Twice in a Lifetime- The Rock vs John Cena

The match which was labeled as Once in a lifetime actually happened twice! John Cena and The Rock are possibly the two biggest stars in the history of sports entertainment. While The Rock was the go-to guy in the magnificent Attitude Era, John Cena was the face of the PG Era.

Cena went toe-to-toe with The Great One at WrestleMania 28 as the world witnessed these gigantic names battle each other for the very first time.

Cena fans will probably never forget the moment when they thought the Cenation Leader slayed the Brahma bull as he went for the people’s elbow, only to become the recipient of a devastating rock-bottom, which resulted in The Rock winning their first bout.

No one really expected these legendary superstars to be competing against each other one more time but as they say, Never Say Never with the WWE!

The Rock and Cena battled again, this time for the prestigious WWE World Heavyweight Championship.

Cena faced the people's champ in yet another main event of the WrestleMania, as the two powerhouses fought for the title at WrestleMania 29.

While the match was equally impressive, the winner was different this time as John Cena got the better of The Rock and became the new World champion.

The WWE Universe was startled by the two legends and it is good to say that this match holds a special place in the WWE vault.
