John Cena
The face of WWE, John Cena surely will cross lines with Roman Reigns down the road. John Cena is 38 years old and he has carried the top superstar tag for about 10 years now. Now it is the responsibility of WWE to find a suitable man to fill his spot once he retires. On analysing the booking of Reigns to date, it is easy for one to assume that he is the next Cena.
But to be in that spot, Reigns needs legitimacy. The crowd still has to believe in him. Like good ol’ Ric Flair said “To be the man, You got to beat the man”. So, Cena putting over Reigns will clearly give credibility to Reigns. Every top superstar from CM Punk, Daniel Bryan to Brock Lesnar have all gone through Cena. So, when Reigns wins, it gives him legitimacy as a main event star.
And that is what is Best for Business.
