From a generic character in 2002, Cena morphed into a rapper for the time period of 2002–2004, which earned him fame within the audience on SmackDown![8][9] Cena later transitioned to his current character, which he describes as a "goody-two shoes Superman".[10] However, Cena was labeled "the most polarizing professional wrestler ever" by industry commentator Jim Ross, as his character has many supporters and detractors.[11] Cena was WWE's franchise player[11][12] and its public face[13] for much of the 2000s and 2010s. Industry veterans John Layfield, Paul Heyman[14] and Kurt Angle[15] have called Cena the greatest WWE star of all time.
