WWE Raw July 1st, 2002/WWE SmackDown! July 4th, 2002 Watch Along

[Smart Marx]

Orton I'd say probably got the biggest boast from Evolution. Man gets hurt and was doing RNN gimmicks.

 

[Chris]

The Randy News Network

 

[Hoss]

What I think is a bit overlooked is that Batista is likely a bigger mainstream celebrity than John Cena

 

[Brandon Blaze]

Now that I figured that out, I can focus on this

 

[Smart Marx]

As far Hollywood goes, his Marvel status blows away anything Cena has done.

 

[Hoss]

Man even got a Smirnoff commercial right now

 

[Brandon Blaze]

Little did Orton know that they would be a team in less than a years time, hell like what 6 months time or so?

 

[Smart Marx]

Cena joining DC, though.

 

[Chris]

I'd say yeah but it's tricky with Marvel bc a lot of my friends that didn't watch wrestling just know him as Drax if they haven't seen any of his other movies

 

[Hoss]

Cena's biggest gig was probably like Bumblebee? Now he's gonna be in a DC show though

 

[Chris]

And most people tend to know who Cena is even if they've never seen him in anything

 

[Chris]

For whatever reason

 

[Hoss]

Cena been in the movie game longer, if nothing else. And has memes and name value.

 

[Hoss]

So it is definitely close

 

[Chris]

Oh yeah the meme
