10 Things WWE Wants You To Forget About WrestleMania 29

5. Rock-Cena II Wasn't As Good As Rock-Cena I

At WrestleMania 28, The Rock took on John Cena in what was one of the most hyped matches in company history. In one corner was the man whose charisma and skill made him the top star of WWE's most popular era (and catapulted him to mainstream superstardom), and in the other was the man who had carried the company in the years since. That bout exceeded the hype, but the rematch fell short of the original in just about every way. Rock-Cena II was built up poorly, with the two men barely referencing each other until the week before the show. The actual match was flat compared to its predecessor, simply not able to match the quality of the previous year's encounter. Business reflected the fact that Rock-Cena II was weaker than Rock-Cena I, too: WrestleMania 28 garnered 1,217,000 Pay-Per-View buys, while 29 fell to 1,048,000 buys.
