Surprisingly, there were only three title matches at WrestleMania 27. Only the WWE Championship, the WWE US Championship and the WWE World Heavyweight Championship were defended.

Believe it or not, matches ending in submission is not a common thing at WrestleMania. WrestleMania 20 was the first time a WrestleMania main-event ended in submission when Chris Benoit made Triple H tap to the Crippler Crossface.

As of date, only 20 WrestleMania matches have ended in submission. Could Asuka make it 21 tomorrow?

#1 John Cena

Regardless of where you stand on Cena, he's a sure-fire first-ballot Hall Of Famer and one of the greatest of all time.

Cena holds the distinction of either challenging for a title or gone on last at every WrestleMania he's competed in except for 2: WrestleMania 30 and last year when he teamed up with Nikki Bella to face The Miz and Maryse.
