Why The Rock vs. John Cena feud was the greatest of all time

Others come close, but The Rock and John Cena might have been the best rivalry in WWE of all time

Real dislike for each other

Off screen, The Rock and Cena had a real dislike for each other

The Rock didn’t like Cena and Cena did not like The Rock. When you can take a situation and build on it – especially when neither man was afraid to voice their opinion, it makes for great theatre. Their comments spilt over onto social media and the talk show circuit.

All the while, The Rock kept his Hollywood schedule and Cena continued to fight the good fight in the ring. The fact it also got personal when these two were face to face in an arena added to the drama. It also carried over to the second WrestleMania match, which went to Cena.
