Vince McMahon realizes that Dave Batista and John Cena are not the next Stone Cold or The Rock, and understands that they will make mistakes. Vince considers the two of them projects, and expects other workers to help hide and eliminate their flaws.
Some WWE workers are upset, feeling that they were pushed prematurely (Batista more so then Cena), and not ready for top spot as are other wrestlers who are stuck in the mid-card with more comedic characters.
One WWE worker said that neither would make it past mid-card level 10-15 years ago, but they both have some very marketable aspects, and that Cena is considered much better on the mic, whereas Batista is over mainly because of his face work over a much hated HHH.
