3. Cena Vs. Orton Figures To Be A Stellar Title Match
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zEbnyZWPDQg Few people saw Randy Orton's run in the second half of 2013 coming. Since taking home the Money in the Bank Briefcase last July, Orton has been involved in every single Pay-Per-View Main Event leading up to the Royal Rumble, despite several interruptions to his championship reign by Daniel Bryan, and the month when we all learned what "abeyance" means. Regardless of what happens at the Royal Rumble, Orton's current reign as champion, 97 days by this Sunday, is his second-longest ever, and comes in as the fourth longest by any superstar over the last five years. The three longer reigns? CM Punk (434), The Miz (160), and the current challenger to the strap(s), John Cena (133). Cena losing at TLC was unexpected, but the man who has so often been the face of the WWE looks poised to make the most of his rematch. Since his return from injury in October, John Cena has looked crisp in the ring, and has been contributing fairly regularly on Raw and Smackdown during the buildup to Wrestlemania XXX. Despite nursing several injuries, Cena has continued to take the WWE and its commitments to the community around it on his shoulders while also helping the young roster develop. Now, with a few weeks of rest from in-ring action, he should be in top form come Sunday It's almost silly that seeing a Title Match with no added stipulations is something to be lauded, but the fact that both Cena and Orton get to put on a traditional wrestling match is a fairly significant boon for the Pay-Per-View. Randy Orton has been a phenomenal in-ring worker over the past few months, finding new and profound ways to work in his Powerslam, DDT, and the lighting-quick RKO. John Cena may have been even more interesting this year inside the squared circle, expanding his repertoire of moves to include everything from the old school to the outlandish (his Hurricanrana has actually gotten a lot better) With this rededication to the technical side of wrestling from both superstars, watching them lock up for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship is a good bet to electrify the Pittsburgh crowd. My Pick: John Cena
