D’More Drop: It is time to talk about the last year of John Cena

D’Arere Drop is a weekly guest column on written by Scott d’amore, which is Canadian professional wrestling promoter, executive producer, and former coach and wrestler who is famous for his long role with TNA/Impact Wresting, where he held the position of head of creativity. D’amore is the current owner of the leading Canadian upgrade Maple Lev Pro wrestling.

It seems that “the last weekend was great for the pro -wrestling” can be the first line in almost every column, but last Saturday was the last day/huge night to work.

AEW presented a payment for each show in Toronto and then launched WWE Espn era with Wrestlepalooza in Indianapolis, Indiana.

Every Saturday, I was in Toronto – and what happened is great.

Angman Adam page won the Kyle Fletcher’s global title, every goal can be targeted by Bokerer.

The match was great, Hangman won a strong victory for every offer to start his new referee, and only 26-year-old Kyle Fletcher-as AEW was very eager to remind us-the performance of stars.

What I have emerged is the extent of the completion of everything. This was not a shock result – I don’t know whether anyone really expected to drop Hangman to drop the belt – but it is about seeing a young talent that rises to this occasion under the strongest lights. I have worked with Kyle in the past – he is a great person with incredible talent, and he has now stressed his stars.

We also discussed that they might be last week, AEW started paying for each offer with Adam Kobland and Christian with FTR.

Everyone knows that Adam and Jay (Christian) is closer to many brothers, and this is also true that Adam took the FTR – Dax Harwood (David Michael Harwood) and Cash Wheleer (Daniel Marshall Wheeler) – under his wings.

They did not work hard for each other – they worked well together. It was super heat even to start paying for each offer.

Then I entered a realistic house of Adam-and the place went crazy. The pop that I got was huge and looked like a million dollars. That was a really wonderful and distinctive moment, one of those things that people will remember to get out of everything.

In the event of a shock, AEEW put the women’s belt on Chris Statland, which was tied to be a huge star for many years. So it will be interesting to see where things go from here with their reign and what they do with Toni Storm, which is a talent of generations and cannot be more than that.

This, in addition to announcing last night that AEW presents the headlines of the women’s signs team, confirms the vitality of the woman’s scene in AEW.

Since the beginning of this weekly column, she called for “waiting and seeing” and “giving WWE time to tell their stories” to judge John Cena’s last year as a supporter. I am standing next to everything I said this year – John’s work was, regardless of what he was asked to do, wonderful.

48 years old. He has done an incredible job, including his best match in more than a decade against Cody Rhodes in Samarlam. It was much better than anyone could ask him realistically than a 50 -year -old child.

However, with five games, and who knows, perhaps only three games of this retirement year, it seems certainly that the farewell round we did not hope.

There were some great moments – he and Jey Uso as the last two Royal Rumble, shocking heel rotation, some heel programs, acting skills that show that it is torn around the treatment of fans very badly, and the Summerslam match – but there was a lot that did not strike. I am not just talking about the heel turn that was abandoned in a comfortable line during the promotional show.

I understand that the fans are distressed by the way John was crushed by John Lisnar last Saturday. It was a repeat close to the match he spent a decade ago, but that match held Brock where Monster Cena needed slaughter. This unilateral beating, on the other hand, did nothing for Cena.

Now, there is something that can always be said because there are always formula matches. In “real” martial boxing and sports, you get one -side wins all the time, even in huge battles from 50 to 50, which can work in wrestling.

I do not see what an easy victory on Saturday over Brock that he could have couldn’t do without using one of the few John Cena matches that we left.

I thought Seth Rollins, Becky Lynch versus CM Punk and AJ Lee were completely booked.

AJ looked amazing, especially given that she was outside a decade.

Bronson Reed has always been reserved “Jonah” for me) and Bron Peter has been strongly reserved since April and they really fill the role of monsters.

Both can be believed in these roles – it only works at every level. I really enjoy what they are doing, alongside Paul Hyman.

I love AJ styles personally, professionally, I will always say that the man walks on the water. I just don’t see why John Cena Vs. Styles- especially in the match created by a tweet-is what anyone wants in one of the final Cena matches.

It will be an upscale match, no doubt.

But … why now?

IYO Sky had already had half a scale of classics this year, and had a “other night match” for WWE for women against Stephanie Fawgher in Wrestlepalooza.

Regarding absolute consistency in getting the best matches on the cards that are always loaded, I can’t think of anyone – a woman or man – do what Sky is doing in 2025.

It is amazing.

Vaquer clearly has all the capabilities in the world … and WWE is very aware of it.

Winning a world title does not make you a guaranteed star or major addresses these days, and the new hero does a work to do it. But she has not yet made a mistake since joining “Raw” in April.

In one of my first uncovered, I wrote that Jey USO was to win the WWE World Championship in Wrestlemania or would be stuck as B+ to forever.

He beat Gunter in “obsession”, but his referee ended in 52 days.

Seth Rollins is already in 54 days as a hero and count.

Nobody can take the fact that Ji was the world champion away from him, but I can only feel that he has a lot to give WWE what he seems to be currently.

Good at Andreas Hill from ESPN for his invitations how he saw him-giving the first ESPN offer from WWE, WrestlePalooza, C degree.

I don’t understand why that was also controversial.

Does anyone really think that wrestlepalooza was as good like a two -day wonderful Summerslam? That was “A”, not wrestlepalooza, the fun as it was, near this level.

Is not “c” the degree of success anyway?

As a child who was more intelligent in the streets, I was getting out of the exams with my “C” grades just as I was Ric Flair arrived at Bas American Bas ’85!

Follow -up from this thought: WWE did not a bad anal throughout the year. Including AAA, NXT, two -day obsession and Summerslams, they did 16 Ple in 2025 and count. This in itself is impressive.

It is launched from the super cards after a super card at a rate of no other company at all.

Yes, WWE has a list of very talented performance artists-as the fans on “WWE Unreal”-a small army of contestants, writers and match agents, but there is no promotion- never! This is expected to produce a lot at an uncompromising pace.

It is very difficult to raise the attention of fans every three weeks, and the WWE Creative Team and talent to fulfill this question very well.

At TNA SlammivesAry 2020, we have pushed the idea of ​​great surprises to pay payments for each offer. The fans were wondering about the recently released WWE Stars. We delivered – the good brothers, Eric Young, EC3 and Heath Slater were signed, the motoc Machine defender returned and Rich Swan returned.

But there is a cost of promising surprises. The moment people tell people to expect one, it cannot reach difficulty when that happens. Paul Hyman appeared with Brock Lesnar would be a much greater shock if the fans were not already prepared to wait for a surprise.

It was part of the disappointment with Wrestlepalooza that it was considered a proximity offer to Wrestlemania, but with just a few weeks of construction, it was always difficult to meet these expectations. When WWE added the “next surprises” line, raised the tape higher.

There was a major discussion on Twitter this week about Deathmatches- Ultra-Burn Matters that involve weapons and crazy spots.

I have an accurate point of view here. A long time in wrestling: red makes green.

She was a chic – his original uncle, SABO – was a huge lot because he was known to suffer from bloody matches. Abdullah Al -Jazzar used thorns on his foreheads 40 years ago. Freddy Blasi did a lot of blood he was called a vampire.

I will not bury death buses, if the phrase is excused. I think it can be done well and stories. However, at the same time, just like any type of matches can lack stories and be very bad, and this is also true in the death of death.

WWE is being praised because of its production in Arena-to the extent that we can take as a Muslim in these offers.

Wrestlepalooza looked incredible on TV.

Likewise, I was every day, and the crew had only hours to prepare this square.

They were wandering even literally a few minutes before opening the doors to allow the fans to enter (remember that it was early presentation). It was amazing to see him – what a team.

MJF is the talent of generations. Just take a look at what he did last week. Friday night, September 19, walked to Arena México at the 92nd anniversary exhibition in CMLL in Mexico City. The CMLL World Light Heavyweight Championship has put on the line against MíSTICO in a title match against MASK – lost.

Then, less than 24 hours later, at ALL OUT in ScotiaBank Arena in Toronto, Mark Bresco struggled at the Battle of Wahshi Street. Two nights, two are completely different, and he honored each time.

And do not harm him a little to lose twice within 24 hours. In fact, he came out of both games with more heat than he entered. Few can do so.

BRISCOE had a great victory in a violent match against MJF in AEW Out very interesting. I am excited to see how he can benefit from this.

Of course, I saw a tweet about a desire to confront the TNA Nic Nemeth-called WWE Dolph Zigler-at MAPLE LEAF Pro-Wrestling.

Yes, let’s do that!

MAPLE Leaf Pro-Wresting Revenue on October 27 at the New Age Experience Center, Toronto, by Rina Rumble-a major event in favor of Reina, a non-profit organization devoted to supporting individuals with development disabilities.

I can confirm that WWE Legends Matt Hardy, Carlito, AEW Star Colt Cabana and Lucha Sensation Microman, and SweGning Mlp Canadian Canadian Canadian Gisele Shaw have already signed the show.

This will be another “Digital House Show”, where we will put the full event on our YouTube channel shortly after the show.
