WWE Hall of Famer Jake Roberts has shared his thoughts on John Cena’s recent heel turn at WWE Elimination Chamber: Toronto, stating that while the twist was surprising, Cena never quite had the “oomph” that would make the turn impactful.

During the latest edition of his “The Snake Pit” podcast, Roberts expressed his belief that Cena’s character lacks the necessary intensity and edge to fully resonate as a heel. He said,

“Yeah, absolutely. Sure, why not? It’s time for it for a couple reasons. Number one, Cody’s your top babyface now. So you gotta get those other guys out of there, so he’s the only one. To turn him heel, he’s gonna wind up putting Cody over, which is what they want.”

When asked if he thought Cena had the “it” factor, Roberts replied with the following,

“I don’t think he did. I don’t feel it. Nothing personal. But I just always struggle with him. He just doesn’t have that magic in him, man. His interviews are okay, and his work was good, very good. But he didn’t have that oomph. He had to work really hard.”
Never thought i'd read Cena not having the IT factor or any magic in him.​

Such a Masterclass if you want to talk about Promos I hope all the young talent in WWE were watching this Segment with Cody and Cena. Right now we've got the Ramen on a Low Temperature and we are upping the levels as Weeks go on.
