| You know who Cena in his "Everythings a joke, I'll keep smiling no matter what" attitude reminds me of?
The Rock's original persona of Rocky Maivia. The clean cut, always smiling good guy.
And the fans chant "Die Rocky, Die"
It's stupidity by WWE in telling fans who they should and shouldn't be booing. The fans tell you who they want to see, so give the people what they want and they will give you what you want.

It seemed to me that the end of WM27 was a big build for WM28.'"
Completely agree, the whole match was a damp squib anyway. With Del Rio being the Rumble winner, the WHC match should have been top of the card.
I wasn't that impressed with the card to be honest. I thought the best showing came from Cody Rhodes.

Everyone knows that the second a face starts to get real heat a heel turn is the only option (Unless he really saves a baby from a fire or something similar) as the heat is only going to get bigger.
Vince must know this so all I can think is that greed is stopping it happening.

From what I've read that's the case mate - despite the boos he still sells way more merch then anyone else in the company, is still the face of the WWE, and prob still the most important cog in their machine in terms of global appeal, charity organisations (e.g. he does huge amounts of stuff for Make-a-Wish, which he deserves a lot of credit for), promotion of the company through interviews, chat shows etc.
It's a shame cos Cena is clearly a super-nice guy (you never hear a bad word about him from anyone inc fans and other wrestlers who've had contact with him), and really the boos aren't his fault - it's the material that's the problem IMO. People claim that he gets booed because of his poor wrestling but that's rubbish IMO, guys like Hogan and Warrior were poor in the ring (as was Goldberg unless carried by someone great), but none of these 3 got booed. For me it's the lame promos and kiddie-orientated character/merch that's the problem with Cena, he just doesn't appeal to adults like he did 7 or 8 years ago. And the problem with that in areans is us adults can very easily drown out kids' cheers for him with boos.

Vince may well regret that ideal as some will turn their back on the WWE if they feel they have started to be ignored.
The second you have a face getting real heat and still no turn you are asking for trouble if you ask me.
