#2 Rey’s Short Run

A travesty
A travesty

Rey Mysterio may not have been a believable World Heavyweight Champion, but seeing him hold the WWE Championship just felt right. Mr. 619 was one of the most popular Superstars in the company throughout his run, and when he won the belt back in 2011, it felt like it could be the beginning of a really fun time for him.

Alas, the main man John Cena came into the fold once again and won the title from Rey within a few hours of him capturing it against The Miz.

It was a move that felt incredibly heelish on Cena's part, and the booking made absolutely no sense. While it was fun to see these two square off in a match of this magnitude, they should've saved it for a pay-per-view.
