John Cena’s quest to break the record and become a 17-time WWE World Champion by defeating Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 41 is a few weeks away. Regardless of the outcome, he will set a notable milestone that will set him apart from every other wrestler who has ever stepped into the ring.
WWEStats noted that this championship match will be Cena’s tenth at WrestleMania. No other WWE Superstar has ever competed in so many championship bouts at WWE’s biggest event of the year.
His journey includes winning the United States Championship at WrestleMania 20 and 31, capturing his first WWE Championship at WrestleMania 21, and adding more WWE Championship reigns at WrestleMania 26 and 29. He also won the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 25.
While he faced title losses at WrestleMania 24 and 27 and most recently for the United States Championship at WrestleMania 39, his upcoming match against Rhodes gives him a record-setting chance. If he wins, he will break the all-time record for most World Title reigns.
