Yet, they did it again, in typical WWE fashion. Yep, you could say this was a case of the WWE being the same as it ever was, letting the days go by until the rematch.

To be fair, them having a first ever meeting was "once in a lifetime."

Very astute point. By the way, I can't believe we're getting Team Hell No and the Undertaker vs The Shield on RAW. Really looking forward to that.

CM Punk was probably asking himself “How did I get here?”

CM Punk vs. Undertaker.
Streak vs. Streak.
Should've been the true main event at Wrestlemania 29. Make Rock vs. Cena 2 non title and mid-card.

Kayfabe - Rock won the title and Cena won the Royal Rumble. If those things didn't happen it wouldn't have happened again.
Non-kayfabe - Their match was the biggest money match in wrestling history. They'd have been crazy not to squeeze more out of it.

I'll never forget attending the 2013 Royal Rumble. As soon as Cena won The Rumble this disgusted fan sitting next to me screamed out "once-in-a-lifetime my ass!!!" By that point it was pretty obvious Rock was beating Punk in the main event and that fans disgust matched mine.

CM Punk was probably asking himself “How did I get here?” Fast forward to 2014, when the crowds were reacting negatively to the first few weeks of Wrestle Mania XXX buildup post-Rumble, and Vince was thinking “My God, what have I done?”

Seriously though, Mania 29 should have been a triple threat Rock vs Cena vs Punk.

I still say Cena should have won that match and that was the end of it.

Particularly stupid was having a years build for a months worth of story, rendered much of the year pointless for most of the roster. Just led to watching the days go by, letting Cena hold them down.

I mean, as morbid as it is to say, many people didn't make it to see their 2nd match.

Given the original Plan was to have Brock Squash Bryan as a " Wake Up Call" for the fans and not Cena . Yeh pretty much

I really enjoyed the first one, but the second was so unnecessary.
The arc to turn Cena heel after doubting himself in defeat is so easy from there and such a missed open goal. Cena v the Undertaker at WM29 with the streak still in tact - with Cena feeling the only way he can redeem himself is to end the streak would have been gold.

Although that turned out to be inaccurate, it was still less insufferable than WWE billing Cena/HHH II at Night of Champions '08 as "a moment in time".
So obnoxious. Match wasn't even that memorable.
