John Cena’s first pinfall win over Brock Lesnar

Brock Lesnar had many interactions with John Cena during his first run with WWE between 2002 and 2004, but “The Doctor of Thuganomics” was never able to pin his rival in a televised match at that stage of their careers.

Instead, Cena had to wait until April 2012 to finally pin Lesnar, with the long-awaited triumph coming at the end of an Extreme Rules match which left both Superstars with bloodied faces.

The physical encounter ended with Cena hitting Lesnar with an AA onto a set of steel steps before getting the 1-2-3.

John Cena’s first pinfall win over Kofi Kingston

This may come as a surprise, but the WWE match records show that John Cena has only ever recorded one televised pinfall victory over Kofi Kingston.

In September 2015, Cena was involved in a United States Championship rivalry with Seth Rollins, while The Prime Time Players were attempting to regain the Tag Team titles from The New Day.

This led to a six-man tag team match on Raw between Cena & The Prime Time Players and Big E, Kingston & Rollins, which resulted in Cena pinning Kingston after an AA.
