centered little shit he was and how much he was disrespecting Taker acting like he was owed the time of day then the moment comes and Taker terrifies him then effortlessly destroys him.

To be fair Bray / Taker was about as good as it possibly could have been given Bray twisted his ankle earlier in the day.

I wanna know why Cena was so terrified during the match. Wasn't he the one who kept saying Taker wasn't some washed-up old man and could still go if he really wanted to? Why was he acting so surprised when it turned out Taker actually wasn't some washed-up old man who could still go if he really wanted to?

I was stunned when Cena was flat out squashed. Nobody at my house could quite believe it

On Raw we'll get the standard "You haven't beaten me 13 times so it doesn't mean anything" promo from Cena.

Cena has had a horrible year

Like Im not complaining but it shocks me for how overpushed he's been, but then again Roman got humiliated tonight too... WWE is weird

True. But for better or worse, Cena can gather some heat for any match he is in compared to most guys who the WWE would want to take a quick L today.

[TWERKIN' MAGGLE]

From now till SummerSlam, Cena is going to apologize and ask Taker for another shot.

Yea pretty much

Cena never used to lose but now he's getting squashed at Mania (Against Taker)

We've been built to think Roman will overthrow Lesnar for the last 3 years and nope that isn't it either

[MolotovMocktail]

Can we get the heel turn now?

[Deleted]

Glad they went that direction because he needed to be.

As overpushed as Roman is, he seems to lose every so often. This place used to act like it saw Sasquatch whenever Cena would lose a match in his heyday.

And still argue about whether it was clean or not
