Ranking John Cena's 10 best WrestleMania matches

#4 Rusev – WrestleMania 31

Cena vs Rusev was a fun rivalry

The Bulgarian Brute was on an absolute tear in the 12 months prior to WrestleMania 31, as Rusev went through every notable mid-carder on the main roster before eventually capturing the United States Championship. He managed to bring prestige back to the title long before the US Open Challenge came along, and for that, we’ll be forever grateful.

In terms of this match, everything went pretty smoothly, from the production to the actual end result. Sure, Rusev winning would’ve been a nice twist, but we were actually okay with the idea of someone with John Cena’s stature holding a mid-card championship. In the end, it was a great move as Cena continued to make the US title feel like the most important belt in the entire company, so everyone came out a winner here.

Well, apart from RuRu.
