#4. John Cena vs. Johnny Gargano

John Cena became is WWE's franchise player. For a long time, he was the focus of the company's major storylines. Johnny Gargano has shared a similar trajectory in NXT.

John Cena vs. Johnny Gargano could be the ultimate babyface showdown. Mr. WWE vs Mr. NXT, Big Match John vs. Johnny Wrestling. They are so similar and yet so different.

Gargano is a wrestler while John Cena is an entertainer. This would add to a different dynamic, the undying superhero vs. the relentless and never-say-die wrestler.

They may score more near-falls than offense, but Johnny Gargano vs. John Cena would be a sight to behold.


#3. John Cena vs. Tomasso Ciampa

John Cena vs. Johnny Gargano would be a spectacle like no other. The only thing that holds it back is the babyface vs. babyface element constricting the narrative potential. John Cena vs. Johnny Gargano's nemesis, though, would be like when Batman took on Lex Luthor.

Tomasso Ciampa has never faced Cena before. They are unknown to each other, and there will be an extended feeling out process of innovative offense.

Ciampa can be the callous villain to Cena's unbreakable superhero. A classic tale of good vs. evil, pitting one of the most sadistic heels against one of the most supported heroes.
