John Cena has done it all he's pretty much The GOAT Vince McMahon said it himself that John Cena is the GOAT And he Saved the WWE from going out of business after that Benoit Incident when parents were not letting there kids watching wrestling and where people are quitting to watch wrestling and John Cena is the Sacrifice for the WWE to stay afloat after that Benoit Incident they decided to go PG because that's what's best for business to clean there content and John Cena is the one who saved the WWE. And plus he made WWE back to Mainstream during the PG Era.
I agree with everything but Cena is not a HollyWood MegaStar yet. But I think he eventually will be if given the opportunities.
@@khursheedahmed4873 nah he's already a Hollywood MegaStar because he's been in Fast and furious 9 and Has his own Show Peacemaker and has been in DC universe and has been in suicide squad and many more movies.
He done it all in a scripted fight, you act like it was real fights and the outcome was not decided already. lmfao
@@fuadkattan6622 I know WWE is scripted I'm just saying he's done it all there is to do in the WWE and outside of the WWE
@@martinandriejoson861 And i'm just saying he has done all there is to do because the Directors decided that he should ''accomplish them''
John Cena IS WWE. There will never be anyone like him.
John cena bleeds wwe
They said the same thing about Hogan back in the day though man. 30 years from now….. you never know
@@JehBasquiatthat’s true but even if that does happen he would be once in a generation just like hulk rick and stone cold
John Cena will truly be missed when his wrestling days are over😢
He is already being Missed right now …
Only by children. Wwf had turned to.junk.
They are over😭
@@nonyemyendalebo547 they are not actually he's just part time
@@jalenkidd9044 wrestling once a year if that isn't really part time though can't hardly blame him he's making way more money acting without the physical abuse
I’ve always said John Cena is the Tom Brady of wrestling. We may not ever witness another career that could ever equal.
More like Lebron
The babe Ruth of base ball is super cena
Lowkey disrespectful towards Cena. There’s nobody that can compare to the man that John Cena is. John is a one of a kind person that can never be duplicated or compared to.
@@voidsnip3z674 Bro what? Cena isn't even the best wrestler of all time he's behind Austin, Rock, Hogan and others in my opinion but if you want to put him 4th i don't object. Brady plays a sport, comparing the two is retarded it's like comparing Tom Brady to Leonardo Dicaprio.. And frankly, Cena couldn't even get the whole crowd to cheer for him for most of the time he was on top.. Rock and Austin would have figured out a way to turn those boos to cheers, Cena never adapted.. part of that is just generational differences, but imo, you can't be the GOAT while not being able to get the whole crowd on your side (during your prime).. that 50/50 crowd reaction shit would have eaten Austin alive and he would have never tolerated it or let it happen in the first place. Austin and Rock never had half the crowd booing them while they were trying to get cheered when they were in their primes.. It happened to Rock, but that was because fans were mad that he was leaving WWE and he had already had a huge run on top.. Cena got booed very early into his main event run.. you can't even make the excuse that he got stale, this was happening almost immediately. Cena is incredible, i'd certainly put him way above people like Roman.. but being around for a long time doesn't make you better than Hulk Hogan, you are prob just too young to appreciate the previous generation.
@@waynetables6414 bro has more championships than everyone you just mentioned
I'll forever be grateful to have grown up watching John Cena and now that he's not active I've learnt to appreciate him even more
Facts
John Cena is really a true inspiration and truly one of the greatest wrestlers of all time. And my god, I can't believe that he was supposed to be fire during his rookie year, I can't imagine WWE without John Cena.
Its not hard. Its only TV.
@Blaine's Wasteland It is on TV. Entertainmemt. Actor. Not Priest, No Police Man, No Train Driver, No.Ship Captain. No Social Worker...see those occupations differ from icky Holly wood.
@@cjones3710 do it then, you go head and do it, become a worldwide superstar instead of sitting in yo mommas basement with a quad chin
how do you even measure who is the greatest when the fights are scripted?
@@fuadkattan6622 Well it's simple, you measure the in-ring skills, the promo skills, the charisma, the influence in the business, the matches, the feuds and at some point the accomplishments. But knowing who is the greatest wrestler of all time still subjective for the most part.
Roman got a long and I mean long way to go to even sniff the level that John Cena built. This was an amazing love letter to all us fans that grew up in the ruthless aggression era. Thank you my dude 🙏🏿
💯
As a cena fan I know he is not talented like cena coz roman's mic skills needs more work but I am never going to boo roman bcoz we cena fans also heard those cena sucks chants from previous gen fans so I am not going to boo roman he is not talented like cena but after 10 years he will come close to the level of cena.
@@johntitor7357 what a casual opinion, Ever since roman reigns started the "the tribal chief" gimmmick he´s been one of the if not the best on the mic
Nah roman ain't built for it he already taking less dates and nearly working a Brock schedule, cena was there day and night every week nearly for 10+ years
@@guccipotter3474 definitely he improved but compared to cena he is leagues below and there are many wrestlers which are better on mic like KO Seth etc.
Stephanie McMahon is the true goat for that she realized how much potential he had and triple h and Vince McMahon would have ruined the company in letting this man go 🤦🏽♂️
Wow I said the same ...kudos to Stephanie for giving cena a chance when the rest didn't believe in him...the company would forever be grateful..
hopefully John Cena wins his 17th world title and breaks Ric Flairs record , records were meant to be broken 🤘🏽
Watch vince make that bitch charlotte flair break the record
They should have Randy Orton Get to 16 World Titles then have he and John Cena Fight for a Vacated Title at WrestleMania for whom will get the 17th …
@@constablekennedy7705 great idea 💡
Randy Orton should win 17 because he is still full time in this companie and never leaves
WWE will make Charlotte Flair to break Ric's record I think but I want Cena to break that desperate oldie Ric's record
Excuse my language but this was fucking amazing. Love or hate cena you can’t say he isn’t a legend. I hope we get that 17th title win.
This is definitely how you do a career documentary 👏. Well done Superkick
This video is better than watching a "Ruthless Aggression" episode on the WWE Network. This was amazing content, and all we got here was fact. John Cena is one of the GOATs, probably the GOAT of wrestling. And really it doesn't matter how long wrestling or the WWE lives on, there will never be another John Cena (we'll never see another Cena). Sure, maybe in the future there may be a superstar that surpasses Cena in term of greatness, but will never do it the same way Cena did. Kind of like how in music there won't be another Michael Jackson, or in basketball there won't be another Michael Jordan, or in football (soccer) there won't be another Messi or Ronaldo. In wrestling, there will never ever be another John Cena. They say never say never, and that's true, but if I was ever to say never, that would be "there will be another superstar like John Cena". Thanks for the content, Superkicked Studio. Truly amazing work.
A devilish goat? Maybe he is you never know.
I guess u smoke crack.. this video was trash and long
Cena was on top for more than a decade which no other wrestler could make happen,along with 16 world champions, makes him the greatest of all times.
Lebron clears MJ
What a way to celebrate 20 years of the GOAT, John Cena
imagine bullying John Cena in school then going to work at your mediocre gas station job while you see him on a sold out ppv years later....
Underrated comment noice
fr tho
When I watched him in 2004, I knew how special he was to the company he became one of the main rising stars later that year and became the biggest rising star as soon as 2005 began. It’s safe to say that he became the most popular rising star during the turning point of the mid-2000s.
When he beat Big Show at WMXX, I knew he was going to be "the man". He even exceeded expectations
Cena is the GOAT. It's not an opinion, it's a fact. This man developed scoliosis from how hard he carried the company on his back for nearly a decade. He is a legitimate great wrestler and the best talker since Rock and Austin. It's refreshing to finally see him get the respect he finally deserves.
No your opinion is not a fact he's not the greatest stop being delusional
@@user-vq9ke1kw1x nah he is and it is a fact.
@@user-vq9ke1kw1x He is. Stop being delusional.
@@user-vq9ke1kw1x He's certainly ONE of the greatest but yeah I agree there are so many goats that you can't discount but there is nothing getting in the way of it: john cena is a fucking legend man and I'm gonna really miss him when he's gone
That’s Taker
That ending, "and when he leaves this Earth behind, forever", trying hard not to cry right now
same feeling bhai
😊
John Cena's US Champion arc was really amazing
By the end of this video I had tears in my eyes this guy made wwe here in India and also in regions like south west asia here in India those who don't watch wwe still knows about John Cena he is the most famous wrestler here and will always remain my favourite wwe wrestler of all time he is the reason why I started watching wwe.
Thank you GOAT Cena
Facts 💯
I can't lie, I grew up in the 2000s, and was one of the ones who hated the super Cena character after his dr of thugomnomics gimmick was dropped. but now wwe just isn't the same without Cena, he was def a huge part of my childhood and wwe was just on a whole nother level in those times, I remember in school almost everyone was talking about wwe and I bet a huge part of that mainstream success had to do with john cena.. now a days no one talks about wwe anymore, if you ask this current gen, almost everyone would say something like "what's wwe?"
Of course I started watching wrestling when I was one years old it was the undertaker versus Kane match but years later John Cena debuted when I was 5 years old man I got so excited for 5-year-old child to see that man on television I'm 25 years old now and he made a hell of a impact on my life as well getting to see him wrestle for 20 years I told somebody if John Cena leaves I'm not watching WWE again he is truly the G.O.A.T
smh
No lie if you ask my generation about wwe they’ll say “no because it’s fake, you do know it’s fake right?” It’s literally annoying that they don’t understand it’s practically a live tv show
John Cena is the GOAT for me. I was so emotionally connected to him throughout my childhood. He made my childhood awesome. There's never going to be another John Cena.
You have covered his career superbly brother🙌🏻
People don’t understand their was a point in time i only watched Monday night raw for John Cena.
@@jetoneshuford4405 omg same🤣
John Cena is literally my childhood inspiration; so much so intact that I’m in pro-wrestling myself. He’s literally a machine anywhere he goes. WWE isn’t the same without him.
Cena is the goat 🐐
True
🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
💯
One of them
Facts 💯
John Cena is the definition of you will miss me when I'm gone. A true GOAT 🙏🏻.
He is the guy who made wwe famous here in south asia he is the reason why wwe is famous in south west asia John Cena will forever remain my favourite wwe superstar of all time.
Thank you GOAT Cena
We got to watch Messi, John Cena, Lebron, Adam Sandler, Mayweather, J Cole and Kendrick, just a ton of legends that are widely regarded as one of, if not the best in their respective fields. We’re all lucky to have witnessed greatness.
I was 6 years old when Cena debuted.. and I came to know him from 2005 and till now I've been a fan. He changed me time to time from being a thuganomic, chain gang to big match John, man what a career..
#20yearsOfCena
Cena vs Aj was just absolutely amazing
Full career documentaries are my fave part of this channel. Well done!
Cena's Dr of Thuganomics gimmick was truly what got me first hooked into WWE back when I was like 10 years old lol I knew about WWE but was more casually into it. But this character got me obsessed with the show and is what really introduced me to WWE till i stopped watching in like 2014 lol
i met Cena once and he's really down to earth he's not like some celebrities that act high and mighty when fans approach him he was very friendly
where
What an awesome video man, was really fun. Keep up the good work
This was really well done. Thank you for putting together great content.
I was a half a year old when John cena debuted in WWE just proves John Cena is in a league of his own this man went through hell he came from nothing and became a freaking legend he carried a entire generation and two eras embodied ruthless aggression
Cena is truly a one of a kind wrestling star and it shows through how hard he's worked to get where he is, I'll miss the heck out of him when he finally hangs it up.
Cena is one of the GOATS
Gospel Truth Bro ……………… 🐐
Simply the best class of 2002.Cena,Batista,Orton and Lesnar.
True
Amazing, amazing editing.
This is a truly amazing video man. You should definitely create a Patreon dawg. I would 100% buy a membership.
John Cena met Tupac. Complete Legend!
a legend and a shitty thug thats all haha
Wow great video. Loved how long it was with all the correlating footage.
43 minutes?!?!?! SKS WITH THE HUGEEEE W great video bro
The pop from the crowd when he came back at the end of 2022 with Kevin owens against the blood line shows he is one of the greatest of all time
This is so good. Thanks
GREAT VIDEO! I love John Cena. I couldn’t stop crying during his promo on RAW.
One of the greatest wrestlers in the WWE of all time. Hustle, Loyalty, & Respect!!!!!!!!!
Watched all the way great video and very true John cena is the goat
Please keep it up with the 2011-2015 hip hop instrumentals playing during your videos. They add sooo much
Thank you for this video, we appreciate it! John Cena been my favorite since day1, I was borin in 96. Respectfully it will be dope since you brought up Lashsley, do a video on him, its crazy how he came back to WWE all these years later and came back and got a belt!
We hated him so bad in the early 2010's that we kinda ignored how cool of a guy he really is. Honestly, I miss him now.
he got memed to hell, but also now ppl hate him because he apologized to china over some hollywood shit, I forgot what it was
Great video! Would be nice to have one for Stone Cold and The Rock aswell
Bro. Phenomenal video. This is the content that makes RUclips worthwhile sometimes.
Love your content this is why I subscribed wow
10 roman can't replace cena bcz cena is different breed!!!
I don’t think there will ever be someone like John Cena, I have to meet this man one day
Great video thanks for sharing!
great video mate ...........keep up the work
1. Rock 🐐
2. Stone Cold🐐
3. Cena 🐐
4. Undertaker🐐
5.HBK 🐐
No only John Cena only goat
People hated him sooo much until they finally realized, they actually don't. Don't hate someone just because everyone else seems to be doing it. Gotta give credit where credit is due.
Only american and u.k adults hated him. Rest of the world he’s by far the most beloved wrestler ever
Great video, really good
And with that, you got yourself a new subscriber. Thanks and looking forward to new contents for ya!
truly amazing work! well done!
Unpopular opinion: Cena's best year was in 2015 when he was U.S. champion when the U.S. title was at its peak in prestige. Had great matches with Owens, Rollins, Zayn, Cesaro, and others with the U.S. Open Challenges every Monday on Raw (which I missed). Best year impact-wise.
That was a great year. Since I'm a kid I always liked the US title until it went to wwe and they shit on it until Cena won it and made it significant again thank God. Now he should do it with the intercontinental belt. Another use to be great belt that's pointless now
Beautiful video
Can we all thank to him(youtuber) for explaining as best as one could possible do....he surely had to went through so many documents wikies,biography searches...etc..thanks for doing such a good work .. hope you'll grow more👏..!
What else can be said about this legend? John Cena has done it all in this business and has done so much for the world, it’s absolutely amazing to see. Regardless whether you love him or hate him for whatever reasons, we should be grateful to have this man exist at all. Life wouldn’t be the same without him to be honest. I’ll forever love John Cena until the day I die. Thank you Cena.❤️🥲
Legend? We watched the same old stale gimmick right
@@Marcus_Kramer He's a legend, like it or not.
@@andraiy644 ? Kane randy Orton undertaker Umaga those are legends
@@Marcus_Kramer So what ? Just because they are legends doesn't mean John Cena isn't a legend. You can't tell me that Kane, Randy Orton and Umaga are legends and John Cena isn't lmfao.
@@Marcus_Kramer get off RUclips Kid With all that Hating🤡
*some of the most iconic catch phrases in WWE came from Cena and Rock.*
John cena is a def of “UNDERSTANDING THE ASSIGNMENT “ ✅
Greatest Ever. What a Vid man
Beautiful video. I loved it
This is Art 🖐🏻👀
This is going to be awesome
Wow very well put together.
❤. Great video man. Can't help but love Cena.
I was the biggest Dr. of Thuganomics fan when I was about 12-13. Quit watching around '06-'07 I believe & ended up going to a show in my 20's & popped hard for him even though I didn't care for him all that much. Dude was a big part of my childhood & I respect the hell out of him even if he got boring.
Good documentary Superkick. 20 years from now you will be doing another documentary but with Theory.
This was dope !
Loved this! Love this man!
Cant wait for that 17th record title!!!!!
That was a fantastic review of John Cena’s career!! I’m 40 years old and will always be most entertained by the doctor of thuganomics and you explain the reasons why over time he has to change his character,Cena 100% is up there with hogan,Austin,Rock,Cena,it goes in that order fact 👍
20 years of the goat John cena🔥🔥🔥🔥
Brilliant. Thank you.
Super awesome content man! Should do other sports 👍🏼
I was amongst whom hated him throughout my teenage from 2005 to 2015. Then, started respected him and now Missing him.
Amazing career👏
I don't get why people used to hate him??? I don't understand??
Why??? Any reason??
@@ChesswithPramit coz i loved heels jericho edge orton etc and he used to win every time like a Superman
@@mukkumania hehe yeah good point but those days were really fun
I loved Orton, edge superv heel personality in the ring as well hehe.....
Wish cena can see this video and appreciate the amount of effort and details you put into it. He is a true legend but most importantly a wonderful and humble human being who deserved everything he achieved. Saw him before at a live event but wish I could have got his autograph and a pic with him
Great video
For me he was the gateway, he was the hero, he is the global wwe superstar, he was consistency, the icon the role model to follow, someone you can cheer your heart out even you don’t know the in’s and out’s of pro wrestling, the guy with whom we grown up , for me and my generation he was is and always will remain the greatest of all time.
The marine cena built hella different back in 2006🔥 dam i miss ruthless aggression
We had the best video games at that time too🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great synopsis man!
THE CHAMP IS HERE
Love your vids superkick and cena is my favorite of all time like you
Great video! Thank you!
Perhaps the greatest single run out of any WWE superstar, it was a thrill to watch him work his way to the top in 2004 SmackDown but now to see the impact he left in game 20 years later is incredible.
This is a great documentary 🙏🏽
Never liked a video until today I grew up watching John and you just made a full ass re cap of alot of things I watched John go through !
Cena will go down as a modern day Bruno Sammartino. He was WWE for whole generation of fans, and will the standard by which future hall of famers are measured.
I watched the whole video and I'm kinda crying. Cena's "Never give up" messege will always peep in my brain.
W vid my guy
This is very detailed explanation 🥂
He is one of the greatest wrestlers of all time! Really underrated in terms of in ring skills. He has had incredible matches and promo but it is unfair that he was truly never appreciated for his ring skills until his iconic 2015 US title. He showed why he was the GOAT having classic matches almost every week.
THE TIME IS NOW!
