John Cena Reflects Regret Over Ruthless Aggression WWE Character

John Cena recently reflected on two significant aspects of his WWE career during appearances at the Philadelphia Fan Expo. He described the risky decision to take part of his match against Rob Van Dam at ECW One Night Stand outside the ring into the crowd as the "stupidest move" of his career, acknowledging the potential danger from the hostile audience but was relieved by their professionalism. Additionally, Cena expressed regret over his initial "Ruthless Aggression" character, stating he "did nothing with it" and wished he could have a do-over for that phase of his career, which began with his 2002 WWE debut against Kurt Angle. This character was soon replaced by his more successful "Doctor of Thuganomics" persona that propelled him to stardom. Cena's candid reflections highlight both his early career challenges and the learning experiences that shaped his wrestling legacy. He is currently the reigning Undisputed WWE Champion, having won the title at WrestleMania 41.
