It is true that Cena faced Kane in an Ambulance match just last year. Too soon for another? I think there are other match types that have been spammed a lot more. I don't complain about how many times we have had Last Man Standing matches. I think they could have developed a good storyline around the theme of an ambulance. Of course, it would have to involve Cena selling the injuries he has sustained over the last few weeks a little more. That would have been a story you did not have between Kane and Cena last year. You could even have Ryback continue to destroy other people and put them in the ambulance.
What do I not like about making it Three Stages of Hell? Is that really necessary for this feud? If you look at the men who have been involved in these matches in the past, all are legends and have been pushed to be stars. This is a type of match that should cap off a heated feud. People used to say that kind of thing about Hell in a Cell. That has lost some of that luster. And now another match type will lose some luster. This feud between Ryback and Cena does not need this much. Hyping the return of CM Punk should be a good draw for the PPV. Besides, it wasn't like Cena was not going to be in a match at all. You had good stuff already.
Last thing I want to mention, the feud between Cena and Ryback once again shows very well what it means to be a jobber to the centerpiece. When this feud first started, I didn't really see anything for Cena to overcome. Since then, the WWE has obviously done a great job in developing Ryback to be something for a centerpiece to overcome. A jobber to the centerpiece doesn't just lose to a centerpiece. They are developed to put them over. They help to create situations for the centerpiece to showcase his character. It's not all about the centerpiece owning the jobber to the centerpiece 24/7. How many times has Ryback left Cena laying or cost him matches? And yet, Cena will overcome. He always overcomes.
Did I say that was the last thing I wanted to mention? Let me go for overkill. This doesn't really have to do with Cena and Ryback, but it does relate to the idea I just mentioned of not seeing anything for Cena to overcome when this feud got started. Have you ever watched someone drawing a picture? I'm talking about those situations where they don't tell you what they are drawing beforehand. You are either playing one of those drawing games or you pass by someone drawing something. When they first get started, when they make that first dot, line, or even shape, you can't really tell exactly what they are drawing. You have to wait a while for the picture to take shape. After that, you can figure it out without being told, unless the person is a very horrible artist. Now, if you know more about the artist before he starts drawing, that can help you figure things out more easily. If you know the artist only draws waterlilies or portraits of Jinder Mahal, that can help you narrow down what it can be even before he starts drawing. If you know the artist has a pattern of drawing a certain thing on a certain day of the week and another certain thing on another day of the week, you might be able to tell what he is going to do before he even starts, assuming he does not break that pattern. You can think about analyzing what the WWE is doing in the same way. Don't jump to conclusions right away. Wait to see how things develop. Keep in mind the kind of things the WWE likes to do. Look for patterns. It really isn't that hard to analyze.
