Ranking EVERY WWE WrestleMania Main Event From Worst To Best

13. The Rock Vs John Cena (WrestleMania 29)

A superior (though still over-long) sequel to their overwrought original, The Rock and John Cena still indulged too heavily in 'The Champ's finisher kick-out obsession in the final third, but the kinks were decidedly worked out second time around.

The Rock undoubtedly benefitted from his increased schedule. A couple of pay-per-view clashes with CM Punk by no means counted as going back out on the road full-time, but his added involvement as WWE Champion had the desired effect on his all-round presentation as a pro-wrestler rather than guesting Hollywood megastar.
