I just came home from my baseball game when I was in 6th grade and watched this match. I wanted Cena to win, but looking at it now, I know this match wouldn't have had as much historical impact if HBK didn't win.
THIS match was 60:14 the longest one on one match (destpite iron mtches) one of the best matches ever AND the time throught the commercials = to 60:14
Does anybody remember that there was supposed to be a match after this? I think it involved Edge & Randy Orton, but it never took place because this match ended up being over an hour long til the end of the show.
@jVtecProductions Orton got held up and wasn't able to make it to his flight or something so they just let Cena and Michaels go out there and improvise to fill up time.
John cena is flashy and his gimmick is stale but thumbs up if he is a great wrestler. I mean in the ring. His technical skills not his mic skills or his acting
@nikkogamer123 i don't like him. but enjoy watching him. he doesn't even compare to shawn. never has and never will. i dont care how popular cena is. not comparable. the only reason cena is liked the way he is, is because he's the poster boy.
say what u will about cena but when the is right he will show what he is made of. cena hbk edge and orton ruled 2007. this was the 2nd best match in monday night raw history
@McVitiesmuffinjohn I thought it was actually pretty good, showed wrestling ability of Cena that he normally doesn't show. Start slow, with some exciting spots to keep people entertained, then build up to the big finish, that's the classic formula for a good wrestling match, and it was done very well here in my opinion.
@moneyman4426 it was too slow to start in my opinion I got bored of the whole Cena has HBK in a headlock on the ground... again... ohh and again... oh and again wasting 5/6mins haha
@McVitiesmuffinjohn I can understand that definitely. I thought it worked well towards the storytelling of both men starting cautious, but I can definitely see how that can come across as boring. Different ways of looking at it is all I guess
@catouchy what do you mean? cena has had some great matches in his career but no matter how many good matches he has, you i hate cena fans will still hate him. this match is boring? what match are you watching? this is good mat based wrestling, and what do you mean cena is stiff and shawn michaels isn't in his normal form? stop making excuses, cena can wrestle.
@NikkTheRuler man, i'm not a blind hater like you're saying, in fact HBK is my all time favourite and i don't hate John Cena at all, i was fair and realistic in my comment. this match was indeed boring:- it has too many pauses, too many ground action and very few exciting spots. their match at WM is far better than this one, John Cena's wrestlling here seems forced and HBK isn't in his best form, he could've done better. this is my opinion and u're free with yours. thnx for the reply anyway.
jesus if there is any match that proves cena's skill it's this and yet there are still haters here saying "cena sucks, cena can't wrestle" you just watched a fucking good match can't you admit he's a decent wrestler otherwise he wouldn't be employed as one?
the fact that you people sit through 45 minutes of the same thing amazes me, because i do it to. i love long, entertaining, enjoyable matches. with me if the match is going to be 35+ mins that match better be pretty damn good. with this match they didnt even need to try and they wouldve got match of the year. this was a match that succeeded every other match in the last few years after and before this match. wm 25 was the next "awesome" match. and hulk hogan and shawn was the "awesome" match b4.
@tkdskyride yeah bro.. i mean that Taker vs HBK match at mania 25.. IMO... was THE BEST MATCH OF TAKER;S CAREER.. and It was The Best match i have ever seen in my life... one of em that is...
and the Drama and emotion in that match was so great... here are some other greatest matches i have seen Angle vs HBK mania 21 Brock Lesnar vs Angle mania 19.. Benoit vs Angle RR 2003 HBK vs Jericho mania 19... The rock vs angle No Mercy 2000 and so many more give me some of yours?
@jerichorocker1234 true on all of those how bout rock and hogan at WM 18? or the rock and stone cold series? but my 5 favorites gotta be stone cold vs bret heart at WM 13 shawn and cena (here) and benoit hhh and shawn at wm 20 undertaker and shawn at wm 25 and hulk and shawn at summerslam 05. probably put in jericho and shawn at 19.
@tkdskyride i wouldnt put Rock vs Hogan as high as the others i listen. cuz IMO.. it didnt live up to all the hype even though the crowd was electric. i would say Yes to The three rock vs Austin's at mania.... epic..... i didnt care much for Hogan vs HBK since Hogan went over HBK. and it wasnt great IMO...
Benoit vs HHH vs HBK YES.. Epic moment also.... Backlash 2004// HHH vs HBk vs Benoit 2 that one was better then their mania match. also i got many more faveorties :) and give me more of urs?
@jerichorocker1234 yeah true. i did like shawn and bret at wm 12 in the iron man match. idk much more because there really hard to pick these days because you mostly see ok matches and there are so many now that you can't really remember all of the great matches in the past. but yeah what about u?
@tkdskyride i can remember alot of great matches from da past... i named some already here are more
chris benoit vs HHH No Mercy 2000.... Six pack hell in a cell armagadeon 2000.... chris jericho vs the rock No Mercy2001....... Undertaker vs Kurt Angle No Way Out 2006.... Kurt Angle vs brock lesnar vs Big Show vengeance 2003........... HBK vs Angle Vengeance 2005..... Edge vs Randy Orton vengeance 2004
ect... If you didnt see any of these matches.... U Should look them up. ;)
And the reason people don't respect cena is because not of he's. Ability, is because he never looses, that's wee fault thow, the best loose and come back to win and put guys over, cena never does that
And at 39 mins in the STFU u can see cena talking 2 micheals when he dipd his head because they realise the match has gone sooo long haha amazing match and effort by both men!!!!
I was there that night at Earls Court arena Crowd was amazing and i looked away 4 a second and sweet chin music was hit!!!!! I guess it is that quick haha GREAT MATCH !!!!!!
don't care how much shit people give cena... he is a five-star professional wrestler. he's physically capable, and when it comes to telling a story... watch this match to see what he is capable of. and of course, the showstopper is always of the highest ilk in this craft... these two together make instant classics... and this is a bonafide clinic. im surprised wwe gave this gold away for free on raw
This was probably the best match of Cena's career but not even top 10 of HBK lol
