10 TIMES John Cena Buried The Miz
9. The Third Man
Not since King Kong Bundy at WrestleMania 2 had a 'Show Of Shows' headliner been considered such an afterthought to the star he shared the ring with. In 1986, Hulk Hogan was still dipping in out of feuds with Roddy Piper and Paul Orndorff but was at least able to present Bundy as a theoretical threat thanks to dominance on television by the 'Walking Condominium'.
Cena offered Miz no such respect.
Despite being the Number One Contender to Miz' WWE Title, Cena was instead more distracted with returning irritant The Rock. The storyline called for them to exchange heated words to promote a match a year away, but the stars simply allowed the newly-minted headliner to get lost in space rather than enter their orbit.
There was a sad irony to the single exception in the build-up. Miz was once given the opportunity to assert physical dominance over his megastar foe - when he was in a head-to-toe disguise as The Rock. It was much the same in the match itself. The Champion retained entirely due to Rock's late interference...then took a Rock Bottom for daring to celebrate.
