7 WWE Dream Matches That Happened Years Apart
4. John Cena Vs. Brock Lesnar
Some two weeks after squashing a young rookie by the name of Randy Orton, the WWE Champion Brock Lesnar came up against another spunky rookie, a young chap fresh out of OVW full of Ruthless Aggression. His name was John Cena, and he wore different coloured trunks every single week.
The match went pretty much the same as the Orton bout, in that Lesnar toyed with his fellow rookie, surviving the briefest of comebacks to eventually put Cena away with an F5. Cena was very much the fourth most important individual in the match, as the commentators spoke mostly of Brock's upcoming battle with The Undertaker.
Lesnar and Cena would have many battles the following year however, with Lesnar coming out on top more often than not. Cena would have to wait until a full decade after their first match to pick up his first singles win against the Beast Incarnate, defeating Lesnar in his return match at Extreme Rules 2012.
