John Cena Explains Why ‘LOL Cena Wins’ Run Was Necessary WWE

Following the start of his farewell tour, John Cena has explained why the “LOL Cena Wins” run was necessary at the time.

John Cena was the top star and face of the WWE for a decades from the 2000s to the 2010s. Winning 16 world titles, “The Doctor of Thuganomics” became synonymous with the company and is still recognized for his contributions.

During his time at the top of the card, the running joke of “LOL Cena Wins” became popular among fans who were tired of Cena constantly winning main event matches.

In a new interview with Chris McPherson of Collider, John Cena was asked about the criticism to his main event run in WWE. He answered:

“One of the biggest hang-ups in the middle portion of my career was that, spoiler alert, John wins.”

“What people don’t understand is, I think now, maybe, as we begin to reflect back here on this last run of like, ‘Hey, man, I was in it for the long haul.”

“The way you make those losses impactful is sometimes you’ve got to win, and sometimes you’ve got to win a lot.”

“Any time you can pass energy on to somebody, that’s kind of the life cycle of the business.”

“You come in an unknown and, hopefully, you get the flywheel spinning, you create all this energy on your way out, you pay it forward, you pass it off.”

In a juxtaposition from his main event run, Cena has not won a singles matches since 2018. He will compete in the 2025 Men’s Royal Rumble Match at the titular event.
