WrestleMania 41: John Cena Cements GOAT Status With 17th World Title
John Cena has delivered harsh words to his critics and even his fans.
It doesn’t matter whether you cheer or boo Cena, because he won his 17th World title from Cody Rhodes last night at WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas.
Rapper Travis Scott, playing the Dennis Rodman role to Cena’s Hollywood Hogan, interfered late in the match.
Rhodes won a tug-of-war with the WWE title belt but chose not to use it. Cena hit a groin kick and blasted Rhodes with the belt to win the championship.
Cena had shared the World title record with Ric Flair, but now Cena stands alone at the top.
CRIME PAYS
Earlier in the night, AJ Styles learned the same “nice guys finish last” lesson.
Karrion Kross tried to convince him to use brass knuckles against Logan Paul. Styles refused, and Paul won the match.
GIVE HER FLOWERS
Iyo Sky defeated Rhea Ripley and Bianca Belair to retain the World women’s title in the opener. Sky hit a moonsault to pin Belair.
Becky Lynch substituted for the injured Bayley. Lynch teamed with Lyra Valkyria to win the WWE women’s tag team title from Liv Morgan & Raquel Rodriguez.
SAY HIS NAME …
… And he appears! Joe Hendry, the TNA champion, made a surprise appearance by losing to Randy Orton in an open challenge match.
Drew McIntyre won a Sin City Street Fight over Damien Priest after a chair-assisted Claymore Kick.
ALL IN THE FAMILY
One day after Rey Mysterio missed WrestleMania due to an injury, his son Dominik Mysterio won the Intercontinental title.
Dirty Dom won a four-way over Finn Balor, Penta, and previous champion Bron Breakker.
The Mysterios become the second father-son duo to win the IC title. “Mr. Perfect” Curt Hennig and Curtis Axel did it first.
