So when he challenged John Cena at WrestleMania 22 for the WWE Title, it seemed like a sure-fire win for the Game, who even said at a pre-Mania press conference that he was expecting it to be the easiest match of his life.

He was very wrong.

Instead, Cena pushed the newly-dubbed King of Kings to his limit, and whilst Triple H tried to push back, there was no overcoming the Doctor of Thuganomics.

Locking in the STF, the Game had no choice but to tap to Cena, learning a lesson in humility along the way, as the WWE Universe saw once and for all, who would be leading the company for the next decade.
