10. "A Few Good Men" - WrestleMania 21 2005
A favorite movie of mine from the mid-1990s was A Few Good Men starring Tom Cruise, Jack Nicholson, Demi Moore and Kevin Bacon. The most famous scene in the film was a courtroom scene where Cruiser's character was grilling Nicholson while he was on the stand. In the WWE parody, it's John Cena in the Cruise role while JBL is in the Nicholson role. The interesting thing about that is they ended up facing off at WrestleMania 21 with Cena defeating JBL for his first WWE Title. It even featured Jonathon Coachman as the judge. The idea behind the parody is that JBL's character is being asked about why he has help when he tries to defend his title. Of course JBL busted out the "you can't handle the truth" line that is the most famous one from the movie. It wasn't necessarily a hilarious parody, but it was really clever and the dialogue was well written too.
