John Cena vs JBL at Wrestlemania 21

[juliusdaviesd]

Wonder how Cena claims to be a wrestler, without him ever having to wrestle. All he does is come back in the end with his 5 moves of doom

And how excellent is Tazz on analyst commentary! Cole and Lawler make it absolutely blow now.

[juliusdaviesd]

Notice Teddy's name was mentioned; This match was in 2005, Now its 2012. Which made me realize the good old playa Teddy Long has been in charge of Smackdown for more than 7 years!

Hows that for a LONG reign!

As for this match, hardly a 5 star one, to think Cena was so stale even then, when he was priming! I can't believe I was actually rooting for him then!

[HaveApascalSwirl]

I clicked through this video minute by minute and Cena was getting his ass kicked every single time. Except for the end when he done a botched arm drag and his five moves of doom. Fucking piece of shit.

[BlackenedForLife]

I wish JBL had won.

[TMADE114]

Why did they change it from FU to the AA? Thats dumb

[YohannR28]

@TMADE114 because of the PG Era FU (Fuck You)

[archerboy316]

F U ftw fuck the attitude adjustment

[toredtobluetoblack]

YOU SON OF A BITCH

[jmwes12]

i love JBL's HEEL character

[ughuarf]

This match was so dumb. JBL was champ for like 8 1/2 months and beat legends like Eddie Guerrero, Booker T, Big Show and Undertaker in extreme matches like Last Ride, BarbWire Steel Cage, Texas Bullrope and then he lost it to John Cena after like 4 moves......unbelievable crap, boring too

[MrFool59]

@ughuarf didn't he cheat in all those matches?

[shedgen0]

Cena was still cool here. Fucking murdered wrestling the next thursday

[MrMarcelo223]

The crowd is too quiet, LOL, they knew Cena would become boring one day, they was right!! I love this crowd!!!! HOLLYWOOD ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[billyjack95]

This is where the WWe just went completly downhill.

[4lifepoemwriter25]

this is one of my favorite matches

[ramlall210]

I didnt enjoy this match at wrestlemania.

[ricardesco93]

was this the main event for this wrestlemania or was it batista vs hhh?

[SpazzStayGwappin]

@ricardesco93 batista and Hhh

[295Amere]

did he bite the belt

[BlackLeather92]

A weak match that does not come close to the expectations that come with a Wrestlemania main event. Fortunately, the Cena-JBL rivalry would get the payoff it deserved with the "I Quit" match at Judgement Day, a match that has turned out to be one of the best in the careers of both wrestlers.

[joemack2109]

that is because brock lesnar left the wwe in 2004 at wrestlemania and they was desparate for a new smackdown leader at that time

[CallmeSurvivor]

this match sucked.

[nateplaya88]

JBL's title reign was pretty decent.Seems like every paper-view he defended it I thought he would lose.

[SuperOldschool89]

The night a legend is born.

[BlueJokers]

the first of 100 wwe title wins fro cena lol

[hcaz731]

last time cena was cool to watch

[FireMarshallBilll]

John Cena's a great wrestler with great talent. Vince ruined him with his "super cena" gimmick. But what should I expect from elitists from the IWC who think everyone who is popular sucks.

[BabyGangsta718]

back when john cena was good....

[ChristianBaleBatman]

BEST HEEL EVER

JOHN BRADSHAW LAYFIELD

[TheHabitman]

Although Cena hit different moves from the ones he does today, it was still the same sequence. This bout was carried by JBL, save for the last 4 minutes where Cole would say "vintage Cena".

The crowd was dead, and I can't blame them. It was a generic match with a horrible finish.

[HinataChan30]

This was the turning point. WrestleMania 21 was the inception of the 'Cena Era'.

I could definitely regard this one of the most important pro wrestling matches of the new millennium, for better or worse.

[Weezing336]

Very Boring match

[YoungBasedJoel]

@dennishilliard

My brother typed that

[VengeanceUnforgiven]

Hundred dollar Bradshaw seems legit! hahaha xD

[Cardinalskiller22]

back then at least john cena could take a bump now he lands on his ass all the time idc if u had surgery or not fuckin take it i have to

[YoungBasedJoel]

The day WWE started to die

[abielha]

@YoungBasedJoel because cena won the wwe champion, became more successful and you constantly started dicksucking and pretended like you never liked him when you used to suck mens dick. oh wow smh

[abielha]

@YoungBasedJoel because cena won the wwe champion, became more successful than you will ever be and you constantly started dicksucking and pretended like you never liked him when you used to suck mens dick. oh wow smh

[Mooseboy2358]

And now we know why he changed the title - he ate the old one.

[dennishilliard]

@Mooseboy2358 Shut up!

[WWERULEZ1000]

@Mooseboy2358 John Cena does a have a history of eating things. For instance, he ate the old united states title and ate a good chunk of the old US spinner belt. He even ate a sharpie that was once used to autograph a Julius Erving jersey during No Mercy 2004. He ain't human man...

[jaks8889]

i lost my

[machinaking]

cena changed becuase of this!!! fuckyou puto!!!!

[michaelsparrow856]

firts time for "my time is now"

[luminafire]

@michaelsparrow856 No he used it once on the Smackdown right before

[McFresh54]

@luminafire no he didn't

[luminafire]

@McFresh54 Yes he did.

[luigi50518]

thanks 4 uploading this man, i've always wanted 2 see this match

[dooom560]

It's been all downhill from here......

[ImBigAndProud]

@dooom560 not from here from about 2009 its wen cena started gettin boring and ppl started booing him

[SuperOldschool89]

@dooom560 quit hating

[DPReturnsTV]

@SuperOldschool89 stupid cena fan

[SuperOldschool89]

@DPReturnsTV dumbass hater

[DPReturnsTV]

@SuperOldschool89 i know that you don't know that WWE is a scripted show with gimmicks.

Stupid Cena PG Pig

[SuperOldschool89]

@DPReturnsTV oh yeah i wouldnt know even though ive been watch WWF/WWE since i was a kid. -_- grow up.

[DPReturnsTV]

@SuperOldschool89 im 27 and im watching WWE/WWF/WCW since the 90's

[SuperOldschool89]

@DPReturnsTV ok good for you. so have i.

[adnanaliable]

i miss the old wwe championship belt.

[54Mrpizzaman]

@adnanaliable well i dont

[thejoker22ful]

this was a breaking point of the wwe.first championship of cena.and day by day wwe getting worse becouse of this picture

[619wwebmw]

Best Celebration by John ever!! Of course it was his first WWE Title..He kept it till New Year's Revolution 2006 and won it back at Royal Rumble...True champ!!!

[Justine20366]

16:35-38 randy orton moment (pose)

[ChristianBaleBatman]

JBL should return. He was a great champion. I love his entrance. And he kept the title 242 days, much longer than all the others today

[guarddogman]

@ChristianBaleBatman John Cena actually held it for little over a year

[619wwebmw]

@ChristianBaleBatman JBL was good but arragant

[ChristianBaleBatman]

@619wwebmw

He was a heel

he had to be arrogant. He was awesome

[ThedeadlySinister]

@ChristianBaleBatman This was in 05, he hasn't been heel since '03

[jorfizzle23]

this is john cena's first wwe champ. win correct

[SuperOldschool89]

@jorfizzle23 correct

[cronaldofan017]

@jorfizzle23 correct

[ajbahus]

This was not a very good match. Cena hits the five moves of doom and wins after getting dominated the whole match. Cena would go on to have better matches at WM.

[MendezVLR]

By the way Cena has got to change his theme song

[MendezVLR]

that shud have been Eddie vs Jbl

[Mr1131988]

@MendezVLR But Eddie and JBL had so many matches in 2004. Cena was a fresh face at that time though I'm not a fan of his at all.

[XIXIPCUNNINGHAMIXIX]

Wow, when Cena actually got a decent reaction at a WreslteMania... :O

[chapin28]

that was the best 18 min nap i ever had

[Mr1131988]

Wow what a dumbass crowd. If there was ever a time to cheer John Cena at the top of your lungs, this night was it.

[Mr1131988]

Easily one of the worst main events in Wrestlemania history. This match was so hyped all for this? Typical SuperCena match. No offense at the beginning, then he comes back with a flurry and wins.

[MendezVLR]

@Mr1131988 ur absolutely right if anything it should have been eddie guerrero trying to win back his champ

[Nexusucks1423]

now its WWEFanNation

[narutofan9005]

john cena vs JBL is the most AWESOME match ive ever seen

[narutofan9005]

forget the m kk

[narutofan9005]

john cena if u want the people tom stop booing u just turn heel man its necessary if u have to do it

[williamtrevormcneil]

@narutofan9005 the irony in that comment, cant believe its the highest rated

you know what heel means right? you're basically telling him to get everyone to start booing and hating him to stop people from booing and hating him

i dont think its a heel turn he needs, i think he needs a new character or gimmick, new move set

[BarackSays]

@narutofan9005 That kind of defeats the purpose of turning heel.

[ddj1550]

@narutofan9005 No. For starters John Cena doesn't make that choice. It's Vince McMahon and the rest of the creative team... and after a year in which Cena made the WWE $106 million it won't happen and shouldn't happen any time soon...

[jamarrking2010]

@narutofan9005 he has 2 tho cuz all of the greats have turned heel at one point or another and look how their career took off, the rock austin edge hell even my fav taker, bt its goin 2 happen soon, and if nt vince will have had droped da ball again!!!!!

[BlackLeather92]

@narutofan9005 Wait...so to get people to stop booing him, he needs to become a heel, who are supposed to be booed.

I fail to see the logic here.

[narutofan9005]

J-ust

B-orn

[ygogtgot]

@Naruto17141 Really get a life there half of on Ebay

[ChristianCagefan100]

I love the old john cena much better than the new one. I was happy that he won the WWE championship at the time, but damn this match sucked.

[TimAndHuliBeats]

hey everyone if you like to dance and want to learn some cool dance moves please check out my music video

[bzapple33]

Awesome entrance by JBL

[ssbbkart]

YOU SON OF A BITCH!!! 16:01 

[Tarynus]

The first Wrestlemania main event I ever watched & man, what a fantastic match

Coincidentally, JBL & John Cena's first WWE Championship runs both lasted for 280 days (JBL - June 27 2004 to April 3rd 2005 / Cena - April 3rd to January 8th 2006)

[commanderAnzal]

Man It woulda been awesome if cena had a gang in wwe

[theawesome1rjc]

so much hope for cena

all ruined by the script writers

cena right now should be a chain gang rapper

[Deion3865]

lol if you listen there are booes here for cena at his five knuckle shuffle.

[bestyoueverhadx3]

so crazy how cena has changed

[SuperkickKO]

the beginning of the end

[BigDaddy6065]

THIS is were it all started...

[henryblancofan]

and that was the last we saw of that belt

[SnApBaCkKidD1232]

This is the Cena I want to see bring this mutherfuckin Cena back

[WorldStarUnderGround]

Epic JBL Entrance !

[UnderTheWire85]

The Day the WWE changed forever---when Cena took the reigns of the business

[TheBlueSanity]

THIS IS THE CENA WE WANT THIS WAS CENA AT HIS BEST

[YaBoiiDru]

Lmao !!! 16:02 - 16:05 USonOfAhBiitchhh!

[lebronshaqfaction]

wow wonder if cena held that wwe belt for 10 months like jbl did.. omg rating would had went downhill fast

[parrkind]

@lebronshaqfaction he held it longer then that

[crimsonECH1DNA]

@lebronshaqfaction You do know he didn't drop the title until the following year right?

[YoungTJP]

@lebronshaqfaction he pretty much did have it that long

[MachoManMark]

their i quit match made this look like shit

[dakliq420]

Back when fans was very pro cena...seems like forever

[Sy3D79]

hate him or love him, JBL had some of the craziest matches ever

[Bawse92]

Rip gangsta cena fuck u super faggot cena

[kevin213ism]

@Bawse92 you did know it was the board of directors of the wwe made every wrestler turn pg-______- i miss gangsta cena

[HaveApascalSwirl]

LONG LIVE THE WRESTLING GOD.

JBL ftw.

[lsufa]

This crowd was dead as hell.

[MahdiRanger]

At the time i was 13, I loved this match!

I now am 20, I now can say this is a terrible SD main event , a boring WWE championship match, and I loved Cena then, but my God if he isnt just as bad then and now. Same thing, closelines and few moves. We just liked his rapper gimmick, it blinded us from what a lackluster wrestler he is.

Lastly Dead Crowd doesnt help, neither do the smart fans who knew Cena wasnt ready and are booing in the background

[FireKracker44]

this was when cena knew how to sell properly.

[sonnyjason2]

What a rushed ending. Cena is the same guy except he is not into Hip Hop anymore.

[2ndVizion]

you can start hearing the fans booing him...was a better heel

[Fabululous]

john cena, the best champion EVER!! JBL and Edge both suck and wud happily come and smack them silly

[uncanesciolto]

3:47 it's his fault that we have that  crappy spinner belt!

[capo2006s]

cena sucks

[leefunkeylocks24]

18:23----ITS DELICIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[imitche31]

The Day Cena Officially became the man Love him or Hate him

[domski93]

the most cheers cena ever got !

[Icemanbk]

lol i loved that chain gang chain he used to wear

[lebronshaqfaction]

@Icemanbk now he wears a fucking dogtag

[devendrapsharma]

@Icemanbk HE FORGOT HIS CHAIN AFTER THE MATCH!!!

[Klauser69]

This doesn't compare when Eddie and Benoit won wrestlemania de year before.

[AnEternalEnigma]

What a dead crowd

[Trypherian]

I have said it befor and I will say it again John Cena is overrated no talent I have been to a live event and the fans boo the shit out of him so why do they let him stay face he needs a heel turn and even then I don't think he would do any better his moves are limited I would rather see Linda McMAhaon in the ring she would be more entertaining

[SuperOldschool89]

@Trypherian hater smh

[SteelC1tyK1ng]

the match that ruined the company

[SuperOldschool89]

@SteelC1tyK1ng quit hating

[SteelC1tyK1ng]

@SuperOldschool89 ok

[TrueGamerX]
