16 times John Cena failed to win the WWE Championship

John Cena is a 15 time World Champion, but Ric Flair’s record of 16 has eluded him.

#11 Cena vs. Orton vs. Sheamus vs. Barrett vs. Edge vs. Jericho -WWE Championship, Night of Champions 2010 (Six-Pack Elimination)

Cena has a long history with each of the men in this match.

Another Night of Champions, another failed attempt to win the WWE Title for John Cena.

This time, Sheamus went in as champion and Randy Orton left. Cena then fell into a dark age for his title dreams because of his ongoing feud with Wade Barrett and The Nexus.

About the author

I got my first big break writing for 411Mania back in 2004. I did a small spot in a big weekly piece that was written by one of the site's top writers. I quickly added the duty of being the live recapper for episodes of SmackDown, and in 2005 was given my own weekly column, which I did for a few years. I gave up writing (mostly) to start a family but got back into it, still at 411, a little over 3 years later. For another couple of years, I wrote 2-3 columns per week for the website before finding paid work elsewhere, and eventually wound up at SportsKeeda.

I am also the co-founder of the RBR: Weekly Wrestling Talk podcast, which started in the summer of 2005 and is still going strong today, almost 15 years later. Due to school, work, and family commitments, I left the team in 2011 but still remain a part of the family.
