2. The Seed of a Major Heel Turn
Every time something really interesting begins to happen to John Cena, it’s a thought in the back of the head of a lot of fans if this is finally the time he turns heel? The idea is John Cena’s heel turn is massively unlikely, but for the sake of having fun, it’s always something to discuss.
What if Cena goes back on his word just once? At “Hell in a Cell”, Dolph Ziggler, Cesaro, or anyone accepts the US Open Challenge, but they finally defeat Cena clean. The new champion is in a stare down with Cena and everyone is expecting Cena to extend his hand and show respect as he always does. However this time, the victor puts out their hand, but Cena refuses to shake it. Cena leaves in a huff and he’s gone for two months.
It’s just a seed, but if Cena came back and was aggressive and began to do behind the back attacks, especially a big one for his return; John Cena could turn heel in a slow burn which leads to an official heel turn come Wrestlemania.
