When you talk about who is the biggest superstar in the modern era of WWE, there is no doubt that John Cena is the man who holds that feat. He is currently the most decorated man in the WWE today as he has held multiple championships. He is a 16-time world champion, tying with Ric Flair's record in the process.

Whether you love or hate The Franchise of WWE, the truth is that you must respect him for everything that he has done for this company. Despite the fact that Ric Flair is a legendary Hall of Fame superstar, John Cena deserves to break the entire record himself. After all, records are indeed made to be broken. 

John Cena should no longer be tied with Ric Flair for most world championships held, as instead, he should be the man to break the entire record itself. Here are 5 reasons to back up this statement.

It's no secret that John Cena is performing on a part-time schedule, due to the fact that he has other commitments such as movies and TV shows. There are clearly other things that The Franchise of WWE wants to pursue in his career, and that is completely understandable. 

On the other hand, the current Universal Champion is Brock Lesnar, and many fans all over the world have stated their disappointment in the fact that Lesnar doesn't appear every night on Raw as the world champion should. You could make the same argument for Cena if he ever held the world title, which is why he needs to break the all-time world championship record in the WWE as soon as possible.

Cena is only going to get busier as he progresses in his life at Hollywood, whereas now he is able to appear on Raw and Smackdown whenever he feels like it.

In the WWE, you currently have many superstars who are on the verge of rising to megastar status. It's clear to see that Vince McMahon is heavily pushing the likes of Seth Rollins and AJ Styles, with many other talents who are on the rise such as Andrade, Drew McIntyre, Rusev and Finn Balor, it would be better for WWE to have Cena win a world title now so that he doesn't stall the momentum of other rising talents in the future.

This will also allow talents such as Rusev and McIntyre to develop further into their own characters whilst performing in the upper mid-card and lower main event picture. With Cena becoming a 17-time world champion, it allows him to hold the title for a while before dropping it to give another superstar the rub.

And this way, you can get the record-breaking moment over and done with so that other talents can emerge as top faces in the future whilst Cena fulfills his duties outside of the wrestling world.
