10 Horrible WWE Feuds That Led To Great Matches
7. John Cena’s 'Firefly Fun House’ Trip
Hopes weren't high for the second 'Mania scrap between John Cena and Bray Wyatt when the latter's alter ego 'Fiend' character challenged JC in late-February 2020. Crowds were still in buildings at that point pre-pandemic, so there was some buzz, but everyone figured the match would be another "Super Cena" exhibition.
Not quite.
The world wasn't prepared for what happened next. Cena and Wyatt worked a bonkers 'Firefly Fun House' cinematic masterpiece that not only followed the prior evening's 'Boneyard' belter but also could've been a total disaster generally. It had John joining the nWo and reprising his old gimmicks, for crying out loud!
WWE's booking pre-WrestleMania was nothing to write home about. They handed both guys the most flimsy amount of material to work with, then expected miracles. That faith was well-placed, 'cause Cena and Bray came out swinging with one of the greatest "bizarro world" spectacles ever committed to tape.
