Match 6: John Cena vs Brock Lesnar
WWE Title Match... in the middle of the card. I hope the hard split happens soon, like its supposed to, because a lot of titles are losing their heat with the joint PPVs.
Cena comes out rapping about being the new champ, in a Yankees jersey... in Worchester, Mass. Cheap heat anyone? He drops all kinds of former champion names in the lyrics, including Bruno Sammartino, The Three Faces of Foley and Kurt Angle. It was actually pretty cool.
Lesnar comes out with a big bandage on his head from the chain shot. They make a big deal out of it. I smell "crimson mask" already.
Ok match, but Lesnar showed a lot of green psychologically compared to Cena, who is quickly becoming one of the best psychological wrestlers in the WWE. Cena carried lesnar through much of the match, but 3/4 in Lesnar took control and the match was just a botch after that. Good beginning, better middle, and crappy anti-climactic ending that made Cena look like a punk.
Winner: Lesnar retains
Side note: Cena is getting face pops. The WWE better pay attention and make him less, well, entertaining if they want to keep him a heel.
