John Cena retains Undisputed WWE Championship at Backlash

John Cena is still Undisputed WWE Champion after escaping Backlash with a victory over his longtime rival Randy Orton. At Saturday night’s PLE, Cena and Orton faced off one last time as part of Cena’s retirement tour. This final meeting had a different dynamic than all of their previous matches with Orton — the beloved babyface in his hometown of St. Louis — challenging Cena for gold. But a low blow and a belt shot secured the win for Cena to remain Undisputed WWE Champion. The match lasted nearly 30 minutes and was full of finishing moves and ref bumps. Whenever Orton had the title won, the referee was knocked out and unable to count the pin in time. Orton let his frustration out at one point by RKOing SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis and other officials as they were checking on a referee. He then went to punt Cena in the head, but R-Truth — who claims Cena is his “childhood hero” — ran out to plead with Orton. Orton dropped Truth with an RKO, but that gave Cena time to low blow Orton and strike him wit
