I miss the days where he WWE writers would shoot down a storyline idea, but be like "but we could do it in the next videogame though..." I honestly think that's where a lot of their storylines came from. Real life storylines they liked but couldn't do for whatever reason.
@@jeffreymark475 06 is when the Cena character started to get stale so turning him heel would've been amazing but nah we get 12 more years of baby face Cena 😭
I’m surprised WWE never tried John Cena as a heel after his 2012 feud with Kane He started acting more aggressively (he brutalised Jack Swagger at one point during the Kane feud). Maybe Zack Ryder could’ve asked what’s happening with JC , saying that he’s changed and JC could beat up ZR in response. That way, JC would’ve “embraced the hate” like Kane wanted 😃
It has been confirmed that the intial plans after the 1st rock match at WM28 which would of been after "embrace the hate" would of been a cena heel turn on the rock with everything changed new attire, new song and wwe even filed the trademark for his new catchphrase "fear my name".
It got cancelled because they were afraid if he was heel, they'd be losing money by having their top face be a heel now. Roman has just done it and it works, so they easily could've done it with Cena first.
@@rkrleg8 as the majority of the Roster, except non talking character like Umaga or Great Khali But I'm curious what happened if you do a 24/7 with one of these character.
00:54 Khali sprinting? And Who the hells idea was it make The Great Khali do a dropkick?😂 1:58. Out of all the wrestlers on the game roster to make Cena's athletic ally, they chose Khali lmao.
@@derrickhaggard I first played it on pep, but I know i have it for ps2 somewhere still. May have to try it again and see if I get those this time around
I remember when I started 24/7 mode in SVR 2008 today and in the 1st cutscene I seen Randy Orton and Umaga attacking John Cena and I was confused. And I didn't lose a single match in 24/7 mode bec I'm too good at it and I've never lost a match before I even won the 2v1 matches and the triple threat ones. I'm just too good
3 are from Raw vs. Smackdown 2008 and 1 is from Raw vs. Smackdown 2007 and there's also 1 from Raw vs Smackdown 2006 where he plays ▶️ a heel 👠 in a storyline called Uneasy Allies, I believe.
Seeing John cena turning heel and attacking people backstage is kinda weird because I always thought he's always a face even in the storylines in wwe but in video games its actually a cool thing like a what if John cena turned heel
The reason they pushed him being heel so hard this year is because 2007-2008 is when the fans started turning on him and booing him so they decided to give the players a chance to make him a heel even if it was just a video game.
All 3 of the svr 08 storylines you mentioned are all randomly paired characters. 90% of the storylines in svr 08 are randomly paired superstars for each storyline and very few are character specifics, and John Cenas heel roles in this game are non-character specifics so that is why I dnt consider any of these to be canonical, except for The Svr 07 story.
Cena being a heel?
Khali doing dropkicks?
Vince McMahon tearing doors?
This is great
It’s AMAZING
Lol I gave Khali and Viscera Cruiserweight moves mixed with their Super Heavyweight moves. Made playing as them completely unfair.
@nemo pouncey what?
The WWE Creative Team were on LSD at the time 😆
Khali is there randomly
1:59 What's more shocking than Cena turning heel is the great Khali doing a dropkick.
If Khali did that in real life, everyone would’ve lost their minds.
8:43 even in games, John Cena kisses another man's girlfriend.
3:44 Such a graceful throw.
I was just about to comment that 😂😂
Dude’s running around like a cruiserweight ahaha
Khali in Japan...

@@shankarprakhar You sure?
That storyline in svr 2007 was awesome, Cena was a great heel in that game.
Cena was also technically heel in the survivor series storyline when Booker T betrays smackdown
I miss the days where he WWE writers would shoot down a storyline idea, but be like "but we could do it in the next videogame though..." I honestly think that's where a lot of their storylines came from. Real life storylines they liked but couldn't do for whatever reason.
It's a magical theory. And yeah you kinda see the almost on tv storylines on WWE games.
Except WWE and the WWE writers don't make the games. That would be THQ and YUKES
writers don’t have anything to do with the game development
John calling Hunter a ‘kid’ is very weird
Exactly
Yeah your right cause triple started before Cena
A kid is basically a rookie in wwe
Isn't that because you could have a CAW in that mode? I think a lot of the lines were made for the situation you played as the CAW.
Does anyone realize how good of a voice actor John Cena is.
To be fair 3:03 seems like something Vince has actually done
He ain't called the genetic jackhammer for nothing.
Khali allied with Cena...doing dropkicks? What fresh hell was SVR 08?! Great video man!
Lol I saw that too
@@patrickjufc938 He tries that in real-life, he's liable to fuck both his legs.
@nemo pouncey Yeah I saw that!
I’m more surprised he allied himself with Umaga - one of his early adversaries during Umaga’s early undefeated streak run.
@@GaidenDS10 Same!
are we not gonna talk about the Great Khali doing a drop kick or Vince ripping a whole ass door like what? 🤣
Some peoples are talking about the dropkick...but No one seems to bring up Vince ripping the door out
@@CHAOTIXMaddLass lmao peoples"
and yes bih sences are weird
Khali dropping dropkicks, having to kiss Cena's ass to "join" his club, yeah SvR 08 is great!
But imagine if cena was a heel in '05 or '06, your videos are really cool.
Thanks! And yeah this is like looking into another universe were Cena did turn heel in 2006/2007.
Why turn him heel in 05 he just turned face not to long ago at that point. 07 or 08 would have been the right time
@@jeffreymark475
From what I've seen, he wanted to lose to Edge at Unforgiven 2006 and return to Smackdown where he would turn heel.
@@jeffreymark475 06 is when the Cena character started to get stale so turning him heel would've been amazing but nah we get 12 more years of baby face Cena 😭
He was heel in OVW
24/7 mode of SmackDown vs Raw 2008 wasn't bad as i remember, i would like to play it again honestly
It was bad
John's voice acting is on point
John Cena heel is as rare as Cm Punk returning to wwe
Yep
tbf hes going to aew
He's coming bro...ITS CLOBBERIN TIME #AEW
Lol
as rare as khali doing a dropkick
Cena turning heel is like making a car candy, it ain't happenin
Even Triple H can't call Mr McMahon Vince
Wow, you know what's even rarer than Cena turning heel... Great Khali performing a drop kick 😂
I wouldn’t had known about these heel cena cause I was always John cena in every story mode 😂😂
The day John Cena turns heel, the day pigs fly
He was already a heel in his earlier years. Between late 2002 and pre-Survivor Series 2003.
He was a heel already
@Del Boy Trotter I guess that means the WWE Universe is all heels.
Swine flu. Lol
Don't y'all know that cops got helicopters? Word to Geechi Gotti.
The most unrealistic thing out of these four moments is Khali leaving his feet.
SvR 2008 career or 24/7 mode was underrated, wish 2k would do a long story career mode like in 2008 with many voiced storylines like this
I’m surprised WWE never tried John Cena as a heel after his 2012 feud with Kane

@@elreydearabia7027 Because they had a deal made with Target so he couldn't turn heel. I think
In SvR 2008, the casting of the storyline is random except for the legend and the ECW Stories, Cena was not necessarily heel.
Well then they just randomly wanted him heel then.
He has scripted audio so they had him intended to be used as a heel at some point
Exactly!
@@rkrleg8 as the majority of the Roster, except non talking character like Umaga or Great Khali
But I'm curious what happened if you do a 24/7 with one of these character.
@@Philou67 Those characters will just be replaced with other superstars (Can't be certain with whom) for the same role.
THE GREAT KHALI DID A FUCKING DROPKICK! 😂😂😂😂😂 1:58
1:59 Khali's Dropkick damn😂
Loving the WCW vs nWo world tour main menu theme!!!!
These are all good memories right here not gonna lie. These WWE games were amazing
The great Khalil doing a dropkick
Seeing Great Kahli doing a drop kick is as rare as Big Show today doing Moonsaults
I dont know what is more surprising, a heel turn by Cena or Khali doing a dropkick.
I like how 05-09 Cena was hustle loyalty and respect written all over him but the 06-08 games painted him as a thug 🤣
I didn't like 08 overall. So I would've never dreamed of discovering this
I would of never thought John cent turned heel I forgot he was a heel at one point
Half of this video is just Triple H getting a beating😂😂
He gets to make Triple H look weak. The only one able to do it.
Cena was also pretty much a heel in SvR 2007's "Traitor on Smackdown" story, but that could just be due to him being on Team Raw.
Is no one gonna talk about KHALI doing a DROPKICK!?!?!?!?
Or Vince ripping off the locker room door?
Where
@@theoutsiderjess1869 1:58
Mick Foley chasing cena, khali and kenny dykstra with a 2x4 and khali doing a dropkick had me dying of laughter 😂😂😂

I loved this video TGG, can’t wait for the next one.
What is the name of this game please i have been bored playing 2k i was not knowing that earlier wwe was having very good games
Idk why but the Keeping it Real story felt so natural
1:59 ok i turned my phone off in disbelief mf cant even walk irl.
LMAOOOO khali doing drop kicks like he Rey mysterio Vince ripping tears of the hinges like he hulk ahh I miss the old Wwe games 😭😭😭
2:00 In all this, Great Khali is doing a dropkick LMFAO
10:11 Shawn’s face 😂😂
Thank you for making videos more often 🤝
Seeing Great Khali do a dropkick scares me
the 3d style of these wwe games make the superstars not only feel way more realistic but also look more realistic than the simulation style 2k does
The funny thing is that John Cena joins Vince McMahon to beat up Triple H 😂😂😂
Would love to see Cena as a heel again
Wait, is nobody gona say a thing about The Great Khali drop kick?!
wtf vince doing breaking down doors 😂
From what I recall, that heel Cena story from SDvRAW2007 was only playable if you selected Edge as your playable character.
From what I remember if you chose Perc Angel he would clash with Evolution
It also was playable if you picked Big Show as well.
It’s crazy because i choose john cena to play the story mode as ..Randy orton is my opponent & he teams up with umaga .
Stephanie having a crush on John Cena was way too bizarre for my mind to comprehend
He did smack her ass on TV before so it's not that far fetched.
Make more videos with commentary! The mood feels much better
5:05 the most triple h cutscene 😂
When I played SVR08 I actually got the Gladiator storyline and the Battle of the Animals storyline and they were unique experiences.
Its weird cause as many times as I've played it, I never got those storylines. Probably cause I spent most of it winning every match 😅 idk.
@@trebaker0619 The Storylines are random as when they will happen.

5:55 Well it did happen once in 2007
0:47 so much nostalgia.
In SVR 2007 season mode, there’s a rare John Cena storyline with Chris Masters. To get it, don’t go challenge for the WWE championship.
What video do I have to watch to get this
If it's the tag team storyline, you can get that with anyone.
can we just agree Kahli and a dropkick is a funny ass thing
Svr 2008 is the only game where you can see Khali doing a dropkick 😂😂
5:38 who is this mysterious Mr Mahon? Is he Mr McMahon's good twin?
3 are from Raw vs. Smackdown 2008 and 1 is from Raw vs. Smackdown 2007 and there's also 1 from Raw vs Smackdown 2006 where he plays ▶️ a heel 👠 in a storyline called Uneasy Allies, I believe.

Yay I’m early, now I love ur videos
A DROPKICK from The Great Khali!! Wow..
Was that a dropkick by the Great Khali at the two minute mark?
I would love to see this in real!🤣🤣🤣
It was at backlash for me when John Cena and Torrie Welson turning heel on SVR 2007.
Back when we games had the superstars voices and didn’t have canned animations glory days of WWE
John Cena's older heel runs (even before his WWE run): 👍🏼
A modern heel run: 😐
0:53 Khali runs pretty fast lol
1:59
THE CLAYMORE 😂😂😂
1:59 you know it’s only a video game when you see the great khali busting out drop kicks

What happened to JR's voice in 3:31 lol
Great khali with the drop kick
Seeing Khali do a drop kick made me spill my drink.
2:49 I feel like Vince McMahon is the only one who sounds like he's trying in WWE games
Theres no way the great khali could do a dropkick
Cena as a heel. Insane!
John Cena turning heel is as rare as The Miz being injured
SVR 2011 - Cena turns heel after smashing MVP's head with a chair on Orton's orders....
Man watching this video makes me miss the Smackdown Vs Raw era of wwe games even more
I was huge biggest fan on john cena on 2002 on smackdown
Cena got rizz bro he is the rizz God
I'm fucking dying at "MR. MAHON" 😂😂
If there's anything more bizarre in WWE games than the calamity of 2K20, it's seeing Cena go heel and Khali doing dropkicks.
Khali with the drop kick 👀
the great khali moves phenomenal wow
Cena is also a bit part heel in the SVR 2007 survivor series storyline where your character is on smackdown and Booker T betrays the team
Ah the Great Kali drop kick one of the most iconic moves ever
