#4 Big Show sends John Cena into a spotlight (2009)

The Triple Threat match for World Heavyweight Championship at 'Mania 25 was a fun little affair that fell victim to a drained crowd after Undertaker and Shawn Michaels' historic match.

However, that Backlash PPV is most fondly remembered for Cena's impressive feat of strength where he lifted both Big Show and Edge simultaneously to deliver the Attitude Adjustment and win the World Heavyweight Title.

Unlike the contest at 'Mania, Edge and John Cena were wrestling a phenomenal Last Man Standing Match for the World Title in the main event of the 2009 edition of Backlash. The added stipulation added something extra for both superstars as the action spilled outside the ring, allowing both of them to bring out more offensive maneuvers from their arsenal.

Near the end of the match, Cena had Edge on his shoulders and was about to send him down the stage when the third wheel in the 'Mania match, The Big Show, came on the stage, picked Cena up and chokeslammed him into a nearby spotlight to the surprise of everyone in the crowd.

The spotlight burst with a big explosion, which knocked Cena out cold. He failed to answer to the 10 count, giving Edge the victory and the World Title.
