For nearly two decades, WWE fans wondered what a genuinely evil John Cena would look like. The company repeatedly resisted pulling the trigger while Cena was its biggest babyface, despite the fact that there were fewer superstars than him getting bigger boos. But all that finally changed in 2025, when Cena stunned the wrestling world by turning heel alongside The Rock at Elimination Chamber.
