This year’s WrestleMania will be more special because John Cena is going to be a part of it. The WWE-icon-turned-Hollywood star is scheduled to fight Austin Theory for the US Title. And if John Cena wins at WrestleMania 39, he will equal Ric Flair’s record for most US title reigns (6) in history. Talk about records, how many of you know the win/loss record of the 16-time champion at the Show of Shows?
John Cena hasn’t been that much of a WrestleMania guy ever since becoming a Hollywood actor. In fact, he hasn’t had a proper one-on-one encounter after WrestleMania 31.
Since then, he has been a part of three matches at the Showcase of Immortals. One was a Mixed Tag Team Match, one ended in less than 5 minutes, and one was a cinematic match. However, before 2015, John Cena held an outstanding record at WrestleMania.
John Cena, so far, has a win/loss record of 10-5 at WrestleMania
In his 21-years-long WWE career, John Cena has wrestled 15 matches at WrestleMania, out of which, he won 10. The Cenation Leader has also headlined the Show of Shows five times. In fact, he was a part of every mega event between 2004 and 2015.
John Cena started his WrestleMania career by defeating Big Show for the US title in 2004 and held a 4-0 record until losing against Randy Orton in 2008. His last match at the Showcase of Immortals was against Bray Wyatt in 2020.
