Top 8 SummerSlam main events from this decade

#5 John Cena vs CM Punk for the Undisputed WWE Championship (SummerSlam 2011)

CM Punk was white hot during this period

Let me get this out of the way. This match was nowhere near their epic encounter at Money in the Bank a month earlier. But still, given these two's amazing chemistry with one another, they were bound to deliver an exciting match even during their off days.

The build for this match was all CM Punk, and rightfully so. There was no other superstar who even came close to his popularity during this time. He gained a cult following and essentially a demi-god status during this run.

Cena was merely standing on the sideline and raising his championship belt when required. In fact, Triple H (the referee for this match) played more of a role in the build to this match than Cena.

There was a lot going against this match, but these two despite all of those hindrances put up a solid match.
