If Cena's gonna face Taker at Mania, then of course he should win this. Also, Balor wouldn't won the chamber so it wouldn't help him much as well. Maybe he goes for IC Title?

That logic regarding Cena seems extremely backwards

Making him lose all matches wont

He needs to win some matches. Even if not Taker and if he's going to put someone else over at Mania or later on, he should get some solid wins. Of course it's Cena, beating him is a huge thing but imagine him starting to lose every single important match. One can't get much momentum from that win. Jericho is not a perfect example but still it kinda is an example.

Also Roman's gonna win this. For sure. Others would be bodies over there and Finn not being a body is cool. WWE would have something else with him. IC Title feud or something else with Club, who knows? He will be in a storyline and maybe he may turn heel and have a program against Cena at Wrestlemania. Who knows as I said. He lasted much and was in last four at Rumble so they have some things on mind for him.

Considering Mania is in April and the Chamber is Feb 25....they have more than enough time to build a Taker program with Cena....if they do it.

If they do Cena/Taker(and I really hope Taker stays retired; I just don't wanna see it anymore)...I'm assuming Taker would cost Cena the Chamber. It all goes back to that "battered veteran with a bad hip at the end of his run" that Cena made in the build to his match with Roman

Cena could lose every single match from now until WrestleMania and it wouldn't make a single bit of difference to his credibility.

Cena can lose every match but Balor loses one and that's all she wrote? Talk about backwards logic.

That's where we are in this Blue wins and losses talks these days.

Shit doesn't matter unless a promoter wants it to matter.....bout time every one realize that and shut it the fuck down.

I'm not protecting Cena in this case, I wrote that just for people saying Finn got buried.

All burial talk equating to losses should've been put to bed after Jinder ....point blank period.

Losses are not burying but if someone loses a lot or loses stupidly, it hurts credibility. The problem with Jinder was not only he was bad but also he lacked momentum, he had no credibility, he was losing to everybody then he suddenly become contender in a match where everbody says "what is he doing there?" then he won the title. In this case, Finn hasn't lost anything. Because top stars should not lose frequently and since he's a important name but not a top star it's no big deal.

And yet...he gained the most heat any heel has since Edge had to steal someone's girlfriend.

Nothing matters unless the storytellers want it too....don't overthink shit....this is all superfluous
