Don't believe the naysayers, Cena can go in the ring.

Here's another one that the Cena detractors will argue against. Contrary to what you've probably heard, John Cena has more than just "five moves of doom" in his arsenal. While his ring work hasn't always been as good as it is today, he's never been absolutely terrible in the ring.
Cena is a fantastic in-ring storyteller. It starts with his ability to incorporate the proper facial expressions, down to his timing and maneuver execution.

Female superstar says she inspired John Cena turning heel HERE
John Cena is a really good in-ring performer. Just, for some reason, someone decided one day to start this nonsense about his lack of skill in the ring. Don't take my word for it, but I'd also encourage you to not take some of the others words for it either.
Just watch his work, watch him execute, watch his selling work and as I mentioned, watch his facial expressions and how he tells a story, using his body. I think you'll have to agree that Cena is a pretty good wrestler, despite what you've heard.

Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
