WWE's John Cena Elevates to Its Most Ornamented Title-Holder!
In a historic moment at WrestleMania 2025, John Cena captured his 17th WWE Championship, shattering Ric Flair's long-standing record of 16 recognised world titles. Abdullah Ashour, Sports Editor and Translator for 'Al-Bawaba News,' reported on the action-packed event.
The New Day (Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods) also made a triumphant return, taking down the War Raiders to reclaim the tag team gold. The weekend was not just about records, as The New Day's victory marked a significant moment in the tag team division.
WWE made waves with a surprise acquisition of Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide, one of Mexico's top wrestling promotions. This move signifies WWE's global ambitions, part of a $5 billion, 10-year deal that will see WWE's weekly and monthly programming land on Netflix.
Despite the criticism over excessive product placement and advertisements during WrestleMania 2025, dubbed 'Ad-a-Mania,' many fans felt the action-packed card and no additional cost for Netflix subscribers made the trade-off worth it. The Netflix stream of the event ran smoothly, despite some technical concerns ahead of the event.
The weekend was filled with exciting moments, including Jacob Fatu capturing the United States Championship with a win over LA Knight, Dominik Mysterio winning his first WWE title, taking home the Intercontinental Championship, and Jey Uso defeating Gunther to win the World Heavyweight Championship, capturing his first world title and surpassing the legacy of his father, Rikishi.
