10 Great WWE PPV Matches That Ended In Disqualification

10. Randy Orton Vs. John Cena - No Way Out 2008

Believe it or not, but there was a time when John Cena vs. Randy Orton was actually a fresh match! Despite winning his first World Championship a whole eight months before Cena, it took longer for Orton to truly solidify himself as a main event performer, but by 2008 this was certainly the case.

Cena had returned shockingly at the Royal Rumble a month earlier, and after winning it did something that still makes absolutely zero sense today: he decided to have his World Championship shot at No Way Out as opposed to WrestleMania.

Why John, why?

And so the match was made, Randy Orton vs. John Cena at No Way Out for the WWE Championship. The match was still fresh as previously mentioned, and the crowd was absolutely molten for the whole thing.

Now I'm not going to try and tell you that Randy Orton vs. John Cena was a five star classic or anything, because it wasn't, but this was as good as those two were ever going to give us. The finish was different too, as Orton became frustrated that he couldn't put Cena away and struck the referee to get himself disqualified.

It was cheap, but it made sense in a roundabout way.
