The impression I get from your post is that you think it's unfair that people like the idea of MVP having a long title run more than they did Cena having a long run. Since when is it wrong for people to have opinions? In reality, the conclusion that this leads us to is that MVP may have more potential than Cena if people are responding better to MVP than they did to Cena at this point in his career.

It's also easier for a heel to have a long title reign and still get reactions than it is for a babyface to have a long title reign and still get reactions. The most important thing you are forgetting is that throughout Cena's title reign, he held the WWE title. He was the top guy on RAW for seemingly an eternity, and WWE pushed him in our face every chance they got. MVP, on the other hand, is just the U.S. champion, comfortably sitting in Smackdown's midcard. He comes out, has a match or VIP Lounge promo, and that's all we see of him until the next week. He's not being overexposed as Cena was. All those reasons contribute as to why MVP still has so much support after his long title reign, and why Cena had so much hate after his much longer title reign.
What is Greatness? How do you define it?
