Cena actually said in an interview a few momths back that both he and Orton were well aware of how tired fans were of their never ending matches and feud and aimed to make the Iron Man Match much more different and fun enough to stand out and they homestly did as that,their breaking point I Quit match and Summerslam 07 classic are my favourite matches of theirs

@HHHBFResurrected 26 күн бұрын

Although they were booked in too many matches together, I always thought they had very good chemistry in the ring. Way more than either of them had with Triple H who both also wrestled far too much. Besides the three you mentioned, the TLC match is decent as well, and that Royal Rumble one the crowd hijacked has great comedic value thanks to Orton lol

It's amazing how Cena's reputation has changed over the last 5 years. John hasn't damaged someone else's push in a very long time. Some people still hate him out of reflex but I think that the majority of fans have learned to respect the guy. He has spent at least the last 5 years putting over young wrestler's.

Not just them in particular but every feud that involved Cena was the same way in that like you said most other rivalries u usually get to see role reversals whereas with Cena you never got to see what a Heel Cena VS Face CM Punk, Face Triple H, Face Seth Rollins,Face Randy Orton matchup would look like

u either saw Cena in ultimate good guy persona against the other guy being a bad guy or u saw him and them both going against each other as faces like him and Punk,Or him and Triple H, and him and Rollins, him and Orton ,Him and Zayn like he's had too many Babyface VS Babyface matches because they for whatever reason was reluctant to have him fresh his persona

Not only that, but he said that Randy Orton delivered the dreadful punt kick to RETAIN the title. That's wrong. Randy Orton delivered the dreadful punt kick to REGAIN, capture or WIN the WWE championship. That was Randy Orton's second ever hell in a cell match in WWE(almost 4 years after his first hell in a cell match at the Smackdown exclusive pay-per-view Armageddon 2005), while it was John Cena's first ever hell in a cell match.

Both my favourite Cena and Orton matches are the one they had at Breaking Point 2009 in a No DQ Submission match and the other own is the one that should've Main evented HIAC 2014 imo which was their HIAC 2014 match. Both are bangers and to me their best encounters with each other. An underrated one imo is the Triple Threat Mania match they had with Triple H at Mania 24. And another underappreciated classic is John and Randy's TLC 2013 ppv encounter in a TLC match for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship in the main event. Also I love the part of Cena and Orton stealing each others moves at the 2014 Royal Rumble.

Orton Vs Cena Iron Man Match was the first Iron Man Match 2009 since 2005 (HBK Vs Angle at WWF Homecoming USA Network)

@jodawa2504 21 күн бұрын

That Cena vs Orton 60-minute Iron Man match was an "Anything Goes" match as well, a sort of No Holds Barred Iron Man match, along with the stipulation that if John Cena lost the Iron Man match against Orton, he would be gone from Monday Night Raw for good, which reminds me of the ladder match between Edge & Matt Hardy on Raw in September 2005 for Edge's Money In The Bank briefcase. If Matt Hardy won the match, he would've been the new Mr Money In The Bank, but if Matt Hardy lost, he would be forced to leave Monday Night Raw.

Hear me out. Orton pins Solo in a triple threat to win the title - October Cody pins Orton in a triple threat to take the belt - Rumble Orton turns on Cody & takes the belt - Post-WM. This makes him a 16 time world champ same as Cena. Both one short of Flair. Into 2025 In Cena's retirement run, the WHC is vacated due to some storyline idk. And Cena's 2nd to last match is for the vacant world title vs WWE champion Orton. Winner becomes 17x champion. Orton would be double champ. Cena wins & drops it to his final opponent in his retirement match, probably Bron.

Here can someone explain the whole heel wrestler having their legs on the rope being illegal. Like in Kayfabe or whatever, surely having your feet UNDER a rope would give you more leverage and making it harder to kick out of. But it's mostly on top of the ropes you see it. Pls thanks x Nice video ❤

the most forced feud of all time they tried so hard to make it the Austin/Rock of that era and it didn't work They had probably the boring HIAC match of all time at that time. And the crowd was completely dead for their stare down in the Rumble in 2011. The I Quit Match and the Rumble '14 match (for the crowd shit-chanting it) are the only matches I'd rewatch.
