John Cena and Randy Orton have both been World Champion on multiple occasions during the course of their respective careers. They perhaps faced each other with the WWE Championship hanging in the balance more than any other duo. One such match occurred at SummerSlam 2007. Orton was the challenger and Cena was the defending champion. They both fought tooth and nail to out-think and out-maneuver each other and establish themselves as bona fide top tier performers for the company.

Even though these two wrestlers had fought previously, the reason this match made this list is because of the larger-than-life spectacle they were able to create. The match was built up properly and the storyline resonated with the WWE Universe, making it one of the more memorable contests in SummerSlam history. In the end, Cena was successful in retaining his title against Orton after battling for twenty-one minutes.
