7 Most Surprising WWE PPV Main Eventers Ever

John Cena has beaten everyone. Literally everyone. Everyone that has ever wrestled.

Well, maybe not quite, but he's certainly thwarted pretty much all who have tried to stop him from rising above hate over the years. Invariably, Big Match John would get the better of his foe in a pay-per-view main event to, y'know, put smiles on faces and all of that good stuff.

Whether it was Umaga, Kurt Angle, Triple H or Batista, Cena would usually be the one standing tall with his hand raised in the air at the end of a supershow. He's had one or two weird PPV opponents over the years (including Bobby Lashley and the aforementioned Sabu), but few are as strange as R-Truth, whom Cena faced at Capitol Punishment in 2011.

Credit to WWE for putting someone new into the mix and taking a chance of the bizarre R-Truth, but it was an experiment that didn't exactly work. The build up was good, with Truth delivering some very entertaining promos, but it just didn't deliver on the night.

The ring work was pedestrian and the finish was a joke (a child at ringside threw a drink in Truth's face, then Cena threw him back in the ring and AA'd him for the win). And that was that for Truth's main event run, as he went on to have a lucrative career as painfully unfunny comedy relief which has lasted over five years now.
