20 WWE Royal Rumble Undercard Nightmares
2. Randy Orton Vs John Cena (2014)
The first victim of what would prove to be an annual disagreement between the company and their paying audience, the WWE Title match between Randy Orton and John Cena took place against a torrent of abuse hurled at both men and the organisation itself.
Foreshadowing the incomparable disdain they'd heap upon the Royal Rumble match, fans spent the entire contest chanting for sentimental favourites Daniel Bryan and CM Punk, before regaling the match itself with 'This is Awful', 'Boring', and some at one point visibly turning their backs on the ring.
It was not strictly an attack on the wrestlers themselves, but more WWE's insistence on placing them in a match of this standing yet again whilst a deep roster of talent floundered and the company's potential breakout star Bryan was made to take a clean loss in the opener of that very show.
Proving the occasional power of a live crowd, the match was completely destroyed as a result, with even the usually-unflappable Cena appearing rattled by the sheer toxicity.
When Orton sealed the win thanks to help from the Wyatt Family, the live reaction didn't reflect that a conclusion had been reached, just that an unpleasant experience was finally over.
