John Cena represented the WWE for over a decade as its face and portrayed the ultimate good guy character. He fought against the odds, respected most of his opponents, and preached ‘Hustle, Loyalty, and Respect’.

With time, Cena became the ultimate baby face in pro wrestling and one of its biggest stars. However, Cena’s early days in WWE were quite opposite to what he would later represent. Instead of a humble champion, Cena had a rapper gimmick where he would regularly insult his opponents.

Back then, he would come out as the ‘Doctor of Thuganomics’ rapping insulting lyrics about his opponents. After an initial heel turn with this new gimmick, Cena turned face but continued to be absolutely savage on the mic.

He had some memorable rap battles with Kurt Angle and Big Show during his gimmick as a rapper. There was a time when once he insulted Brock Lesnar’s wife Sable during a segment on SmackDown in his typical fashion.

He would take trash talking to the next level, leaving his rivals speechless most of the times. The rapper gimmick took Cena to a prime spot in WWE.

In late 2003, Cena had just turned face and began targeting the bad guys. After helping Team Angle pick up a win over Team Lesnar at Survivor Series, Cena made his way to the ring on SmackDown to confront Vince McMahon, who was standing in the ring with Sable.

The two had been in an on-screen relation during this time. McMahon had defeated The Undertaker at Survivor Series and bragged how he was untouchable, a lyric in Cena’s entrance theme at that time. This led to Cena coming out and laying it out on McMahon and Sable.

He first took on Vince and said only Cena was untouchable and not him. He then directed his attention towards Sable and said, “She’s only with you for the money homes. When she’s done stealing from you she comes to tickle my funny bone.” Cena then told McMahon, “You’re good for one thing.. She taught you how to s**k.”

Cena hardly held back, no matter who he was taking down while he had the mic in his hand. Even with Vince McMahon in the ring, the 16-time world champion had no qualms about coming up with such brutal insults for Sable had begun dating Lesnar in the same year.
