    Rene Dupree vs John Cena on one of the 2004 Smackdowns is probably the first wrestling match I ever watched.

    I’d love to hear about Rene’s life inbetween WWE & Japan.
    As well as his career early in Japan. I recall being so sad when his time with WWE ended. Definitely felt like a guy you could build a brand around.

    As an adult who watched Rene in the WWE when I was 9-10 years old and the years moving forward it’s crazy all these years later at 29 to think that Rene was on Raw when he was 19 years old. That’s genuinely insane when I think about it - at that age I didn’t know shit about anything so the idea of being on the road 200+ days a year and I don’t even think you could rent a car even. Or to think how to understand how to manage money the way it works in the WWE at that age. It’s just wild to really think about Rene living that life at an age in the US where he would literally just have left high school and have genuinely zero knowledge or experience of anything in the real world and having those lessons come to you in this way.

    i loved this feud, imo it showed rene could’ve won a midcard title, not at the time because cena was on the rise, but he could’ve won it later that year or down the road eventually.

    Rene Dupree, I am huge fan since your WWE days. Kinda wish we could see you in WWE again. If not WWE, then perhaps AEW. WWE has lost much stardom since many of their releases. They have to keep bringing back Goldberg or Brock in order to lighten up the place and gain momentum. AEW sounds like a place where you could thrive even more. Miss the good old days of seeing you on Raw and SD. Feel sorry for what you had to go through in that hostile locker room back in 2004.

    Please pick up the topic at Great American Bash! Loving this trip down memory lane from this period with Rene. I’d love to hear what he experienced next.
    Also, at that time I too felt Rene made Cena. I recall thinking it was insane how a “newer” face like Rene’s could get Cena over like that. Usually it’s someone giving someone else a rub bc they’re a bigger star or whatever. Rene was on the same level or slightly below Cena I think by many’s standards. The Overall rating given to the wrestlers in the games sorta communicates that. But yea…Rene, at that period of his own career, made Cena. That’s impressive as hell.

    • @codyjohns6525
      @codyjohns6525 Год назад

      I thibk at that time i mentioned it earlier cena was white hot as a face with 75 80% momentun
      And rene had real heel heat from the fans probably even more so then the top heel on smackdown at the time JBL and that guy was fucking hated lol 1 of them had to take a L to elevate the other and cena never looked back
      Id like to think in a alternate universe during this feud Vince called for rene to go over and gr became what cena became as a face or he became something like a forerign MJF
      And cena went on to go overseas and make a name for himself without wwe and has an amazing podcast where he brings in a bunch of guys from the mid card of the early 2000s and hear all their crazy stories lol

    1:01:47 Completely agree the US title should change to country of origin for foreign winners.
    Although what is the real difference between Intercontinental title vs World as far as what the geography? Intercontinental seems to imply all the 7 continents so how is that any different from just saying "World"?
    That's up there with implementing a ranking system, like the games, or finally explaining why wrestling is the one "sport" without the ability to demand a review of the last play or you know at least have a governing body that stops a match from obvious interference. Who needs a briefcase when you could just ask the refs to watch the last mins of Raw or the PPV and reverse the decision because obvious cheating? In fact who would agree to a sport where the in ring referee is the only one that counts? Even boxing doesn't do that.
    Someone needs to shoot prank the WWE with trying to propose an IR sensor system to the ropes so as to warn the ref that someone else entered the ring illegally since the music, crowd reaction, and loud bang of a chair don't seem to.

    To be fair to Cena, the throw of the Eiffel Tower was actually class. That could easily have gone wrong. If you think about it, Cena had a decent gimmick, he was obviously a very good bodybuilder but wasn’t really marketed as a bodybuilder. I am somewhat of a fan of him personally because of his professional attitude. You can see why the boss trusted him. As for being hit in the bell end, that is extremely painful, I took an ice cold football there once whilst playing goalkeeper back in the day and oh man pain like nothing else. Anyway I enjoyed the topic conversation this week guys!

      If you listen to people discuss Cenas work ethic and attitude to do everything the company needed no questions asked of him it’s easy to see why he was the guy. Sure he sold a bunch of shit but the work ethic sets the dude apart

    Even as a 10 year old kimd watching smackdown i knew the winner of the cena vs rene feud would lead the winner to being a superstar
    Cause cena was white hot as a face and rene was getting booed just as much or more then the top heel on smackdown JBL, i dont remembere if it was before or after he won the world title from eddie but he was definitely top heel
    So even though rene in 2004 wasnt the undertaker or triple h with a hall of fame worthy career, that was the feud cena moved on from and never looked back
    So if no one else will say it i will rene dupree had a small hand in making john cena an international superstar

      Well from my fandom of her time in the WWE I was 9-14 years old. So she was just fine for me. I imagine most people understood at that point in time the female wrestlers weren’t there to be the technical workers but good or bad were there to be eye Candy so it came at no cost because fans knew what their role was at the time. Todays age of women’s wrestling is a different universe form her time.
