WWE News: Very Latest on a Potential Heel Turn for John Cena

Drake OzJun 6, 2018

It just wouldn’t be a normal day without talking about a potential John Cena heel turn, and yes, today is indeed another normal day.

For years now, WWE fans have been asking the million-dollar question: Will John Cena ever turn heel?

Some say hell no, others say it’ll happen when the time is right and some even say it’s happening right now during Cena’s current storyline with Kane. But, for those hoping and praying for a Cena heel turn, I may have to burst your bubble.

From WrestlingNewsWorld.com:

"

While I feel like I’ve answered this a million times, there are no plans for a full-fledged heel turn for John Cena. WWE is literally trying to split their audience in half for The Rock vs. Cena at Wrestlemania XXVIII yet many feel it’s inevitable that Rock will be babyface and Cena will be heel. 

"

I know that many of you are sick of hearing about a potential Cena heel turn and would actually rather watch the Bellas wrestle Eve and Kelly than read another article about it, so hopefully, this will end any speculation about Cena turning to the dark side.

Even if Cena is undoubtedly going to be the “villain” of his feud with The Rock, that doesn’t mean he has to go heel.

In fact, as Stephanie McMahon revealed in a recent interview, the plan is to market The Rock vs. Cena like the Twilight films. Yeah, seriously.

In other words, Team Bring It will be like Team Edward, and the Cenation will be like Team Jacob (though I may have those bad guy/good guy alignments screwed up because I have no idea what goes on those movies). I suppose that’s not really a bad idea because, like with anything else, there are always supporters of one side and supporters of another.

I just wouldn’t get my hopes up about Cena being treated as a full-blown heel anytime soon, like during his feud with The Rock.

We always speculate that he’s gonna be heel and that his feud with The Rock is “the perfect time to do it,” but WWE officials realize that they can have two huge stars feud without either of them going heel.

It’s worked in the recent past—think Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels or Taker vs. Triple H—and it could certainly work again with Cena vs. The Rock.

I'm now on Twitter and Formspring, so you can follow me or ask me anything wrestling-related!
