10 WrestleMania Matches That Shouldn't Have Sucked (But Did)

7. The Miz vs. John Cena (WrestleMania XXVII)

It's not exactly a bold prediction to guess that The Miz will never headline WrestleMania again. There was a period, from around 2010 onwards, where the guy was rightly acclaimed for stepping up his game and being one of the most improved wrestlers in WWE. Credit where credit is due, Miz pulled himself up by the proverbial boot straps and became a valuable addition to the roster. Simply put, The Miz was a deserved choice to win one of the 'Money In The Bank' Ladder Matches at the initial PPV of the same name, but fans were still pretty surprised when he cashed in his opportunity in November, 2010 on Randy Orton, winning the WWE Title. It felt genuinely fresh, but sadly the man's WrestleMania XXVII main event against John Cena fell largely flat, even with interference from The Rock. It's admirable that WWE management believed in The Miz enough to headline 'Mania, but fans didn't quite buy him at that level yet. It'd take a lot more than a few months at the top of the card to convince people that he was ready for the top line slot of such a prestigious event, and thus the match didn't really end the show with a bang. It should have been much better, admittedly, because The Miz had improved, and Cena himself had pieced together great matches with others.
