John Cena might be the reason you continued to watch the WWE throughout the PG Era. He was the man who served as the organization’s glue throughout the transitional years when there weren’t many stars. But with his endearing personality, he held the company’s back and carried it until superstars like Roman reigns, Seth Rollins, and many others were built.
Cena was so dedicated to the organization, that even if Vince McMahon had commanded him to walk on the sea, he would have replied, “how many kilometers?” He consequently rose to the top of the sport’s popularity during these years. In particular, he outperformed athletes like Michael Phelps, LeBron James, and Kobe Bryant in 2014 to earn a record of the most number of Facebook followers!
