John Cena Names Most Underrated WWE Superstar of All Time

John Cena is arguably one of the greatest WWE Superstars of all time. A certified future Hall of Famer, the Champ’s two-decade run has reached heights no one would have expected when he entered the squared circle as the Doctor of Thuganomics in the early 2000s.

Having won 16 World Championships, alongside a CV of accolades that any WWE Superstar would dream of having, the leader of the Cenation is well-placed when it comes to discussing all things sports entertainment. Taking to a specific episode of A&E’s WWE Legends Biography, Cena revealed who he believes to be the most underrated WWE Superstar of all time.

Having thrived as a face for the majority of his career, John Cena’s recent descension to the dark side means he has the scope to discuss all aspects of the WWE, having experienced everything there is to offer in the company. A fountain of knowledge, a man who was once on the cusp of being fired knows the hardships that wrestlers have to endure to make it to the top. Relating with one of his former dance partners, Cena revealed that he believes The Miz to be WWE’s most underrated wrestler.

John Cena’s Opinion on The Miz

The A-lister admires another A-lister

From initially being the most hated guy in the entire locker room when he made his full-time debut in WWE in 2006 following a stint on the reality TV scene, over the years, the Cleveland, Ohio native earned the trust and respect of his peers. One of WWE’s finest competitors to have won the Intercontinental Championship, The Miz’s career revival from outcast to WrestleMania main eventer is honourable.

Having faced Cena at WrestleMania 27 in the main event, the Miz performed the majority of the match with a concussion. Earning himself the respect of everyone backstage for powering through, it is this same determination that saw The Miz become WWE’s first-ever two-time Grand Slam Champion. A WWE Superstar who has thrived as both a good guy and a bad guy, he is very similar to Cena in that regard. Having been blessed with his own WWE Legends episode, the leader of the Cenation revealed his opinion on the A-lister.

John Cena’s Miz-Like Heel Turn

The Champ has done the unthinkable

Having shown love for one WWE heel, Cena will be hoping he can replicate the Miz’s success as he embarks on a run as a bad guy. Revealing in 2024 that 2025 would be his final in-ring year, Cena made it his mission on the Road to WrestleMania to get himself a World Championship match and one final Mania main event match.

Missing out in the Royal Rumble, the Elimination Chamber was the Champ’s final hope of reaching the Showcase of the Immortals. Earning himself the victory thanks to Seth Rollins, the leader of the Cenation left Toronto with an Undisputed WWE Championship match with Cody Rhodes booked for WrestleMania 41. However, he didn’t just leave with a match, he left with a whole new character.

As Rhodes rejected The Rock’s advances to become a corporate champion, it was revealed in a jaw-dropping moment that Cena had sided with The Rock, selling his soul in the process and turning heel. Performing a beatdown of the ages alongside the Final Boss and Travis Scott, it was a segment that has already gone down in history. Still set to face the American Nightmare on the Grandest Stage of them All, it will now be WWE’s biggest heel against the company’s greatest babyface, with a record-breaking 17th World Championship on the line for Cena in Las Vegas.
