Things may have changed in recent years, but there was a time when Cena losing a match was a rarity. In fact, we reached a point where that happening was a pretty big deal, hence why the leader of the Cenation made headlines back in 2018 when he suffered his first clean loss on RAW in nearly a decade!

Well, Wyatt knows how to hit Cena where it hurts as using the Doctor of Thuganomics's chain as a weapon wrapped around his fist to KO John was a nod to an important first for him.

We are, of course, referring to the first time Cena lost a Championship during his WWE career!

That came on the October 5th, 2004 episode of SmackDown when Carlito used the exact same tactic to beat Cena for the United States Championship, a monumental moment in his career at the time. Cena frequently used the same tactic as a heel, of course, so both that and this throwback in WrestleMania's Firefly Fun House match feel like a case of just desserts.
