10 Wrestling Matches You Won't Believe Have Never Happened In WWE

2. John Cena Vs. Samoa Joe

John Cena vs. Samoa Joe has been on many people’s prospective WrestleMania cards for the last couple of years, but the longtime dream match is still yet to materialise. Injuries are to blame for a portion of that, but the bigger issue is that WWE creative seems to prefer other options for both men all of the time,

That isn’t entirely true. John Cena is far from being a full time performer these days, and we may well already be at the point where the 16-time World Champion only shows up for big events and showcase matches. Cena has been at the top of the game for 13 years. He deserves the lighter schedule.

Samoa Joe is one of the men who should take up the slack from the Face That Runs The Place, and a high-profile Joe vs. Cena bout is definitely a case of ‘when’ as opposed to ‘if’. WWE often shotguns matches, so it is to the company’s credit that they have managed to hold off on this fantasy bout so far.

Born in the middle of Wales in the middle of the 1980's, John can't quite remember when he started watching wrestling but he has a terrible feeling that Dino Bravo was involved. Now living in Prague, John spends most of his time trying to work out how Tomohiro Ishii still stands upright. His favourite wrestler of all time is Dean Malenko, but really it is Repo Man. He is the author of 'An Illustrated History of Slavic Misery', the best book about the Slavic people that you haven't yet read. You can get that and others from www.poshlostbooks.com.
