WrestleMania 28 featured the ‘Once in a Lifetime’ match between John Cena and The Rock, somewhat similar to the ‘Icon vs Icon’ matchup between The Rock and Hollywood Hulk Hogan a few years prior at WrestleMania 18.
Rocky went on to beat Cena at ‘Mania 28 and the duo would wrestle again at ‘Mania 29 for The People’s Champion’s WWE strap, with Cena emerging victorious the second time around.
WrestleMania 28 saw Sheamus beat Daniel Bryan for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship in just 18 seconds. The Undertaker defeated Triple H in a Hell in a Cell match, with Shawn Michaels as the special guest referee for the bout.
The event also saw a 12-man tag-team match in order to determine the General Manager for WWE’s RAW and SmackDown brands, with Team Johnny (John Laurinaitis and co.) emerging victorious.
The penultimate bout of the evening saw CM Punk successfully defend his WWE Championship against Chris Jericho by way of submission.
The night’s headliner saw The Brahma Bull aka The People’s Champion aka Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson defeat John Cena in a surprisingly good performance, given the fact that Rocky had been away from the squared-circle as a performer for quite some time coming into ‘Mania 28.
