12 Incredible Recent Matches To Get You Back Into WWE

9. John Cena vs. CM Punk - Number One Contender's Match- Raw; February 24, 2013

http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xxtqta_john-cena-vs-cm-punk-wwe-raw-25th-feb-2013_sport John Cena and CM Punk have faced one another more times in the last three years than most Superstars do in an entire career. The standard bearers for the company over that period of time, their feud produced some of the best matches the company has seen over the last decade. With undeniable chemistry and so much history to build on, there was reason to be excited when it was announced that Cena would defend his guaranteed WWE Championship match against CM Punk. Capitalizing on a much larger viewing audience than any that has seen their classic pay-per-view bouts, Cena and Punk delivered a Match of the Year candidate. Counter wrestling and reversals were the name of the game and both competitors played that game masterfully. They had seen so much of each other, particularly in the previous year, that it made sense that they would know how to escape or counter the other's key offensive maneuvers. The finish to the match was great as Cena caught Punk, and the fans, off-guard with a headscissors and finished him with the Attitude Adjustment. The win sent Cena to the main event of WrestleMania 29, a rematch against The Rock, while sending Punk on a path towards an epic encounter with The Undertaker. For fans who may not have had the pleasure to see Punk and Cena's previous encounters, their five-star classic at 2011's Money in the Bank pay-per-view is probably the best place to start. For everyone else, their most recent bout is the perfect way to relive one of the best feuds of the PG Era in WWE.
