WWE Hall of Famer backs Drew McIntyre to replace John Cena as 'The Face of WWE'

After John Cena decided to leave WWE and focus on acting, WWE tried everything they can to replace John Cena as the face of the company. They even included Roman Reigns in many incredible storylines, but the 'Big Dog' was not able to attract huge crowds the way John Cena did. After that, they started building up Seth Rollins' character as well. They even made Rollins beat Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania, but that didn’t work either. No one until now has successfully replaced John Cena in WWE.
