I was going through the WWE champs on WWE.COM And saw Rey won the WWE title a few years ago? I DO remember Cena and Rey having a title match for the new WWE title, but Cena won that! Didn't he?

When cm punk left the WWE with the title they had a tournament to crown a new one it came down to rey and someone else and rey won the match then cena was granted a title rematch that same night and cena won only for punk to come back that same night.

Stupid indeed but that match Rey and Cena had was a ing cracker! Great match. Probably the last of Rey's career.

The funny thing is his WWE Title reign is somehow more memorable to me than Swagger's world title reign.

I always thought it was quite the Heel-ish act of Cena using his rematch-clause the same night the Champion already had a match. They should of just had Cena in the Tournament or something in the first place.

Yep, that was something. Can't believe he lost it in an hour.

It was basically a "thank you" title win for the years of hard work and the huge merchandise sales he had. I wouldn't have minded Rey holding the title until SummerSlam, dropping it to Cena that night, and then Punk returning that night or the following night on Raw. Would have been better than the one hour reign we got.

I remember Cena and Rey backstage talking after Rey won the title. And I think Rey said something like he was ready to defend it or something. It's all really fuzzy for me except when Cena wins and then Punk comes back.

Same here man......I remember the fantastic match and Punk's amazing return....not much else. Hell in not even sure who Rey beat. I'm assuming Del Rio or R-Truth given the time.

He had that WH reign, but he can't have a title run, he was too much of an underdog to make a good story. Plus, booking him to win and lose the WWE title in the same night is typical Cena booking, lose the title to Punk, Rey wins the tournament then the WWE succubus comes in and gets another title shot for nothing. When he was supposed to be fired no less.

I remember that. Triple H literally just gave Cena a title match for no apparent reason when Cena came to see him in his office, thus rendering the entire tournament that Rey won pointless. The entire Punk storyline was rushed and botched so horribly after how hot it started off, and it was entirely because of Cena and Triple H.
