None of that is significant. Who cares about the US title or him getting a squash over Hassan? Cena spent two years in the midcard before he won the top spot, while guys like Angle, Lesnar and Goldberg were given everything after about 8 minutes in the companies.
Angle gets my (WWE) vote. In his first year alone:
- Undefeated streak for the first couple of months of his career.
- won both the Intercontinental and European championships at the same time within three months of his debut.
-2000 King of the Ring.
-Beat the Rock for the WWE title at No Mercy.
-Retained the title for the rest of the year,including a feud with The Undertaker which included him being put over in a six way Hell in a Cell match at Armageddon.
