John Cena and Roman Reigns are two of the most protected Superstars in modern WWE. For most WWE Superstars, pinning either of them even with the help of a distraction or outside interference is a dream. However, for some Superstars like Brock Lesnar, defeating either of them is not a huge deal.

Lesnar thrashed John Cena at SummerSlam 2014 during their 16-minute squash match at the show's main event. Lesnar also defeated Reigns at WrestleMania 34 in 2019 after putting Reigns through half a dozen F5s. Quite impressive. However, Lesnar had to wait around four and a half years between defeating the two "golden" boys.

However, Seth Rollins defeated both Cena and Reigns "clean" on the same night. Ahead of the Elimination Chamber 2017 clash, all participants of the match clashed in a gauntlet match. Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins kicked off the gauntlet match. Rollins successfully pinned Reigns after a roll-up. Cena came in next and put on a stellar match with Seth Rollins. Rollins was on fire that night and defeated Cena too - making him the only Superstar to defeat both Reigns and Cena on the same night.
