What Made John Cena vs The Rock So Special? (WrestleMania 28)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 фев 2022
- It was 2012, and after a year of build up we were finally getting a match that was billed as 'Once in a Lifetime', it was going to be The Rock in his first Wrestlemania match back from Hollywood up against John Cena.. Need I say anymore? Icon vs Icon, Legend vs Legend. We sadly cannot go back in time to this, but we can get nostalgic about it right?

I miss u
But that gm mode doe
Pav, have you thought of collaborating with SuperkickStudios channel? Both of you are Canadian, have similarities in ancestry and make amazing videos! My fav channels, in addition to W^3!
glad to have you back!
As a cena fan that loss broke me as kid 😂
Fax was like watching super man lose
At least he got redemption at 29
i cried bro
Facts
Yeah man I was shocked that my hero lost the biggest match of his career.
This genuinely felt like the biggest match ever growing up.
It technically is👀, highest Mania buy rate
@Miguel Cena lmaoooooo
@Miguel Cena If he was in the main event then it wouldn't have become the most viewed mania cena is a bigger draw than punk ever was.
@Miguel Cena haha yeah right, the rock would've carried his ass drawing money
@Miguel Cena WM 29 yeah maybe he should’ve but for 28 no not at all
I’ll never forget the hype that was WrestleMania 28. I remember the whole buildup of it from Survivor Series 2011 all the way to WrestleMania itself, it was so surreal. This was also the first time of me seeing The Rock in the ring and I was hyped and he was facing my all time favorite, John Cena? Hell yeah! This was a win win for me. Me and my family enjoyed this match from top to bottom and we applauded both men for giving us a classic we can remember for generations to come. So many memories, man.😌
You're back with yet another comment
Same, as an 8 year old at the time it was my first time seeing The Rock wrestle live, and since I was a huge Cena fan I was mad when Rock won but he put on an all-time great performance that night especially after being inactive 8 years.
Y2J vs CM storyline, end of an era and once in a life time etc the last great wrestlemania
@@grandcanyon-fu9zt I still won't forget seeing the end of an era match through tv back then and when undertaker got hit with sweet chin music and pedigree, everyone thought that streak would die that night...
The WrestleMania match of my childhood! This was the Rock/Hogan at WM-X8 of our generation! Man, good times...
That's exactly why I thought Cena was gonna win
Which kinda makes it better because everyone predicted Cena would win but he actually losses.
This was literally the PG Era's Rock vs. Hogan.
Also as a 12 year old Cena fan, this match stressed me out so much. I remember my grandma and I were hugging each other and crying.
Uhhhhh no PG Rock never existed and thank god because the PG Era is just trash. Hogan and the rock were in the Ruthless Aggression Era and I remember that match at WM 18. PG era or Universe Era was 2008 to well now. 🤢🤮
This entire rivalry was done masterfully to a t the fact that they carried it over to the next year and build Cena from the ground and then made him the Champ was absolutely brilliant, one of the greatest long term booking of all time
The first WrestleMania I ever paid for and watched. One of the best of all time, in my opinion. I'll never forget sitting on my couch downstairs eating so much food being on the edge of my seat for this, HHH vs Taker, and Punk vs Jericho.
Top 5 mania for me i was there
I was visiting my family in Florida and my soul left my body when Cena lost.
hhh vs taker the end of an era lmao legit epic brawl
I was 7 at the time of watching this. I was a massive Cena fan due to his "never give up" persona as I had ongoing family issues so it was a message to me to never give up and keep being positive. When the refs hand hit the mat for a 3rd time and I saw Cena sitting at the ramp I straight up cried bro, I thought it was the end for him high key, I remember WWE for the rematch made it out like this loss sparked his divorce and stuff it was a weird time.
bro had family issues at the age of 7
@@punch444 just be grateful you didn’t bro not ever house hold is perfect.
@@punch444 yeah man, its a long story. Would rather keep it private. Didn't have the best upbringing bro. Would appreciate it if you were respectful of that.
@@DREDR-jn8nw thanks man, appreciate that 💙
@@GeorgeM2809 my fault bro i apologize
This feud was the peak of 2012 and i remember when I saw it like it was yesterday
Also in 2012, LeBron win his first ring in Miami, Kendrick Lamar GKMC was a classic, Eli Manning beats Tom Brady again, Gangnam Style was a hit, both Adrian Peterson & Calvin Johnson had a banger szn, CM Punk was great, Team Hell No plus The Yes Chant was amazing, Project X was🔥, Brock Freaking Lesnar returns on Raw after Mania. 2012 was a solid year man🔥🔥
I feel like after 2012 the world hasn’t been the same
I really think they should have kept this “Once in a Lifetime” This match was special, and I felt the rematch was unnecessary
It should've been a Rock/Cena/Punk triple threat instead
I agree rock should have putted cena over at mania and at mania 29 a triple threat match.
@@johntitor7357 nah rock wasn’t gonna lose in Miami lol
@@theitfactorjameswheezer2852 he should have edge lost to cena in his hometown and cena was a full timer so he should have won anyways he got his redemption the following year.
true but with cena winning the was no need for rock to win
The story, the hype, the unpredictably was just perfect
This was the first mania I watched live. My dad said he’d order it for me if I made good grades on my report card, I was trying my ass off to get them up lol. I begged for the dvd once it came out, just wanted to relive it over and over. Still my favorite show 10 years later, doubt I’ll ever feel the magic I felt from watching this as a kid again
If it hard to get good grades you have no future
@@Maradala u right
What a time to be alive. I’d stopped watching in 2010 with the Nexus and Cena angle but I ordered this last minute on ppv 2 years later. I remember feeling the same way you did about the ending, seeing Cena on the ramp with that look of despair, I felt for him. I was like damn… what’re they gonna do next with Cena. Then the next night on Raw Cena is in the ring, Brock Lesnar’s music hit after 8 years and he came down to the ring to F5 his ass 😂😂 I popped hard, my heart sank and my jaw dropped, I was in disbelief jumping and laughing lol. I’m typing this vividly remembering the 24hrs between Mania and the Raw after were crazy. Never had WWE evoked that much emotion in me before and they never replicated that feeling after. I don’t think they ever will be able to spark like that again tbh.
I remember watching Wrestlemania 27 and seeing the Promo AD for Mania 28 the following year. Being that I lived 15 minutes from the Stadium, all I did those next 8-9 months was beg my mother for tickets to this show. From Good Grades to Chores, as a 9 year old I did it all. And on that day in February when I opened up that TicketMaster Envelope and Saw tickets to one of the biggest spectacles this industry has to offer, it was one of the most overwhelming days of my life. But Fast forward to April 1st, that day felt like eternity. From walking on the street towards the Stadium. Seeing people outside the gates having promo battles and wrestling matches was pretty cool. But the moment that got me was the second I went through the curtains and saw the stage and the canopy with the cell. I never cried so many tears although this was only the first of 3 second was when taker kicked out of the Sweet Chin Music and Pedigree combo and the 3rd was Tears of Joy when The Rock Won and he does his signature pose and the Pyro goes off around Sun Life. Mania 28 will probably be the one memory that will forever live in my mind heart and soul. Although the Industry may not be the same, whether it evolves or not, I will often flashback to this night for one reason and one reason only: This night made me realize why I fell in Love with Professional Wrestling at the age of 3 and still Love it to this day.💯‼️
The last mega match we had, I can’t think of anything as of recent that has come close to Rock vs Cena. It was also my dream match for the longest time
What about rock coming now
@@BigSlangVideo that wrestlemaia has highest ppv buy record of all time, every other rivalry is blunt to beat that hype between rock vs john
This Buildup/Match is better than what we got today in the WWE
I was 13 when this happened in Miami, plus I remembered purchasing it on Blue ray before WWE network came out. This match still to this day one of the biggest greatest dream matches of all time.
This was the last big match in WWE and we probably won’t see one bigger than this ever again.
I will always remember 2012 WWE. That was the year I really started getting into it and watched it every week all year long
This was special for me because John Cena was my favorite wrestler from 2003-2009. Back in 2004 - 2006, I would go on RUclips and watch Cena’s matches and look for him VS The Rock, but found nothing but fan made matches. When The Rock returned Punk was the only reason why I watched wrestling and seeing The Rock return made things interesting. I remember hearing how Cena and The Rock didn’t get along and was hoping WWE would use that, and they did. It was great and my inner child was so excited!
This was fucking huge at the time. I remember being so hyped and even friends of mine who stopped watching wrestling watched this and we were all on Cena's side.
Also, i love the way you tell stories. You're just a real One and you don't care about the smarks' opinions. You must speak your mind and you funny af 😂😂.
Love your vídeos bro, support from Portugal 🇵🇹
I was Cenation, I couldn’t go against him after he brought me into WWE
My favorite match of all time. It was built beautifully, and they absolutely delivered. Two of the greatest to ever step into a squared circle, arguably the two biggest WWE wrestlers of all time, who had legitimate beef with each other, just going at, in the Main Event of WrestleMania.
It doesn't get bigger than that for me.
this was so iconic like honestly i remember being a 5 year old watching this fued on youtube and this is one of the reason I got so hooked to wrestling the promos the segments everything about that fued was simply amazing what a time to be alive i remember watching john cena rapping and was blown away cause i was a kid growing up in the pg era so i knew nothing about that cena and of course i was team cena all the way and iu was so happy when he won the next year man the 2010s was an awesome decade wa a time to be alive i am glad yall are giving my era the love and attention it deserved later
Yo for real watching promos on YT hits different
@@MN_2003 facts
Damn man hearing you talk about this brought back so many memories and legit gave me goosebumps. Gotta love it I was always a rock fan. He got me back into wrestling when he came back. Keep up the amazing work !
I’ve yet to see a match replicate this energy and hype around it. Icon Vs Icon. I remember being so hyped about this match and it was crazy because wrestling had been going really downhill at this time and as someone who grew up watching wrestling since I was a baby I was in and out with the product around this time. but this match fully brought me back and after this match happened I could never really stop watching wrestling. Even though I’m not a fan of part timers coming back and main eventing/stealing the spotlight from current roster members. Matches like these can be done right and capture that lighting in a bottle like hogan and rock did years prior to 2012. I wish wrestlers today in WWE could be built up as strong and as important so we could get matches like these nowadays.
I was 19 at this time of this and I was torn on who to cheer for. As a small kid I grew up watching rock every week on raw and Smackdown, but as a preteen and teenager I was watching Cena every week. The nostalgia of doctor of thuganomics Cena returning had me hype though.
There is no match in wrestling history that meant more to me than Rock vs Cena - Once in a Lifetime. Such a special time ❤️
Love to see u upload
2012 what a time to be alive sad we cant ever go back 😔 but what made this match was attitude era best vs ruthless agression era best at the beginning of like social media era those twitter jabs i think it was made the heat feel real between the 2
Literally my favorite match growing up. There was so much I loved about the build up. 1) Yes I know the time they announced it was way too early, but it kinda makes sense in a way. 2) The fight wasn’t being built up every week on raw or smack down which is so genius because it kinda seemed (well at least to me) like they were preparing John cena for the match throughout the year with cm punk, Alberto del Río, Kane, r-truth. Then when the time finally came they actually built the fight up. I personally didn’t like that they teamed up at SS 2011 but hey it’s whatever. 3) The way wwe had ppl decide who to root for. One side was the NEW face of the company who needs to win this fight in order to be who he says he is (John Cena). The other side is the peoples champion, the one who made people fall in love with wwe, and a long awaited ring return (The Rock). 4) Also I know people don’t really pay attention or just don’t care for the promos, but holy hell these promos were great! It felt like this was the last ever match for the company lmao. 5) As good as the build up was the match was great as well. Even tho I was a team cena kid at the time I gotta admit now that I’m much older and aware, the winner was correct. I liked how he John cena lost, but I hate how they booked him after this match. They literally did a Roman reigns (before Roman was there obviously). Still this match to me was amazing.
Another great video, you're the best at creating nostalgia. always transports me back to my childhood !!
I still remember in 2012 , In India live WWE ppv were not shown (they were shown a week later) and I remember I couldn’t wait for this match in particular, fighting my school friends that cena would beat rock but the day arrived I came back to home from school avoiding any spoilers possible but my friend Sms’ed me the result that Rock beat cena and I got upset the whole week. Still am little upset that cena lost that match XD
But a year later in 2013 I watched the match live through a bootleg website in 240p and jumped when cena pinned rock
Ha bhai, I watched mania 28 on tv and got upset after cena lost after all he was my hero.
@@johntitor7357feel ya brother
@@BodybuildingInsider the moment when cena was siting on the ramp broke me.
Invincible was the one of the best choices for the Wrestlemania theme song. Listening to it always makes me think about this match. So goddamn nostalgic
I will never forget this hype. I was 9 years old when this Wrestlemania happened and I was team Cena all the way.
It was my first WrestleMania. The Hype was sooo fking crazy, all the video packages, songs, promos, it truly was a once in a life time. Can't remember any match as big as that one in all these years.
I was only 13 at the time so I was Team Cena all the way, I legit cried when Rock beat him. But looking back on it 10 years later, the 1 hype for this match was unreal, the year of build up, the promos. there's a reason why WM28 is the highest-grossing wrestling PPV of all time, THIS.
We love you Pav🐐your videos are the best way to get the day started
Wrestlemania 28 was special for me. I have a big poster of this Wrestlemania on my wall. I remember I was 6 years old and I was a big fan John Cena. I didn’t know the Rock too much because I was just 6 but I was really hyped for this match. I remember that crazy hell in the cell match between Undertaker and Triple H. I also remember how pissed I was that I had to go to bed right when Rock and Cena came on but I watched it the next day. It’s crazy that this Wrestlemania was 10 years ago. Damn it feels like my childhood went by fast. now I’m 16 and I’m bout to start wrestling training this year. The Rock and Cena inspired me to become a wrestler. I can’t wait to start training.
Man as kid I couldn’t stop crying when Cena lost it hurts when he sat on the ramp and seeing it now really showed how amazing WWE use to be💯💪
Boo woo I guess at that point Cena had already got far more than what he deserved won what was it like 12 world titles already 4th main event at wm even though lost 2 wm main events still was in 2 main events in a row at wm sitting there winning about losing to the rock who by the way had never 1 a main event at wm before he was 0 and 3 Cena is a cry baby your being sensitive
It was sad though when the miz beat Cena not when rock did well alot of people would agree that it was sad that miz was even at a wm main event really
this one is very sentimental to me, so long story short last wwf/e ppv I had watched was mania in 2004, sometime during 2004 I had stopped watching wrestling, mainly cuz I was 14 then and got more into music and thought wrestling wasn’t cool if I was going to highschool, well fast forward to December 2011, I randomly decided to watch raw, and started back since then, so let’s get to mania in 2012, as far back as 97 to when I stopped in 2004, me and my dad always watched wrestling together, both wcw and wwf, so when I got back into it, we watched again, mania 2012 was our first wrestlemania we watched since 2004, my dad passed away in june 2020, unexpectedly, so needless to say, this mania and that match, very sentimental to me, glad to see you cover it dude
Nice story man, sorry for your loss btw. 🙏🏽❤
can we just acknowledge how much of a vibe this mania was! from the fans to the location, the logo everything probably one of my favorites ever
This is a great look on this match! Awesome video!
The buildup to this match was surreal l. Two icons from two different eras duking it out on the biggest show of the year. As a Cena fan growing up, I wanted Cena to beat Rock (that obviously didn’t happen until the following Mania). Also, it’s funny how Cena called out the Rock for leaving wrestling to pursue an acting career yet he did the same exact thing a decade later (granted, the Marine movies exist, but that was when Cena was still an active wrestler).
so glad WrestlnGifs talked about my 1st Mania been hoping someone was gonna talk about it
Remember when they said this was “ once in a life time “
2013: we meant twice in a life time
Glad to have you back
loved this match. the build up was solid as well. I still can't believe we actually got this match
I was 16 when this happened, I had 2 older brothers who are huge wrestling fans and I became one too, watching every week. It was a crazy night, I was on the Rock side. Even though I was pissed he left like Cena said for his movie career I was still rooting for the guy who left cause the Rock is one of the best.
I legit thought I was in a dream when Cena vs Rock was announced, two legends going at it. It was amazing.
I love u wrestling gifs keep up the good work
I will never forget this I was 8 years old at the time and I finally got to see two of the biggest stars in wrestling history go at it I had watched all DVD’s of the rock and I had seen cena wrestle on tv and when these two finally went at it I was so excited I couldn’t watch it live but the next day I went to the flea market and bought a copy of it and watched it at my after school program with my friends absolutely nostalgic I’ll never forget the hype that went into this never
GENTLEMEN AND THE 5 LADIES WHO WATCH PAVS VIDEO THIS IS THE VIDEO WE’VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR
Great to see you back Pav ❤️
I was there live. Its scary to think its already been 10 years.
Any time I hear Good Feeling, Memory Remains, or We are Young, always get goosebumps.
I still love wild ones to this day! Brings back wrestleMania hype
To me, the biggest Cena fued was the one against Batista. Those were my two hero’s going at it. I didn’t know who to cheer for. This fued though, I was team Cena. Always. Team Cena 🙏🏼
i was 12/13 during this feud and the biggest john cena fan you could ever meet i idolized him and i hated the rock because of all the stuff he would say about cena lol i took it personally every time but man at the time i knew it was a great feud, a great build up, and an amazing match but looking back at it now we were truly blessed to witness greatness i remember being so sad seeing cena on the ramp looking disappointed after losing i genuinely thought it was the end for cena and that he would never recover from the loss thats how dramatic that match was for me it was like do or die i'll never forget the memories both of them gave us two goats
This match is the highlight of my wrestling childhood. Anticipation was surreal, being the same age as you - I was TEAM BRING IT 100%! Hate on Cena was incredible those days, I used to absolutely hate his childish character back then. Rock winning was a once in a lifetime memory, I live in Europe, so Wrestlemania ended at like 6 in the morning, and straight after it finished I packed my stuff and went to school. I'll never forget the happiness I had that day :D The buildup was amazing, Rock making fun of kid dressed as Cena etc, and the match itself - damn, like you said, I wish I could relieve that.
WM 28 was like peak wwe for me, what a night end of an era, this match , even the punk jericho feud... man it was so good..
Being a fan since the late 90s, I was rolling with Team Bring It. We were so fed up with Cena's hot garbage and him insulting our intelligence. When the ref counted Cena down for the 3, I leaped up in joy. A weight was taken off the backs of old head fans like me. Wrestlemania 28 lived up to the hype.
I went to this wrestlemania when I was 10. Unforgettable night, truly an unforgettable night.
These Paperview videos that you make are sooo good
I still remember this Mania. I never really got to watch Raw or SmackDown because my parents had me on some early bedtime bullshit. I really only got to watch TNA because they would let me DVR iMPACT…
But holyyyyy shit this main event was absolutely electric. As a kid I was right at the age where I was starting to like Edge and Jericho more than Cena and Batista. All I had was old DVDs and VHS and seeing The Rock have a big match in my lifetime was so sick. I was hardcore going for Rock and when he won, that was a personal win for me as a kid.
I also remember Jericho vs Punk being a huge dream match for me. Punk was my current favorite and Jericho was at that point the underrated GOAT, it’s everything I could’ve wanted.
I almost forgot about HHH vs Taker too, Jesus Christ. That match was a super fight if there ever was one. Hell in a Cell at WrestleMania was a pipe dream to me as a kid, I never knew about Bossman and Taker with the noose. Everybody knows that crazy near fall too.
You’re back!!
For me this is the biggest match of all time both are the most famous celebrities and the faces of their respective eras collided in the main event of mania 28 cena should have coz he was working as a full timer but okay and to this day it amazes me that we never got Austin VS Cena it is my dream match.
I’ll never forget wanting to watch this match so badly I begged my mom and did everything I could to get her and my stepdad to buy it and I was told no. It was devastating because I was huge Cena fan and waited for this match for the whole year.
BEST WRESTLING CHANNEL ON THE WHOLE RUclips!!!!
I can.t Believe was almost ten years dream matches John cena vs the rock 2012
I was definitely team Cena. I’m a 27 year old Man so Cena was my Goat growing up . I hated the rock during this feud but once everything was over I liked the rock. It was definitely a big recognize big moment. Best fued of my life 100%
Lmao I was at wrestlemania 28, i was crying when cena lost, good times😂
I was fighting with my dad about this 😅 sitting in front of the tv. Each move shouting at each other, mom yelling at us to keep it down 😅. Memories ❤
These are always awesome
I was always team Rock as he was my guy growing up. Love your passion for the video, you talk how a fan should, nothing about 'creative' or 'booking', but pure focus on the wrestlers doing their thing, Cena's mistake with the people's elbow and rock being a GOAT. Love the passion!
First ppv I watched and I was pumped for this video
WWE will never feel like this again.
My guy is finally back!!! You gotta lmk how summerslam was
Even if the match sucked, this would be the greatest example of long-term booking of all time
great vid my guy
Growing up a fan of both, I’m the one person who couldn’t pick because I loved both so much! I simply felt happy with whoever would win!
How the fuck is this now 10 years ago?!
Like I remember how hyped me and my guys were in school for this and going over different scenarios for the winner. At 15 years old, WWE was my life and all I wanted to do/watch. This was a special moment in time. The promos are the highlights for me, loved them❤️
Dammit, you gon' fuck around and make me watch the match again. I had to catch the match after the fact, as I was still in basic training when it went down.
WWE in 2012 was a magical time for me. And the John Cena and Rock segments leading up to Mania were special. Loved the Cena and Rock Musical Battle and have a soft spot for WrestleMania 28.
Awesome vid
Bro, Red’s probably my fave Taylor Swift album. As a rock & rap fan, T-Swift is an amazing lyricist.
Also damn, I remember as a teen being so hyped for this Wrestlemania cause we got Punk vs Jericho & Cena vs Rock! And then the next day we got Brock Lesnar F5-ing John Cena to hell
The Rock returning to Raw that February where he announced he’d be hosting mania that year got me back into WWE after a long period of me not watching. I think I stopped just as John Cena debuted, so I really didn’t care for the guy, Rock was my hero. Seeing him back in a ring was large in itself but knowing that he’d then main event mania the next year against the biggest draw of the business was unprecedented. I too thought Cena would win the match and shot up from my seat when Rock pinned him clean.
Huge moment. Huge match, and it had Punk vs Jericho for the title. Any other match taking the main event slot from the title match would’ve had an entirely different reaction.
Great video
This year it turns 10 years old, wow, I'm so grateful that I was able to watch this live (I skipped school the next day for this), it felt like the biggest thing ever and I watched this with my uncle and brothers and they all wanted The Rock to win and I was the only one wanting Cena and the match was just so hype, every big move, every pinfall, every submission I was on the edge of my seat and always hoping Cena would win but I remember back then I knew who ever did a finisher first in the match normally loses on PPV's, Cena hit the AA and I got even more nervous about him losing since he did his finisher first and I just hoped that the Rock would stay down for a pinfall or pass/tap out in the STFU and he didn't, Cena went for the People's Elbow and got hit with the Rock Bottom, 1, 2, 3, it was over, I was like heartbroken when Cena lost and when I seen him on the ramp with that face and just sitting there lost I just got so sad, the biggest match ever and my favorite wrestler of all time lost, it hurt so bad and then the day after I went to watch the replay and I was hoping Cena would win somehow (I was a kid) but the result was the same (obviously). I wish we could get this back in wrestling but I don't know if we can, two megastars going 1 on 1, "the world was watching", good times
But bro live telecast of wwe in India started from 2015 then how did you watched the match live.
@@johntitor7357 I'm not from India
@@Eshan- oh but from your name I thought that way so in which country you are living right now.
I was Team Cenation all the way 💪🏾. I'm a John Cena fan then, now and forever.
@Miguel Cena why you say that
This is easily the biggest match of all time, there will never be another big money match with so much buildup and story. Even audiences had absolutely zero clue on who would win this as it could have gone either way, whereas most other matches these days are quite predictable.
Cena vs Rock 1 is something so special it can never be replicated again.
Punk Cena 2011 MITB was also unpredictable
SEÑOR TIMEEE back at it again! 🔥❤️❤️
I really did enjoy this ppv it’s crazy to think I think this was the last ppv I may have ordered . I was in and out of watching at that time too. What a time stamp
Just like Rock vs Hogan back in 2002, this was also one of the matches that had a big fight feel.
Dude I remember the hype for this match, I was in 8th grade going into my freshman year of HS, takes me back to them days
John Cena is the face of your generation. Austin and Rock were the faces of my generation. I did think it was dope they built this match for a year. WWE is missing the long compelling story telling. The stats that transcend the business. Crazy to think this has been 10 years ago.
Now it’s even ironic that John Cena is now a big name in Hollywood and makes sporadic appearances.
I mean honestly the 29 match was still pretty good had this not been marketed as once in a lifetime I’m sure it’d be viewed totally different but this match is one of the greatest in wrestlemania history
Edit this was my second ever wrestling event live my first being rock’s birthday at raw a year prior and I was 11 and turning 12 a month later and it was the best night ever end of an era and John cena vs rock even Jericho vs punk was an awesome match
Dude this was 7th grade for me and it was wild being a knicks fan and seeing linsanity was crazy just cause you mentioned it but my mind exploded when this match was set my favorite of all time going against my attitude era favorite still blows my mind this was 10 years ago
Yo I watch all these videos more than once they’re just so entertaining. And and wrestlania actually got me back into the product and now I watch the ppv’s on peacock
Thank you my brother, means a lot man🙏🏼
