Wrestling analyst wants John Cena to break major record in WWE

The Cenation Leader has won the World Championship 16 times throughout his WWE career. This ties him with the legendary Ric Flair for the most World Titles in professional wrestling history.

On a recent edition of the Cheap Heat podcast, Peter Rosenberg argued in favor of John Cena winning one more World Championship before retirement. The analyst emphasized the importance of validating WWE's claim of Cena as the "greatest of all time" by surpassing The Nature Boy's record, aligning this achievement with the company's corporate image.

"I would just like him to maybe win [a top match]... Don't you have to have him beat Flair's record? Just think about this for a second. Think about the corporate entity that this company has become. Why would he not? From a corporate standpoint... They've been already calling him the greatest of all time, make him the greatest of all time. Can you at least make it true? You have the choice. Give him 17 championships," Rosenberg said.
