Well, this is how Triple H wants to paint his boy next door fighter: with some grit, a little bit of arrogance, and a hint of darkness.

John Cena's new personality was on full display during yesterday's Monday Night Raw. The instigator, Paul Heyman began the night with a lot of trash talking which was interrupted by the Cenation's music. Cena comes roaring to stage demanding a fight with Lesnar or even Heyman only for the manager to tell him off that his ward's flight was delayed. With the Beast nowhere in sight, Heyman becomes the recipient of a furious headlock.

Much to the audience surprise out comes the former UFC champion to the rescue with the words on his shirt aptly describing his aura, "Eat, Sleep, Conquer, Repeat."

This now escalates to an all-out brawl between Cena and Lesnar with officials desperately trying to intervene between the heavy bodies. Now, that is a preview for what is to come in the weekend at the Night of Champions. Cena dragging Heyman's ass and even headlocking him shows he go at full lengths to exact his revenge at Summer Slam.

What will transpire by then?

Maybe the Anomaly wins again but not without any struggle from Cena. We can expect some ally to help Cena out to dispose the new villain of WWE. But, it would still be appealing to put him on top for every fan of the WWE to despise, up until someone else comes to throw him off the top chair (Roman Reigns, anyone?).

With Lesnar being touted as more of a mercenary for hire in the past, it is good to see him in Monday Night Raw. This dedication bodes well for the wrestling world showing that he is fully committed to the role bestowed upon him.
