4 of John Cena's greatest rivals throughout the years

#2 CM Punk

Punk vs Cena

Ever since Punk made his main roster debut, this was the contest everyone wanted to watch.

What happens when the face of WWE goes up against the rebel from the indies?

And their first match at MITB 2011 was every bit as spectacular as everyone had hoped for it to be; not only garnering mainstream attention but also getting high praise from fans and critics alike. Punk picked up the win in this match, as would be the case in most of their matches.

The feud continued on-and-off for roughly two years which was capped off when the two met in another spectacular match on an edition of RAW; when Cena finally managed to pick up a win against Punk, which was also their last encounter with each other.
