John Cena sucks. John Cena sucks. That's how the old song goes. Thousands singing in building around the world to this theme song, just to show how much they believe Cena "sucks". And I suppose this list of bouts is my reply to them, in a way. However, it's also a celebration of Cena's return to WWE from injury this coming Monday on Raw on the USA Network, Sky Sports and elsewhere. The 39 year old's return will almost certainly give the show a boost, both in terms of excitement and TV ratings, with a number of mouth-watering potential feuds and storyline opportunities. There's a real story to be told with Cena trying to find his place within the "New Era".
So to get you all lathered up for The Cenation Leader's return, here's 100 of his best matches. Let's start with 100-20, and then we'll go a bit more in depth from there. The first part of this list includes many a PPV main event, including some from WrestleMania, as well as hidden gems tucked away on episode of RAW, Smackdown and even ECW on Sci Fi! The list has been kept to no more than four competitors for singles matches and no more than three-a-side for tag bouts, so there are no Royal Rumbles, Money in the Bank Ladder matches, Elimination Chambers, Survivor Series tag bout etc. here. Enjoy!
