8. Batista
Unquestionably, John Cena and Batista were the two biggest stars in the Ruthless Aggression era. Their paths crossed in 2008, but in 2010, they finally had a feud that lasted months. Cena won and lost the WWE Championship on the same night at Elimination Chamber 2010, with Batista the beneficiary. Cena wasn’t going to let that slide for long, and he was locked in on regaining the WWE Championship from the Animal at WrestleMania XXVI.
Cena and Batista’s WWE Championship match was an underrated clash. Both competitors threw the kitchen sink at each other in a superb battle. Nevertheless, Cena got his revenge to become a nine-time WWE world champion.
