10 Defining Matches That Make People Hate John Cena

1. John Cena vs. Bray Wyatt (Last Man Standing Match) - Payback 2014

All the way back in 2007, John Cena buried Umaga in a pretty ridiculous ending to a Last Man Standing match. His career was never the same following that contest - and we can only pray the same does not happen to Bray Wyatt. Wyatt is an absolutely huge star in the making, and has all the tools to go to the very top end of the WWE. His character is outstanding, and the fans seem to be into him. Therefore, the decision to have him lose (clean) to Cena in a Last Man Standing match is yet another absurd decision, and another reason why Cena is so disliked. It wouldn't have hurt Cena's standing one bit if he had put Wyatt over here, but instead, we had to see him win the contest by throwing a whole heap of backstage equipment on top of his body. This was after Cena had been taken apart by Wyatt, Erick Rowan and Luke Harper. This is essentially the main problem with John Cena's character. Nobody has an issue with him occasionally winning these kinds of contests - but after being taken apart for so long, coming back and winning from nowhere is a huge, huge problem. That is exactly what buries people.
