Randy Orton will probably go down as Cena's greatest rival of all time, once Johnny Jorts eventually calls it quits. Orton's former tag team partner Edge, however, had a run alongside Cena back in the mid-2000s, peaking in an awe-inspiring TLC match for the WWE Championship at Unforgiven 2006.

Like the I Quit with JBL, Cena showed that he had more to him than five moves and a winning smile, outlasting Edge in a fantastic contest that gave the Cenation leader another arrow to fire at his detractors. Of course, the TLC expert took the lead in much of the contest, including taking an Attitude Adjustment off a ladder through two stacked tables for the final spot of the match.

As Cena looked down at his foe, and after he retrieved the WWE Championship to win, there was a look of conflicting emotion on his face. This is the thing that is so often forgotten with John Cena - he does facial expressions brilliantly when he's not making fart jokes or impersonating The Undertaker. The torment on his face, both from the match itself and what he did to Edge, capped a fantastic contest.
