John Cena record

Cena is the star of Extreme Rules

The absence of John Cena will be a big blow for this year’s Extreme Rules. Not only does his star power contribute to the pay-per-view but he has been also one of the most standout performers since the inception of it. In fact, this will be the first Extreme Rules PPV that Cena will miss (or will he?).  The pay-per-view first was introduced back in 2009 and Cena competed in all the show till 2015.

That is, in case you were having trouble with the numbers, seven matches. And out of those seven, Cena won five, which also makes him the superstar with most wins at Extreme Rules. During his run, Cena competed in two last man standing matches, 2 steel cage matches, and 3 main events.
