5 best John Cena returns to WWE

#2 Survivor Series 2004

Cena teamed with Big Show, RVD and Eddie Guerrero.

We all know John Cena as the fun-loving babyface, who's always ready to flash his signature smile for the fans.

But at Survivor Series 2004, John Cena was not there to entertain.

After being robbed of the United States Championship by Carlito several weeks earlier, Cena was stabbed in a nightclub (allegedly by Carlito's bodyguard), missing a lot of time in the ring.

Returning as part of Team Guerrero, Cena made a beeline for Carlito, chasing him off, leaving Team Angle (who would lose the match) a man behind right out of the gate.

This was followed up with Cena winning the title back from Mr. Cool, and defending it against the bodyguard, at Armageddon.

Demolishing his opponent for the entire match, Cena showed just how serious he could be, and would be WWE Champion in a matter of months.
