John Cena thought his bitter rivalry with Big Show ended when he delivered an Attitude Adjustment to the giant and pinned him at Judgment Day. But the 7-footer had other ideas.
The World’s Largest Athlete’s massive ego and vindictive streak just won’t let him accept defeat at the hands of Cena. That’s why, thanks to Show’s powerful business associate, Raw General Manager Vickie Guerrero, a rematch between the two Superstars has been set for Extreme Rules — and this time it’s a Submission Match.
Clearly, it’s a stipulation that was chosen carefully by the sadistic behemoth. Three times during their encounter at Judgment Day, Cena attempted to apply his STF submission hold to the mammoth Superstar, but he simply couldn’t get his arms around Big Show’s 485-pound frame to lock the hold in properly. Sensing that he disarmed one of the most devastating moves in Cena’s arsenal, The World's Largest Athlete sees a huge opportunity to defeat his nemesis in a match where making him tap out is the only path to victory.
Granted, Big Show is more feared for his raw power than his technical skill, but that doesn’t mean he can’t take advantage of the situation. Although Cena has looked healthy in recent weeks, his back and ribs may still be vulnerable from Backlash, when Big Show chokeslammed him through a 7,000-watt searchlight. If this incident is still affecting Cena, a simple Camel Clutch or Boston Crab from the goliath could spell doom for the wildly popular Superstar.
Whether or not Cena will be 100 percent for Extreme Rules is still unclear, but rest assured, when the heart and tenacity of John Cena collides with the mass and brutality of Big Show, the WWE Universe can expect an all-out war.

Re: WWE Extreme Rules - John Cena vs Big Show - Submission Match
It makes all kind of sense, except Cena should never have been able to beat Show at Judgment Day. It makes Show look weak, and does nothing of any real benefit for Cena. Everything else is fine, except the slow paced, plodding match style, but that was to be expected really.
Re: WWE Extreme Rules - John Cena vs Big Show - Submission Match
Well.. maybe. But on the other hand Cena beat Big Show with the Attitude Adjustment, using all of his last bit of energy after the STF didn't work. Now if he somehow manages to do that again, it still won't end the match. Still makes a lot of sense.
Re: WWE Extreme Rules - John Cena vs Big Show - Submission Match
Didn't look like Cena's last bit of energy though to me Ken. He was bouncing about like a puppy on speed for the last few minutes of that match. I think that quite honestly he should've lost, then challenged Show on Raw to a match, at which point Vickie makes this match, and we see Cena's face drop to the news that he's facing Show in a match he can't win. for the most part it'd be to give Cena's character some new facete's and it'd build the submission angle to the roof. Then Cena can win with the STFU (which will likely happen) and all is right with the WWE Universe.

I wouldn't say the last few minutes, but at the end when he was celebrating he no sold pretty bad.
But I don't know.. if Show won why would Vickie give them ANOTHER match? Show lost, so he has reason to want to have another match and it makes sense with the stip because Cena can't lock inthe STF so the Big Show will be unable to be in a submitting environment.
Eh I personally think aside from Cena's no selling it works much much better this way. To each their own.
Re: WWE Extreme Rules - John Cena vs Big Show - Submission Match
Vickie would give him the match because Show hadn't ended Cena's career as he wanted to and was up for another shot at him, in an environment where all the odds were stacked against Cena.
Re: WWE Extreme Rules - John Cena vs Big Show - Submission Match
I think it works with Cena winning the match at Judgment Day. I have not actually seen the match yet so I won't comment on the Cena selling, or lack thereof. However, the idea of Cena winning does make sense so a rematch can take place. The stipulation works in Show's favour as said, and I expect this to be pretty good.
