Rock’s WrestleMania Opponent Confirmed

During tonight’s episode of WWE Monday Night Raw, John Cena defeated CM Punk in the main event, and will advance to WrestleMania 29 on April 7th to face the Rock for the WWE Championship.

The match was booked as a huge victory for Cena, as Michael Cole continually put over the fact that he has been unable to defeat CM Punk on several occasions in the past two years. The match featured several near-falls, include one following a classic Piledriver from Punk.

Congrats John.. Its official: Wrestlemania 29 @wwe Heavyweight Champion The Rock vs @johncena Greatness vs Redemption #BringIt
