John Cena Accused Of Killing Top WWE Faction’s Momentum: “Kind Of Fell Apart”

blank

John Cena was recently accused of killing a top WWE faction’s momentum.

Back on the June 7, 2010 episode of RAW, John Cena was attacked by The Nexus to kickstart their feud. The Cenation Leader even became an unwilling member of the villainous faction after losing to its’ leader, Wade Barrett, at that year’s Hell in a Cell on October 3rd.

However, the Nexus suffered a momentum-halting loss at SummerSlam against Team WWE (Cena, Bret Hart, John Morrison, R-Truth, Edge, Chris Jericho, and Daniel Bryan). Many felt it wasn’t the right decision, with Edge and Jericho revealing that The Nexus was supposed to win to position themselves as legitimate threats. In the end, Cena’s refusal to lose by changing the match finish crippled what could’ve been a massive push for the faction.

During an interview with TMZ’s Inside the Ring, former Nexus member David Otunga agreed with the vast majority of the general public that they should’ve won at SummerSlam. He also recalled his group being informed that Cena changed the ending a few hours before the event.

I think collectively, people agreed, like, we should have won at SummerSlam. Thatâ€s an infamous story. We were supposed to win at SummerSlam all day until about an hour or two before showtime. The finish was changed, and we knew who changed it, and they told us who changed it. It was John Cena,” Otunga shared.

The 45-year-old former WWE Superstar also remembered getting support and endorsement from Edge and Jericho, who wanted them to win, but Cena’s plan still went through.

We disagreed with it. And with the ending, we should have won, but Cena went over, and it completely cut the legs out from under us, and after that, Nexus kind of fell apart,” he added. [H/T WrestlingNewsCo]

John Cena Insisted on Losing To Brock Lesnar At WrestlePalooza

A decade ago, John Cena insisted on winning against The Nexus at SummerSlam, and it didn’t sit well with fans. 15 years later, he insisted on losing to Brock Lesnar at Wrestlepalooza, and the public is still puzzled by the match results, which was a squash.

However, it was made clear that The Cenation Leader was on his way out and just wanted to put over people, thus the decision was made.

Cena’s next match will be at Crown Jewel in Perth, Western Australia, against AJ Styles on October 11th. The upcoming premium live event is one of the five advertised appearances remaining for The Last Real Champion as his retirement is inching closer.
