so His smile then turned serious as Cena cut a direct promo challenging Taker's manhood (even referencing the workout photos that The Deadman's wife, Michelle McCool, had posted of him on Instagram). "It's amazing that a symbol so strong is really so fragile," Cena said. "Stop hiding behind your lame excuses. You are not too old, you are not washed up, you are not broken down. The only person stopping this match from happening is you, you self-centered, conceited, egomaniac." Cena dropped the mic and walked off but not before saying, "The ball is in your court, Deadman."
This was a badass promo, make no bones about it. Cena was also entertaining (until he pushed the goodwill too far with the chants) by jumping into the crowd and freestyling with the people. But unless Cena and Undertaker are among your favorite wrestlers in history, you're probably not going to want to hear the hard truth. For as strong as this segment was, it's difficult to imagine the actual match will be anywhere as good after the rough memories of seeing an ailing Deadman look exactly that against Reigns last year.
