The World Heavyweight Championship Triple Threat match at WrestleMania XXV was a showcase of power, strategy, and rivalry, featuring three of WWE’s biggest superstars: Edge, John Cena, and Big Show. Each competitor brought their unique attributes to this high-stakes encounter, making it one of the highlights of the event.
Edge, the reigning champion, entered the match with his trademark arrogance and a history of cunning victories. John Cena, the relentless fan favorite, was determined to reclaim the title and overcome the odds. Meanwhile, Big Show, the imposing giant, presented a formidable challenge with his unmatched size and strength.
The build-up to this clash was fueled by personal rivalries, particularly the love triangle storyline involving Edge, Big Show, and Vickie Guerrero. Cena, always quick to exploit mind games, added fuel to the fire by exposing the tensions between Edge and Big Show in the weeks leading up to WrestleMania.
As the match began, the energy in Reliant Stadium was electric. Big Show used his size advantage to dominate early, tossing both Edge and Cena around like ragdolls. However, Cena’s resilience and Edge’s cunning tactics quickly turned the match into a chaotic back-and-forth.
Edge demonstrated why he was known as the “Ultimate Opportunist,” targeting Big Show’s knees to neutralize the giant. Cena, on the other hand, relied on his raw strength and stamina, even managing to hoist both Edge and Big Show simultaneously for an incredible double Attitude Adjustment, leaving the crowd in awe.
The turning point came when Edge attempted a Spear on Cena, only for Cena to sidestep and send Edge crashing into Big Show. Seizing the moment, Cena delivered a decisive Attitude Adjustment to Edge, pinning him for the three-count and capturing the World Heavyweight Championship.
The victory was a testament to Cena’s grit and determination, solidifying his status as one of WWE’s top stars. The match’s blend of personal drama, jaw-dropping moments, and athleticism made it a standout on the WrestleMania XXV card, earning its place in WWE lore.
