Oct 1st, 2012

The official WWE website is no longer advertising John Cena for Raw tomorrow at the Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. He appeared with his arm in a sling on last week’s show after undergoing surgery on Sept. 18 to remove bone chips in his elbow. The prognosis for his recovery was announced as six to eight weeks.

WWE Superstars fight through pain! - John Cena

WWE Superstars fight through pain! - John Cena

Following Night of Champions, the WWE Universe was shocked to learn that John Cena had to undergo an unexpected surgery to have bone chips removed from his right elbow. The Cenation’s recovery time following the procedure was estimated between four to six weeks, though he could be ready to compete at Hell in a Cell.

The operation performed on Cena’s elbow, despite proving to be more complicated than at first believed, is actually common with professional athletes, and Dr. James Andrews is the best sports-related surgeon in the world. Yet that does not take away from the fact that for months, Cena competed injured. The Cenation Leader is known for his refusal to back down, and he fought through the injury for some time before finally agreeing to  the procedure.

WWE Superstars are among the finest athletes in the world, but they are still human. Their hard work and dedication can sometimes take its toll, and in an environment filled with high-octane competition, injuries do occur. Some are minor while others are career-threatening, but even injured, WWE Superstars always try to battle through the pain … or, at the very least, finish their match.

They try, but they don’t always succeed, especially when the injury is severe. At Survivor Series 2011, Sin Cara suffered a patella tendon rupture that resulted in his immediate removal from a Traditional Survivor Series Elimination Tag Team Match, and keeping him out of action for nearly six months.


*The other WWE Superstars that fight through pain is, Shawn Micheals, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Triple H, Cowboy Bob Orton  and Randy Orton. You can check out that on: http://www.wwe.com/classics/superstars-competing-with-injuries-26055356

WWE Monday Night RAW Results: 9/24/2012

WWE Monday Night RAW Results: 9/24/2012 in ALBANY, NY

CM Punk interrupted John Cena's address to the WWE Universe and attacked Mick Foley

Arm sling and all, John Cena kept his word and made his way to the Times Union Center for Monday Night Raw. The Cenation leader was as stoic as ever (if not quite as jovial) when he solenly apologized to Chad Patton and Brad Maddox for their treatment at the hands of WWE Champion CM Punk, who, Cena said, had devolved in record time into a "monkey frakkin' son of a bee sting" who needed a (preferably physical) lesson from Cena. And while Cena could not guarantee a full recovery, he did issue one promise to the WWE Universe: he would walk into Hell in a Cell, and he would do so to fight.

Cena's overture was interrupted, however, by the one-man cult of personality himself. Sauntering to the ring in his blue hoodie with Heyman holding the WWE Title aloft behind him, The Second City Saint cut right to the chase regarding Cena's comments and Mick Foley's earlier plea to name the Cenation leader his No. 1 contender at Hell in a Cell.

"You shouldn't be a WWE Superstar, you should be a politician," sneered Punk, labeling the Cenation leader's comments as "character assassination." "There's one CM Punk, there always has been," sneered The Second City Saint. "It's the same one who beat you over a year ago." Punk threw out the statistics of his title reign again, which he promised would not end "at the hand of a one-armed man."

"Why don't you shut up and face me at Hell in a Cell?" Cena responded simply.

It took Punk all of five seconds to decline the challenge. And it wasn't because of Cena's surgery, or because of previous losses to The Second City Saint, but because of the beating that Punk planned to lay on Cena. Punk, he explained, was going to turn his back for five seconds, and if Cena was still there when he turned around, "I'm gonna hurt you so bad it's gonna make the last eight days look like a picnic at the beach."

Punk did indeed turn around, but what he didn't expect was the trick that Cena had in his back pocket: a lead pipe that he used to clobber the champion in the gut. "Real men wear pink," boomed Cena, before adding a final quip: "Now that's what I call a pipe bomb!"

The drama didn't end there, though. As the wounded champion hobbled back to the locker room area, he stumbled upon the last person he surely wanted to see: Mick Foley. As The Hardcore Legend affixed Punk with a disappointed glare, Punk's furstration got the better of him and he hit the three-time WWE Champion with a kick to the gut that sent Foley to his knees. Punk began to walk away but soon stopped in his tracks, seemingly ready to deliver one final quip to the fallen Foley.

"You know ..." Punk began, before stopping dead in his tracks. A look of fear overcame The Second City Saint as the camera turned to reveal a Superstar had come to the aid of the downed legend: Ryback. And he looked hungry.

VIDEO: John Cena talks about his partnership with Susan G. Komen for the Cure

VIDEO: John Cena talks about his partnership with Susan G. Komen for the Cure

Watch Video Below:

John Cena recently debuted his new Susan G. Komen–inspired gear to help spread the message that WWE is committed to helping fight breast cancer. It’s a cause that’s important to the 10-time WWE Champion, as he encouraged WWE to kick off the campaign.

“Personally, I think we all — or 99.9 percent of us — have a story or some sort of relationship with this disease,” Cena said before debuting his gear at Night of Champions. “The last time we were in TD Garden in March, I found out my brother’s struggle with brain cancer was a positive one. The reason it was a positive one was because of early detection. And Susan G. Komen for a Cure is about early detection for breast cancer.”

Cena was inspired by other professional athletes who don pink in support of breast cancer, such as players from the NFL, MLB, the NBA and the PGA Tour.

“Although they have the uniforms and they wear them as an alternate scheme, I really thought it would be cool for us to wear something because we sell our uniforms,” he explained. “So it’s not only a good way to promote the message of awareness, but a great way to raise money for the charity at the same time.”

From now until the end of October, which is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Cena will wear his new pink and black gear, which is available exclusively at WWEShop.com and at WWE Live Events. WWE will donate 100 percent of the profits from the hats, T-shirts, headbands and wristbands to Susan G. Komen for the Cure.

“Make sure you get up on the latest and help us all Rise Above Cancer,” Cena encouraged the WWE Universe.

More about Susan G. Komen for the Cure

Susan G. Komen for the Cure began in 1982 with a single grant for $28,000. Today, it is the world’s largest nonprofit funder of breast cancer research and community outreach programs, having invested nearly $2 billion in research and life-saving community programs. Komen manages more than 500 active research grants totaling nearly $300 million.

The Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure Series, with nearly 150 signature events on five continents, involves more than 1.7 million participants annually and has raised more than $1.4 billion (as of 2010) while educating the public and honoring those affected by breast cancer.

Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and the second leading cause of cancer-related death among women in the United States. Every 74 seconds, somewhere in the world, someone dies from breast cancer. There are 2.9 million breast cancer survivors in the United States today. For more information about Susan G. Komen for the Cure, breast health or breast cancer, visit komen.org/wwe or call   1-877 GO KOMEN      .

Susan G. Komen Snapshot of Achievements:

Susan G. Komen for the Cure has changed how the world talks about and treats breast cancer (In 1982, people wouldn’t even say the words “breast cancer” aloud).

A Komen grant has touched every major breast cancer breakthrough of the past 29 years.

Funding for discoveries in genetics and biology has evolved into personalized, less invasive treatments for what was once a “one-treatment-fits-all” disease.

Komen’s investments have helped drive down breast cancer mortality rates by 33 percent since 1991.The five-year relative survival rate for early stage breast cancer (cancer that has not spread beyond the breast) is now99 percent compared to 74 percent in 1982.

Komen is the only breast cancer organization attacking the disease on all fronts: in research, community outreach, education, advocacy and global work.

WWE: John Cena undergoes arm surgery

WWE: John Cena undergoes arm surgery

9/18/12, 5:15 p.m. Update

WWE.com has learned John Cena had surgery to remove bone chips in his right elbow today. Dr. Andrews removed several pieces of bone cartilage from Cena's elbow through a scope.

“He had begun to lose motion in his arm, and it had been locking up,” Andrews said. “I performed an orthoscopic procedure on his elbow and took out a bunch of spurs. Everything went really well.” Andrews described the procedure as “straight-forward” despite Cena’s “big, old arm.”

“Cena’s rehab will start on Monday with trying to improve his range of motion and getting the swelling down,” Andrews explained.

Cena is expected to recover in two to three weeks. An update on his recovery time is expected Thursday when he is reevaluated. As more information comes available, WWE.com will inform the WWE Universe.

LATEST UPDATE: 9/18/12, 5:45 p.m.

John Cena addressed the Cenation following surgery Tuesday afternoon. Cena tweeted:

WWE: Who is more deserving of a Night of Champions rematch: Cena or Del Rio?

WWE: Who is more deserving of a Night of Champions rematch: Cena or Del Rio?

John Cena and Alberto Del Rio are never on the same page, but both were seemingly in agreement that Night of Champions could have gone a whole lot better. The last-minute reinstatement of World Heavyweight Champion Sheamus’ Brogue Kick would ultimately spell certain doom for The Mexican Aristocrat, while the controversial conclusion to the Cenation leader’s WWE Title bout with CM Punk ended in a draw — with Punk retaining the title.

Now, Cena isn’t one to complain about circumstance. As Cena was pinning Punk at Night of Champions, his own shoulders were also flat on the mat, which resulted in a rarely seen double pinfall. Cena arrived on Raw with a purpose, not to chastise referee Chad Patton or to make excuses, but to give The Second City Savior an opportunity to definitively show he is “The Best in the World” by granting Cena a WWE Title rematch that very night on Raw. Cena’s willingness to compete was admirable, especially considering that The Cenation Commander-in-Chief was likely still reeling from the previous night, when Punk laid out Cena by hitting him with the WWE Title itself. 

Meanwhile, Del Rio strolled into the Webster Bank Arena in Bridgeport, Conn., ready for a rematch as well. Feeling victimized by SmackDown General Manager Booker T’s reinstatement of Sheamus’ Brogue Kick mere moments before the World Heavyweight Title Match at Night of Champions, The Mexican Aristocrat felt another World Heavyweight Title Match was owed to him. 

Not “skipping” a beat, Raw General Manager AJ Lee restored order on the red brand, acknowledging that both Cena and Del Rio deserve second chances, and elected to combine both of the Night of Champions main events to create a tag team “super main event” on Raw. At the end of the night, it would be Cena & Sheamus vs. Del Rio & Punk. Ms. Lee affirmed that a victory in this contest would go a long way in determining which Superstar is most worthy of another title match. 

It was Cena who would score a victory for his team by pinning Punk, thereby presumably bringing him one step closer to a WWE Championship opportunity. However, as Cena had Punk’s shoulders flat to the canvas, the official failed to notice the WWE Champion’s foot on the ropes — a tactic that would have broken the referee’s count had the official seen it. Just 24 hours after a debatable call favored The Second City Savior, Cena reaped the benefits of controversial officiating.

The conclusion of AJ Lee’s “super main event” raised many questions, but one immediately comes to mind: Is it John Cena or Alberto Del Rio who truly deserves a rematch in the wake of Night of Champions?

Cena failed to attain the WWE Title thanks to a fair  but debatable call by the official, but it’s arguable that the Cenation leader is far more deserving of a rematch. After all, in similar situations, championship bouts have been ordered to continue after a draw. Want proof? Look no further than the 60-Minute WWE Iron Man Match between Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania XII, which was ordered to resume after a time-limit draw (resulting in HBK’s first WWE Championship reign). Had AJ Lee made a similar ruling, Cena could very well be enjoying his 11th WWE Title reign.

But what of Del Rio? The egotist’s prime complaint on Raw was that the timing of Booker T’s reinstatement of the Brogue Kick on Sunday night was unfair, and that Del Rio was caught completely off-guard as he was getting ready to challenge The Great White for the illustrious World Heavyweight Title. If Del Rio had been prepared for Sheamus’ signature maneuver — and more importantly, if the Brogue Kick had remained banned — Night of Champions might have been cause for celebration for the well-heeled Superstar. Then again, Sheamus felled Del Rio with the Brogue Kick at both Money in the Bank and SummerSlam, and Del Rio had ample time to prepare for the maneuver on both occasions. There’s no concrete evidence that Sheamus and Del Rio’s Night of Champions bout would have gone any differently, Brogue Kick ban or no.

Nevertheless, it’s ultimately up to AJ Lee and Booker T to determine whether Cena or Punk — or both or neither — will receive title opportunities in the near future. But what does the WWE Universe think? To weigh in on this issue, take the poll by clicking here.

WWE Monday Night RAW Results: 9/17/2012

WWE Monday Night RAW Results: 9/17/2012 in BRIDGEPORT, CT

John Cena interrupted Paul Heyman's interrogation of Chad Patton, challenged CM Punk to a rematch

Raw began only 24 hours after the conclusion to Night of Champions, but the controversial coda to the pay-per-view left a fallout so severe it felt like it had been brewing for years. From the second the opening pyro boomed, the WWE Universe was riled up, hungry for answers as to what the implications of the WWE Championship Match — a double pinfall draw that saw CM Punk retain his title against John Cena — would be. Salvation seemingly arrived moments into the show as the opening chords of "Cult of Personality" ripped through the Webster Bank Arena, and who should arrive but ... Paul Heyman.

Far from a glimpse into the future, though, the mad scientist was only on hand to bring vindication to his friend's dubious retention. Heyman wasted no time in summoning WWE referee Chad Patton, who officiated the title contest, to the ring to bring vindication to the double pinfall that left the title in Punk's hands. Heyman produced not only a still photo from the title match, but somehow procured fan-shot footage from a camera phone in the front row of the fateful German suplex that led to the double pinfall. His work seemingly done, Heyman began to extol the virtues of The Second City Saint and took up the champion's cause of demanding respect.

John Cena, however, was having none of it. The Cenation leader, showing no ill effects of the ankle injury he suffered at Night of Champions, stormed down to the ring and shockingly agreed with Patton's decision, but not the "finality" of it. Unable and unwilling to accept that Punk and Cena's roiling rivalry could possibly conclude in a double pinfall (and unwilling to give Punk respect based off of same), Cena offered up a solution: a title rematch later that same night.

Heyman, evoking his status as "The Voice of the Voice of the Voiceless," began to respond until the overture of Alberto Del Rio's music cut him and Cena off mid-sentence. The Essence of Excellence, still flanked by the injured Ricardo Rodriguez, wasted no time in condemning SmackDown General Manager Booker T's reinstatement of the Brogue Kick, and the fact that it (according to Del Rio) cost him the World Heavyweight Championship at Night of Champions. As "the man who never lies," Del Rio demanded that he receive a title rematch.

That brought out Raw GM AJ Lee to settle the debate: Eyes wide with the fire of inspiration, AJ declared she'd come up with a "super main event": A tag match pitting WWE Champion CM Punk & Del Rio against World Heavyweight Champion Sheamus & Cena. "And who knows?" she concluded. "Whoever wins will go a long way toward determining if there will be a rematch and who will be in it."

World Heavyweight Champion Sheamus & John Cena def. WWE Champion CM Punk & Alberto Del Rio

"Super main event" was, as it turns out, an understatement. Raw General Manager AJ Lee's big idea for Raw's main event — a tag match pitting Sheamus & John Cena against CM Punk & Alberto Del Rio — was a battle for the age. With four of WWE's most dynamic competitors clashing between the ropes, rematch implications were on the line for the victors. And, when all was said and done, it was Cena who got the monkey off his back, finally getting a hard-earned pin over The Second City Saint to seal the contest for his team.

Surprisingly, The Voice of the Voiceless seemed to want no part of Cena following his narrow retention of the WWE Title at Night of Champions. Punk went out of his way to avoid a one-on-one matchup with the Cenation leader and either sent Del Rio in to do the dirty work or waited until Cena was outnumbered to get his licks in. The strategy didn't last long, though. After ending up on the wrong exchange of a Cena offense, Sheamus tagged in and promptly pounded The Second City Saint into the corner before Punk managed to tag in Del Rio. The longtime rivals from opposite ends of the social spectrum clashed yet again, with victory seemingly in hand as Sheamus called for the Brogue Kick.

Punk's instincts kicked in and a cheap shot on The Celtic Warrior saved the match for his team, leaving him an opportunity to tag in again. The WWE Champion got the better of Sheamus this time, trapping The Great White in a torturous-looking submission hold and slowing him down enough for Del Rio to re-enter the match. A strong surge from Del Rio met a brick wall, though, after The Celtic Warrior felled The Essence of Excellence with the Irish Curse.

Two tags later and Cena and Punk re-entered the fray, with Cena unleashing his signature sequence of moves, countering Punk's counter into an STF before Del Rio broke up the hold ... only to suffer a Brogue Kick that sent him into next week. Punk was next to strike, but his sneak attack on Sheamus left Cena just enough of an opportunity to send Punk flying with an AA and notch that long-elusive pin over the WWE Champion

But …

The victory, hard-earned as it was, did not come without controversy. As Cena finally secured that three-count, Punk placed his foot on the bottom rope, negating the pin. But the official didn't see Punk's foot on the ropes, and counted the pin anyway. And so, 24 hours after controversy favored CM Punk, the scales tilted back in Cena's favor. As Raw drew to a close, the final images were of Punk screaming at the official all the way up the ramp, with respect, peace of mind and a decisive victory over John Cena still eluding him.

WWE Pay-Per-View Night Of Champions 2012 Results

WWE Pay-Per-View Night Of Champions 2012 Results

WWE Champion CM Punk vs. John Cena ended in a draw

BOSTON – WWE Champion John Cena and CM Punk used every tool in their respective arsenals as they battled to determine which Superstar was truly “Best in the World” in front of the Cenation leader’s hometown Boston crowd. Ultimately, it was Cena’s impressive top-rope German suplex that would conclude this brutal bout. Yet, it wasn’t Cena’s arm that was raised in victory at the end of the night.

After Cena began celebrating what appeared to be his 11th WWE Championship victory, referee Chad Patton noted that Cena’s shoulders were also flat on  the canvas as the Cenation leader had Punk in a pinned. As explained by ring announcer Justin Roberts, the match had officially ended in a draw … with CM Punk retaining the WWE Title.

The smirk that Punk wore at the end of the night as he strode up the entrance ramp – WWE Title and Paul Heyman in tow – mirrored the one he wore at the beginning of the bout. Clad in first place New York Yankees–esque pinstripes to rile up the last place Boston Red Sox faithful in attendance, The Straight Edge Superstar set a deliberate pace as he kept his powerhouse opponent off his feet. By taking Cena’s size advantage out of the equation, Punk clearly surmised, the bout would be a manner of wearing Cena down before finishing him off with a Go to Sleep or his signature submission hold, the Anaconda Vise.

The tactic was working, inspiring guest commentator John “Bradshaw” Layfield to note that Punk was wrestling a “perfect match” and had gone into this bout with a thought-out game plan. Every time Cena tried to shift momentum, whether with a series of shoulder tackles or with his Five Knuckle Shuffle fist drop, Punk was seemingly one step ahead. Heyman, whose current association with The Second City Saint has yet to be revealed, looked on approvingly from ringside.

As Punk tried to wear down the challenger with submission after submission, it was Cena’s pure strength that helped the Cenation leader escape Punk’s holds, much to the delight of Cena’s family watching the action from the front row. Cena was not only driven by a desire to once again hoist the WWE Title above his head, but he was also determined to end Punk’s aggressive and dangerous quest for respect at any cost. Would that desire be enough, though?

After gaining the upper hand in a brutal back-and-forth brawl, Punk seemed to signal an early victory when he ascended the turnbuckle and flew through the air, driving a savage elbow directly into Cena’s heart. The Second City Saint followed up his aerial feat with the Go to Sleep, the very move that twice put Cena away in their now-iconic WWE Championship clashes at Money in the Bank and SummerSlam the previous year. However, this time, Cena kicked out of the GTS, much to the disbelief of the WWE Universe, the announce team and, yes, Paul Heyman. It was at this point that frustration began to show on the face of the WWE Champion. Having pulled out all the stops, Punk regained control, but only momentarily, as he soon fell victim to both the Five Knuckle Shuffle and the Attitude Adjustment. Just as Cena had astonishingly kicked out of the GTS, so too had Punk outlasted Cena’s signature maneuver.

It was at this point in the bout that both Superstars began employing even riskier attacks, with Cena executing an aerial leg drop and Punk taking to the sky with a poorly scouted moonsault. Punk then countered yet another Attitude Adjustment attempt into a Go to Sleep, which Cena again kicked out of. Increasingly agitated, Punk went outside of his own arsenal and attempted to silence Cena with a Rock Bottom – The Rock’s very maneuver that defeated Cena at WrestleMania XXVIII — but even such mind games would not fell the indomitable Cena, who caught Punk in yet another Attitude Adjustment. As the WWE Universe looked on with bated breath, Punk stayed alive by kicking out before the three-count.

Exhausted, battered and desperate, both Superstars traded blows atop one of the turnbuckles for a moment that had the WWE Universe packed inside Boston’s TD Garden and watching around the world wincing in anticipation. However, no one could have seen what happened next.

With Punk perched on the top rope, Cena threw Punk backward in a stunning German suplex, a move that seemed to signal victory for the West Newbury, Mass., native. However, as the pink-and-black clad ring warrior’s entrance music blared throughout the arena, Cena’s victory celebration was cut painfully short as referee Chad Patton’s ruling was made public: Both Superstars’ shoulders were pinned to the mat when the three-count was made, thus ending the bout in a draw. As a result, Punk’s 300-plus day WWE Title reign rolled on. Not content with merely besting Cena, Punk laid out the then-unsuspecting Cenation leader by striking the challenger with the WWE Title itself. “Respect” indeed.

Punk’s crusade for respect has been about more than the WWE Championship, and it’s unlikely that he’s going to be satisfied by his victory at Night of Champions. As for Punk’s association with the original ECW founder, this “Paul Heyman guy” is keeping us all guessing.

But what of Cena? It remains to be seen how The Cenation Commander-in-Chief will respond to this controversial hometown defeat, but as is always the case with the Superstar that truly personifies “hustle,” “loyalty” and, yes, “respect,” Cena won’t take this loss lying down.

WWE and John Cena go pink with Susan G. Komen for the Cure

WWE and John Cena go pink with Susan G. Komen for the Cure

WWE today announced a partnership with Susan G. Komen for the Cure featuring WWE Superstar John Cena–branded, pink and black ring gear, which will be debuted at tonight’s Night of Champions pay-per-view event in Boston. Cena will wear the Special Edition gear through October in honor of breast cancer awareness month. Fans can purchase the merchandise, including co-branded hats, T-shirts, headbands and wristbands, at live events and online at WWEShop.com, and WWE will donate 100 percent of its profits (at least 30 percent of the retail purchase price) to Susan G. Komen for the Cure.

Susan G. Komen for the Cure is the world’s largest nonprofit funder of breast cancer research and community outreach programs. To support Susan G. Komen’s mission, WWE will utilize all of its assets, including TV broadcasts, live events, and digital and social media to generate awareness and encourage fans to get involved by signing up for “Race for the Cure” events in their local communities.

Approximately five million women — more female viewers than the top rated shows on women’s networks —  watch WWE’s weekly programming.

“This partnership will reach millions of women and families with breast cancer education and awareness messages, while raising funds for Komen research and health outreach programs in the communities we serve,” Dorothy Jones, Vice President of Marketing for Susan G. Komen, said. “We’re ready to cheer on John Cena and the WWE Superstars and thank them for helping Komen fulfill our promise to end breast cancer.”

“Breast cancer is a devastating disease, and we’re committed to using WWE’s global resources to support Komen’s fight to end breast cancer forever,” WWE Superstar John Cena said. “I’ll be proud to wear pink in the ring to support this great cause.”

Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and the second leading cause of cancer-related death among women in the United States. There are 2.9 million breast cancer survivors in the United States today. For more information about Susan G. Komen for the Cure, breast health or breast cancer, visit komen.org/wwe or call 1-877 GO KOMEN

John Cena's in Pink. Rise Above Cancer!

John Cena's in Pink. Rise Above Cancer!

John Cena’s new favorite color? Pink.

The decorated pro wrestler, a product of West Newbury and 12-time World Wrestling Entertainment champion, is set to unveil his new Susan G. Komen for the Cure pink ring attire tonight at the TD Garden for the “Night of Champions” pay-per-view event. While most eyes will be glued to the wrestling action inside the squared circle, the real story with Cena is his work outside of the ring.
Cena will be wearing his new gear through October, which is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The mission of Susan G. Komen for the Cure is to eradicate breast cancer, which can be a deadly opponent when not treated early. Cena’s “Rise Above Cancer” endeavor is just a part of what makes him one of the most charitable celebrities in the world.

“One of the reasons I really wanted to do something with Susan G. Komen is because of my brother,” said Cena, 35. “Early detection saved his life.”

Cena’s youngest brother, Sean, learned last November that he had brain cancer.

“Sean’s doing extremely well,” said Cena. “It was an inoperable brain tumor, but one of the main reasons he’s done well is the early detection. I know it’s brain cancer and breast cancer, but that key is early detection.”

The Cena-Komen partnership on the surface seems like an odd one, but they are a perfect match. Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer, as well as the second-leading cause of cancer-related death among women in the U.S. And there are more than five million women who watch WWE programming each week.

“It’s very exciting for us to be partnered up with Susan G. Komen,” said Paul Levesque, the executive vice president of talent and live events, but better known as “Triple H” to the WWE universe. “The WWE and John Cena have such a large female fan base, so it’s important for us to support the people who have supported us for so long.”

And the people at Komen are not shy about explaining how this tag team was built.

“This all came together through John Cena,” said Ronni Cohen-Boyar, the executive director of Komen’s Massachusetts affiliate. “We’re wrestling with breast cancer, but John wanted to give back to his fans and he came to Komen. This is a great opportunity for us to reach out to people and help them take action.”

Cena is the second-oldest of five boys (“we’re like a pack of wolves”), and sees the connection between his willingness to give back and the way he was raised.

“The concept of loyalty is something I learned from my family,” said Cena, “and that’s truly been a big attribute that’s got me where I am today.”

Cena’s loyalty is on display every time he meets his fans, but particularly so with a special part of his fan base: the children from Make-A-Wish. In June, Cena granted his 300th Wish, far and away the most one person has given to the esteemed foundation.

“John travels 300 days a year, yet he still commits his personal time to granting the wishes of kids wanting to meet him because he is passionate about his fans,” said Make-A-Wish CEO David Williams. “He recognizes the tremendous honor of someone having the opportunity to ask for anything in the entire world and then choosing to meet him.”

Cena understands the gravity of these wishes.

“Make-A-Wish is all about living one’s spirit,” said Cena. “A wish is a giant morale boost and gives these kids an extra special day in the fight of their life. You never want a family to get that one wish and walk away and say, ‘Oh man, I wish we wished for something else.’

“You can write checks, and that’s always well-appreciated, but you can also donate a very valuable asset, and that’s time,” said Cena. “Time speaks volumes. And I would never say no, especially to a child whose only wish is to meet me — that’s just the most flattering thing, I can’t even put it in words. Giving back is something that will never stop.”

WWE: John Cena's home court (dis)advantage

WWE: John Cena's home court (dis)advantage

John Cena goes home to Boston this Sunday when he attempts to end his championship drought and defeat WWE Champion CM Punk at Night of Champions. Just because he is slated to compete in the familiar setting of TD Garden, however, don’t expect the tried-and-true “home court advantage” to apply to the Cenation leader.

For as beloved as Cena, a native of Beantown suburb West Newbury, Mass., is in many parts of New England, and for as much as Cena considers himself a Bostonian, his record at home is checkered with more than a couple significant losses.

His second U.S. Title reign ended there, and a high-profile challenge for the WWE Championship was turned back there. What’s more, the notoriously vocal Boston members of the WWE Universe (like their fellow Northeasterners in the Philadelphia-to-Beantown stretch on I-95) have not exactly embraced their local-boy-made-good. In more than one outing, “Cena sucks” chants have rained down on Cena, presumably by fans who grew up a stone’s throw away from his doorstep.

Not that any of this seems to worry the characteristically dauntless Cena days ahead of his next championship opportunity.

“I love going to Boston,” the polarizing Superstar told WWE.com in an exclusive interview. “I adapt well to any environment. I’ve been cheered there, and I’ve been booed there, but that's the Boston fans.”

On the night after SummerSlam, Cena pegged a match between himself and Punk at Night of Champions as a proving ground for The Second City Saint. Noting that Sunday’s event would be held in his “house,” Cena told Punk on Aug. 20 that a successful title defense against Cena in Boston would be “the moment that will define [Punk’s] existence.”

For once, though, the Cenation leader had it all wrong. If Cena, on his old stomping ground, overcomes the most dominant WWE Champion in recent years, that may well be the moment that defines Cena’s career — not Punk’s.

Don’t let Cena’s cavalier attitude fool you; he’s well aware of his own up-and-down history in Boston. At Royal Rumble 2003, which was held at TD Garden (then known as the Fleet Center), Cena made his maiden voyage into the intimidating Royal Rumble Match. Lastly nearly 20 minutes, Cena left the bout in defeat. Then again, the Cena of 2003 was a brash up-and-comer who was not necessarily expected to go the distance.

By the time the Royal Rumble event returned to Boston eight years later, Cena had matured into one of WWE’s most successful competitors. Yet, with an obstinate Nexus stable dead-set on eliminating him and Rumble non-participant The Miz butting in, Cena again exited the Rumble match, in his hometown, as a loser.

In October 2004, Cena’s second U.S. Title reign was merely 4 days old when he faced a debuting Carlito on SmackDown at the Fleet Center. Thanks to Carlito’s underhanded tactics (he used the then-“Doctor of Thuganomics’” own chain to knock out Cena), Cena lost his championship gold that night. A cold homecoming, indeed.

Less than two years later, Cena was again competing on home turf, this time against WWE Champion Edge in the main event of SummerSlam 2006. The Cenation leader appeared to have The Rated-R Superstar exactly where he wanted him; the match was not only held in Boston, but it also carried the stipulation that Edge would lose the title if he got disqualified. However, after The Ultimate Opportunist discreetly blasted Cena with a pair of brass knuckles behind the referee’s back, Cena drove to Bridgeport, Conn., the site of the next night’s Raw, empty-handed.

It would be misleading to suggest Cena has suffered nothing but gloom and doom in the town he’s adopted as his own. Days after toppling Big Show at WrestleMania XX to win his first title in WWE, the U.S. Championship, Cena made his first title defense in Boston, defeating the "Man Beast" Rhyno in an impromptu match that aired on a March 2004 edition of SmackDown. As WWE Champion in August 2007, Cena won a match against five-time WCW Champion Booker T via disqualification. (The crowd that night could generously be described as “divided.”)

To date, Cena’s coup de grace wrestling in Boston may have come at Survivor Series 2008, when he scored his first World Heavyweight Championship with a decisive victory over Chris Jericho.

Boston holds other precious memories for Cena. Mick Foley famously hosted a “This is your life” segment for Cena in November 2011, an homage to a similar celebration Foley held for The Rock in 1999. Featuring Cena’s father, the segment was “by far the worst piece of television WWE has orchestrated — or at least top three,” Cena playfully told WWE.com.

More personal yet, it was in Boston last November that Cena first learned that his younger brother had been diagnosed with brain cancer. When WWE returned to Boston this past March on the road to WrestleMania XXVIII, Cena was informed that his brother was “winning the war,” he said.

“Both events in TD Garden, both days on the days we were to perform in Boston, is when I got the news,” Cena explained. “It’s weird, because those don’t have to do with athletic achievement, but they're definitely the two most memorable nights I’ve had in the Garden.”

This Sunday, however, Cena will have his opportunity to bolster his in-ring resume in Boston when he guns for an unprecedented 11th WWE Title. Cena and Punk have already traded blows under the auspice of a WWE Title Match in Punk’s homeland; last year’s historic showdown at Money in the Bank, won by Punk, was held in Chicago’s Allstate Arena. Two weeks ago, Punk again bested Cena in the Second City, costing him a Falls Count Anywhere Match against Alberto Del Rio on Raw.

According to Cena, parallels can be drawn between the two cities.

“There are a few cities that are true landmarks on the WWE map: New York, Chicago, Toronto, Montreal,” listed Cena, before adding, “Boston’s one.”

These cities, WWE bedrocks all, share one commonality, he said.

“The thing you find out in all of those cities, whether you're from there or not, is passion,” Cena observed. “It is what it is, and Boston's one of those interesting crowds that provides a ton of energy. I love it. I love it.”

Cena has no qualms showing his love for Boston, but come Sunday, will the WWE Universe return the favor? “Go big or go home” is a popular ultimatum in the sports world. At Night of Champions, John Cena will try to do both.

WWE Monday Night RAW Results: 9/10/2012

WWE Monday Night RAW Results: 9/10/2012 in Montreal

CM Punk interrupted Bret Hart's interview of John Cena

Bret Hart’s interview with John Cena started out a good deal more positively than his conversation with CM Punk. The two former WWE Champions traded compliments while Hart mentioned that Cena’s rivalry with Punk reminded him of his former animosity with another WWE Hall of Famer, Shawn Michaels. Hart told Cena that he saw a lot of himself in Cena, and a lot of the old HBK in Punk.

While Cena paid due homage to The Excellence of Execution, Hart then asked Cena to reveal what he was going to do to “shut this phony punk up.”

That brought Punk out, blood boiling, to stir the pot once again. Punk echoed Hart’s sentiment that the “Hit Man” and Cena were alike … in the sense that they were “unceremoniously surpassed” by someone better than them — in Hart’s case, it was Michaels, and in Cena’s case, it was Punk himself.

Punk continued to preach to the WWE Universe, extolling his nearly yearlong reign as champion, his humiliation of The Rock and his defeat of Cena in an attempt to throw his weight around before the Cenation leader.

Cena, however, retaliated in kind, throwing Punk’s history as champion back in his face, claiming that Punk retained his mantle “by any means necessary,” which does not truly define a champion in Cena’s eyes. He claimed that Punk, formerly an agent of change, was currently defining himself simply by possessing the WWE Title, which was a far cry from the revolutionary The Voice of the Voiceless claimed to be. Cena then played to the home crowd by talking some smack in French, though Punk was quick to chastise Cena for “lowering himself” to speak “the language of the locals.” This woke the dragon even further in Cena, who erupted in a tirade against The Second City Saint and dubbed him “ignorant” before playing the role of Rosetta Stone and translating hisfrancaisfrom a few moments earlier:

“You say you’re gonna win, but I’m gonna kick your ass,” Cena repeated in English.

After some fuming, Punk lashed out not against Cena but against Hart, who blocked The Second City Saint’s attack and struck him in the head. Punk tumbled from the ring, backed up the ramp, and held onto his WWE Championship like his life depended on it

VIDEO: AFTER RAW WENT OFF AIR: 9/3/2012

AFTER RAW WENT OFF AIR: 9/3/2012

C.M. Punk came out to the ring, grabbed a John Cena headband and started rapping for the crowd. He talked about how he was supposed to face John Cena, but Cena was in no condition to wrestle.

As Punk was talking, Cena ran to the ring attacked the WWE Champion Punk. This brought out Alberto Del Rio came out to help Punk beat down Cena, which brought out Shamus to even the odds. Then Dolph Ziggler and Antonio Cesaro joined the fray.

Punk managed to escape and ran to the back. Randy Orton came out to help Sheamus and Cena and they beat up the heels and threw them to ringside.

The heels saw Miz still at ringside, grabbed him, and threw him inside the ring. Cena, Shamus and Orton surrounded The Miz. Miz grabbed a mic and asked them if they knew who he was. He’s a movie star, the Intercontinental champion and he defeated John Cena in the main event of WrestleMania. Cena said he may suck at making movies, but he’s good at beating up The Miz. This led to The Miz taking an Attitude Adjustment, an RKO and then a Brogue Kick.

After the babyfaces disposed of The Miz, they celebrated in the ring, signed some autographs at ringside and then brought a fan into the ring who was dressed up as Macho Man Randy Savage. They all celebrated with the Macho Man fan to end the show.

Alberto Del Rio def. John Cena in a Falls Count Anywhere Match; CM Punk drove away with Paul Heyman

Alberto Del Rio came into his match against John Cena with revenge on his mind. Not necessarily against Cena, but The Essence of Excellence, incensed by the attack against Ricardo Rodriguez earlier in the night, was uncommonly aggressive in his opening salvo against the 10-time WWE Champion. Del Rio had victory within his grasp early in the contest when he stunned Cena with a backbreaker. An attempt at a top rope strike, however, was cut short when Cena caught Del Rio mid-leap with a dropkick, leading seamlessly into a Five Knuckle Shuffle. Cena was unable to finish the job, though, as Del Rio maneuvered his way to the ropes after he was hoisted up for the Attitude Adjustment.

The two longtime enemies took their fight to the outside next, exploiting the Falls Count Anywhere stipulation to maximum effect. Cena and Del Rio traded Irish Whips into the steel steps before Cena set to dismantling the announce table, presumably looking to set it up for an attack on Del Rio. His plans never came to fruition, though, as The Mexican Aristocrat streaked out of nowhere to take Cena down with a kick to the head. Cena rallied, though, sending Del Rio over the barrier and setting the steel steps up next to the ruined announce table. 

The Cenation leader made his play for victory then, carrying Del Rio up the steps and looking for the AA ... but Del Rio countered, squirming off Cena's shoulders and sending him down to earth with a bone-shattering backdrop that left the announce table in ruins.

Del Rio took advantage of the reprieve to grab the microphone. Seething and sensing victory, Del Rio snarled that Cena, WWE and Chicago were all "beneath" him before vowing, "Now I'm going to break your arm, Cena." Next came the Cross Armbreaker, but Cena acted quickly, reversing it into an STF that Del Rio broke up by smashing the mic against Cena's skull.

The fight spilled up the ramp and near the TitanTron. Cena attempted his own play for victory, hoisting a speaker high above his head before Del Rio kicked Cena's leg out from under him. The two competitors brawled deep into the backstage area, using anything they could find as a weapon, but it looked like Cena would come out the victor when he AA'd Del Rio onto a stack of crates.

What he didn't count on, however, was CM Punk calling off his personal day. The Second City Saint struck fast, kicking Cena in the head and incapacitating him before hauling Del Rio on top of the prone Cenation leader, allowing the referee to record the three-count.

Punk wasn't done by a long shot yet, though, hauling Cena toward his car and executing a Go to Sleep on the hood, leaving his No. 1 contender a battered mess on the Allstate Arena floor.

"Respect," Punk said simply as he knelt before Cena. His point sufficiently made, The Second City Saint climbed back into the passenger seat of his car and drove away, but not before the camera got a good look at the vehicle's driver ... Paul Heyman.
