Time: 32 seconds

Huzzah, no Money In The Bank for this one. Instead, it was Vincent Kennedy McMahon's incessant need to stomp all over babyface dreams that facilitated Batista's WWE Title win at Elimination Chamber 2010. Right there and then, as big Dave held the belt aloft above Cena's fallen body, WrestleMania XXVI had another title match.

What's more, it only took 32 seconds to set the whole thing up.

As a shattered Cena (spotting a trend?) hauled himself off the mat to celebrate with St. Louis, McMahon romped onto the stage and announced that John would have to work another match. So, seconds following his own WWE Title win inside the Chamber, Cena ate a Spear/Batista Bomb combo and passed the thing over to 'The Animal'.

This 2009-2010 heel run is seriously worth checking out if you missed it before. Batista was in his element as an egotistic rock star.
