5 WWE Wrestlers That John Cena Elevated

CM Punk

The same can be said about CM Punk. He was already a former three-time World Heavyweight Champion before Money in the Bank 2011, but he was not on the level of stars such as Cena or Randy Orton. But then the famous Pipebomb promo on the June 27, 2011, edition of Monday Night Raw changed Punk’s career forever.

Then, Punk defeated Cena in the main event of Money in the Bank and walked out of Chicago as the new WWE Champion. This rivalry with Big Match John launched Punk into the stratosphere, and they had many more awesome matches against each other over the years.
