Then: John Cena stopped the New Nexus from dominating more of the Rumble when he entered as #22. He'd go on to last a whopping 34 minutes in the match and eliminate seven different wrestlers by tossing them into the front row.

Cena eventually challenged The Miz for the WWE Title at 'Mania XXVII.

Now: 'Big Match John' has largely disappeared to launch a career in Hollywood. He's rumoured for WrestleMania 37, but such token appearances appear to the most fans will get from him in 2021 and beyond.

Cena's latest WWE showing was at last year's 'Mania, for example.
