#1 He could put over Braun Strowman at Royal Rumble 2019

Cena has put over many superstars over the years

Love him or hate him, you got to admit and admire the number of superstars John Cena has put over in his career. Be it the likes of Edge, Randy Orton, the 'Attitude Era' superstars or the likes of AJ Styles, Kevin Owens, Daniel Bryan and even a returning Brock Lesnar in 2014, remember the squash match at Summerslam 2014, Cena has bumped like a champ and has put over all of them.

With Braun Strowman being involved in a temporary feud with Baron Corbin, John Cena may be WWE's best bet to defeat Lesnar and win the Universal Championship, and then Strowman could go onto win the title at Royal Rumble 2019 in an epic clash with John Cena. And yet again, Cena could do what he has been doing all these years, putting over superstars.
