But it isn’t quite Cena’s greatest effort in Last Man Standing action, with his showdown with Edge at Backlash 2009 just creeping into second place.

There wasn’t any blood to speak of this time, but that didn’t detract from the match at all. The action spilled throughout the arena; inside the ring, outside the ring, into the stands and onto the stage. Memorable moments included a super-FU from the second rope, Edge’s Spear to a diving Cena, as well as another FU which this time sent Edge hurtling into the crowd.

These two went at it for nearly half an hour, and though there were shenanigans involved for the finish, it did result in us seeing a man get chokeslammed into a gigantic lightbulb, the novelty of which is enough to atone for any screwjob antics.

The stunt was made all the more emphatic with a huge display of pyro, as Edge emerged with his title - but perhaps not so much his health- intact.
