John Cena vs. The Rock is the greatest WrestleMania match of all time, according to WWE star (Exclusive)
NXT star Roxanne Perez thinks John Cena and The Rock's match from WrestleMania 28 is the greatest bout in the event's history.
The seeds for the match were sown at WrestleMania 27, where The Brahma Bull cost Cena the chance to win the WWE Championship in the main event against The Miz. The clash was made official for the following year's WrestleMania on the very next episode of RAW. While viewers were expecting The Leader of the Cenation to secure the win, WWE swerved fans by having The Rock go over.
Though it was billed as a once-in-a-lifetime encounter, the duo competed yet again at WrestleMania 29, where John Cena got his revenge. In a chat with Emily Mae of Sportskeeda Wrestling, Roxanne Perez was asked which WrestleMania match was the greatest according to her. She picked Cena vs. The Rock from 'Mania 28.
Furthermore, Perez also mentioned Shawn Michaels and The Undertaker's match from WrestleMania 25 as another one of her favorites.
"I think, honestly, once-in-a-lifetime John Cena vs. The Rock match. That was my s**t when I was a kid. I loved the program that they had. But I also like The Undertaker; that was really, really good, him vs. Shawn Michaels. There are so many," said Roxanne Perez. (3:49 - 4:14)
